    The game isn't a true 1080p game though, they are still a rare bird. It likely was created at 720p, or even a bit less. I can't recall a 360 or PS3 game that didn't say 1080p compatible on the back of the box, but ya gotta remember, that isn't necessarily what it was created at.

      That is very true. Wonder how much work it is for them to make it into a true 1080p game. I'm not pissing and moaning about this i mean this game is AMAZING. Was just wondering.

        The problems not in making the game really run in 1080p, it's in making the consoles be able to handle it, with a minimum of 30fps, in 1080p and so far, that isn't too common.

        Even major release games like the Halo series and Call of Duty series, aren't 1080p and in the case of the Halo games, some of them are even UNDER 720p.

          Holy Cow i didn't know that about some of the halo games. Haven't played halo since the original xbox. I didn't think about FPS. Yeah i bet they wouldn't be able to get this game to run at 60fps when doing 1080p. To much stuff going on all the time

            I think COD is 1080p.

                Nope.

                XBOX 360
                Call of Duty 3 = 1040x624 (2xAA)
                Call of Duty: Black Ops = 1040x608 (2xAA)
                Call of Duty: Modern Warfare = 1024x600 (2xAA)
                Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 = 1024x600 (2xAA)
                Call of Duty: World at War = 1024x600 (2x AA)

                PS3
                Call of Duty 3 (screenshot) ~1088x624 (2xAA)
                Call of Duty: Black Ops = 960x544 (2xAA)
                Call of Duty: Modern Warfare = 1024x600 (2xAA)
                Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 = 1024x600 (2xAA)
                Call of Duty: World at War = 1024x600 (2x AA)

                      720p looks much better. Less jaggy.

                        720p is NOT better, or less jaggy, than 1080p content. How can something have more resolution, yet have more jaggies and look worse? It just is not possible.

                          Unless there is an option to change the game to 1080p I don't know about, the game looked a lot smoother to me once I turned off 1080p.

                            It looks bad in 1080p because it wasn't made in 1080p (probably not even in 720p) and thus it is upscaled, and upscales almost always look worse.

                              A 720p native image may look better than its 1080p upsampled one.
