all in order
480P 4:3
480p widescreen
720p widescreen
1080I widescreen
480p outrun2 widescreen

these are direct screen shots i took from my moded development xbox.
the dolphin screen shots are very crude 3d models but you can see how much more area you get for detail.
look at outrun 2 a game that looks great as is but imagine how much more detailed it could look at 1080I

if you cant see how higher resolution can make the difference you have something wrong with your visual senses and your opinion does not count.
i dont care about all the bullshit reasons why tom, dick and hairy do not have HD tvs.

you can not cram too many more polygons into a limited screen size of 480p.
to see all the new advancements in detail you will need a HD display.

it is just a fact HD can and does make a difference in a video game environment.

before some jackass says this post is retarded back your self with some facts other than ignorance.

this is common stuff for anyone with a clue about audio/video setups in the home. the trouble is John Q. Dumbass doesn't know shit about TV's besides what bestbuy tells him, they don't care if their system is running 480i upconverted to 1080i...

someone who has never experienced HDTV gaming would shit themselves if you showed them a game like halo 2 running in only 480p on a 50+ inch 16x9.

genesis vs 1080P
genesis = 320X220 same as 220p in this screen shot.
the genesis screen shot has been laid on a 1080P back ground.
look how much more screen there is that relates to lack of detail.

Sarcasm Vs Dumbass-ism.

The current screenshot has been given a bit more detail by photoshop. Look how much more sense my post makes now.

Honestly, those just look like screenshots to me. I'm not denying that they don't look good, I just have nothing to compare it to. Can anyone show me some side by side comparisons?

Why do you have a Mickey Mouse game?

Anyway meh. It looks like stuff on my(when it was working) 15" LCD screen. Nothing that amazing to me I guess.

Guys he's not trying to show the quality difference. He's wanting you to see how much more information can be cramped into your set when running at higher resolutions. If you want ZOMG grafix go check out my HDR HL2 thread.

PUNJABEE,
ouch i have not been called a turd burglar in years ......

DXMachina

are you serious?
all the comparisons are lined up what more do you need?
look how tiny the outrun2 screen shot looks compared to the finale 1080I dolphin screen shot.
you can only dream of the detail that could be used in and good 1080I games.
the game systems today can not push a enough polygons to show you the true power the future has to offer.
there are some early 1080i games now but the programmers have to limit the frame rate, polygons and effects.
in return that kind of kills the over all detail.
you need enough power to take advantage of everything frame rate, resolution, effects and polygon count.



ok a doom3 pc screen shot and a doom3 pc screen shot in that order.
doom3 on xbox is only 480p
the pc doom is a little over 720P

Mark of the Wolves,
why does a dog lick his balls because he can.

that is not just any Mickey mouse game.
its Mickey Mouse - Castle of Illusion! one of the 1st graphic whore games for the genesis.
back in the day that had smooooth animation and some of the 1st pseudo transparent effects....


i see you have good taste in guys tonk ;)
but sorry i dont think you have big enough juggz for my taste.....

that is an old pic when i used my wega as my main display.
thats is just my system link up tv now for my friends to use :p

all kidding aside..

i like all systems. i just think any new ones have to evolve or there is no need for them to come out. if there is no evolution just keep making games for the older systems. i really dont see a need to release the new systems yet but if they are going to... make them have some balls.!
every new launch is about the specs then good games to back those specs...
the detail need to make the next systems worthy would require a HD display.


these pictures just show how much more information/ detail you can have in a game. as i said the dolphin screen shots are crude.....

when you have the xdk(xbox development kit) dash,bios, and pc software with .net on your pc you can capture video and pictures straight from your xbox.
plus the xdk comes with a ton of cool tech demos that you compile in .net and upload to your xbox.(hence the dolphin demo)
i did all that crap to make my xbox a debug system so i could final make a steel battalion trainer.....fucking hard ass game .....but so cool..
got my trainer made released it and beat the game end of story...

So you are not using a real Debug/Dev system, you are using a standard Xbox with a Complex/TATX/GueuxNet BIOS?

you can have your xbox run as both retail and debug if you do the right tricks.

I was thinking this may be a sweet way to capture match video and game tricks.

Acem,

I'm not completely tech savvy in these regards.

But, as far as Outrun2 goes, wouldn't it look just the same on the HDTV. Like you said, 1080i alpha gold plus ex only facilitates more details to be shown by polygons, but since those polygons don't actually exist the argument is bunk.

In the future this may matter. But, as JHendrix said, I believe, that may be a few years down the road - and only be a factor introduced mid-generation. Maybe - maybe not. Anyway, I just want to know if I'm understanding this correctly, because the whole issue is a bit more conceptual than visual... at the moment.

Thanks
