Resolution help...

[Syphongamer08]

Okay so I need some help with my ps3. Usually my dad plays it downstairs on our new tv, which hapens to be a 50 hd. So of course we would play it on hdmi. But when I take it back up stairs to my old piece of shit tv that dont have hdmi, it puts it on 480i. Now i know there is a way to change it to 720p with just regular cords but I dont know how...? Since my way old tv dont support hdmi how to i put it in 720p res? with regular cords

[WhoIsYou]

No... You can't.
Whoever said you can is retarded.

[Syphongamer08]

awww weally? it looks like shit

[WhoIsYou]

Tis unfortunate.

Some games look good in 480i though, like SOCOM isn't too bad (still much better in HD though).
Other games like fallout 3 are unplayable though (well they are, but it's blurry as fuck and hurts your eyes)

[xWhite_Shadowx]

Socom was unbearable in SD for me. Now that I've gone HD, I can't go back.

You can play in 720p with component cables...I did it for months.

Fyi, component = 5 colored plugs, not the ryw...that's composite.

Yus of course, but I'm quite certain he's talking about composite.

[Syphongamer08]

Yus of course, but I'm quite certain he's talking about composite.

Yea see I thought there was a way to go 720p with composite, but i guess not. I'll just go compontent and stick with semi-high-def

[xWhite_Shadowx]

720p with component still looks bad ass. That's what I used until I found my HDMI cable. But of course, nothing beats full 1080p, its like better than real life haha

Oooh ooooh I should mention that SOCOM doesn't go passed 720p (same with a lot of other games), oooh and yeah, MW2 only runs at 600p I believe.
So I'm not sure what games you've played at 1080p that look like real life... Definitely not Braid or Trine. :p


Nub =]

[Syphongamer08]

Im not sure what I should get, im stuck on the decision of just buying a new tv wth hdmi because my tv is older than me (it was my dads handie down) or just go and buy some component cables

Read the back of the box of the game you have noob.

Socom runs on: 720p, 1080i, 1080p

MW2 runs on: 720p, 1080i, 1080p

I thought YOU would be smart enough to look these up, but I guess I underestimated you.

You're retarded.
That's what's supported, not what it uses.
MW2 is 600p, that's all you get. Try with 1080p or 720p connection, you'll see, identical graphics.
And socom is either 720p or lower.

Nub.

Edit:
Here's some proof for you.

Now stfu faggot. <3

[xWhite_Shadowx]

Where's proof that Socom's 1080p isn't true 1080p?

Aside from some fanboy site saying so without proof.

And that MW2 thing isn't confirmed by Infinity Ward themselves, so I won't believe it. Source has to be directly from IW, not just Beyond3D forum.

You're such an idiot.
I'm not wasting my time searching for further proof, it's there, and I don't see how it's a fanboy site, and about 9001 other sites say the same thing.
Be ignorant if you want, you're still wrong.




So anyway, @syphon, as I said earlier. 720p is fine, as many many games are ran in 720p or less anyway.

Aww pussy hurt Canad can't prove it because Slant 6 never said 1080p isn't full 1080p. I don't care, you can be an idiot all you want <3

[WhoIsYou]

Pussy hurt? How so.
You're the one losing out by being ignorant.
Go around saying MW2 is full 1080p people will just think you're an idiot. Doesn't hurt my non-existent pussy, just yours. :]

[BLack_OpsKiLLa]

I'm pretty sure the only true 1080p game out there is metal gear solid 4.

Gta4 plays in 1080p

You have no 100% proof that Socom/MW2 don't play full 1080p unless you yourself heard from a Slant 6/IW dev. I'm not pussy hurt at all, your opinion doesn't really bother me.

It's not my opinion, it's been proven by others.

Oh and just because a dev from IW says it, that wouldn't make it 100% proof either, because 1) could be lying, 2) they could be misinformed.

Like I said, be ignorant if you want, your loss, makes you look like an idiot.

A game developer would have to know that for a fact when given a interview. As in they are prepared with answering questions like that. If they were lying or misinformed then someone else from the company would correct them on another interview or press conference

[Syphongamer08]

SO FAGGOTS! Should i just get component cables?

Not every developer knows about every part of the game, sorry to tell you.

[BLack_OpsKiLLa]

If you are given an interview you are obviously prepd with questions and answers before you answer anything. Seeing how this question is something that would be often asked about a game i would have to disagree with you on that. I never said all game developers knew that i was talking about people that are given interveiws. and xwsx was talking about that.

No, WS was talking about an answer from a Dev, said nothing about an interview where the question and answers were given before hand.



Anyway, point is;
WS is ignorant.
And syphon could go all out and get an HDTV with HDMI for best results, but component will do him justice as well, as many games are 720p or less.

[_PRaLiNeS_]

when I had myPS3 connected to the tv downstairs anymore and It would switch resolutions the screen would turn black for a second and it would pop up at whichever resolution was being used, so you'd know. Call of duty was 720p.


How big is the TV though? because if its like 32" or smaller you really can't tell the difference between 1080p and 720p

[Syphongamer08]

Well our tv downstairs is 50 but my ancient tv (22 yrs.) is 26? I also think that it only supports 480i
