Frank White · 06-13-2008, 10:20 PM

hi i only have a 1080i/720p set andwas wondering if its best to uncheck 1080i on my ps3 settings to play mgs4? all my other games look good in 720p and mgs4 doesnt look impressive at all in 1080i . anyone play theirs on 720p only?

I would skip this game, gametrailers.com only gave the story an 8.7.

Wow, this is one of the dumbest posts I've ever seen.

That was a sarcasm probably? To the OP, I've seen MGS4 in 720 with my friend's TV and it looks good. Give it a try OP.

I would like to know about it also as all games in general, I have a Mitsubishi WD-52525 DLP almost 4 years old and is native 720p but accepts everything except 1080p. Would it be better to let the PS3 do the scaling or my 4 year old TV same applies for Blu-ray?

(My basement is being finished and will be getting a 1080p TV but we have had to fire the builders as they worked April-September and showed up 2 times since so we fired them last month.)

And IGN only gave it a 10. Sounds like a horrid game if that's all they give it.

Anyways, to the OP, Try to run it under both and see which one you prefer. That's the easiest way to do it to suit it to your taste. You might find you like the 1080i better then the 720p, or the 720p blows the 1080i out the water.

I fail to see what relevance this has to the OP's question. I play the game on a TV that displays 720p/1080i, I have only ever played games on 720p mode (always have 1080i unchecked) as I prefer the look in 720p. MGS4 looks excellent on my TV in 720p so I'd suggest that.

What is the native resolution of MGS? And please let it be 1080p

Mikeblu · 06-13-2008, 11:02 PM

Its showing up as 1080i on my 1080i TV

Frank White · 06-13-2008, 11:42 PM

yeah it outputs 1080p also. it looks better on 720p than 1080i. so ill just uncheck 1080i every time i play it. thanks guys.

Man, I love how no one on the boards here can get when someone uses sarcasm. The 2nd post you are all complaining about was just being sarcastic, based upon a thread...still on this front page!

blu-dave · 06-14-2008, 01:18 PM

Why ask here, just untick it and see for yourself which looks best!
Don't need other peoples opinions to tell tou what looks better!

I personaly find that there is very little difference in 1080i/720p
only that u fit more data on screen when browsing the internet at 1080i.!
