Question cod 4: resolution

i was playing call of duty 4 and i turned the tv off to eat then when i turned it back on my tv said it was broadcasting in 720p but on the back of the game it says it can do 1080p. i have a sony xbr 4 and have some really nice hdmi cables. when i turn on the ps3 it says its doing 1080p so why doesn't it for cod4. i really want to see it in 1080p.

I have a new 1080p tv running at 120htz and COD4 does not seem to be in 1080p. It looks great but I think it is running in 1080i or 720p. I have tried different settings but to no avail.

you need to disable the 720p from your ps3 menu

then it should run at 1080p

Go into display settings and i forget exactly but you can check mark boxes on 480P, 720P,1080I and 1080P. Just make sure that 720P is not checked. This is by the way the work around for the COD4 problem.

can i still play games like rfom that can only do 720p or will i have to go back and check 720p that sounds like kind of a hassle

these games claiming to be 1080p r using tricks to be able to put it on the box. its basically the same thing if u went to a store and saw a bd and upconverting player. both say 1080p only one is native. the game devs dont have to acknowledge that its not native. its very confusing

cod4 has amazing animation and anti aliasing thats what makes the graphics great. not its detail which is pretty low res. graphics dont equal resolution. kz2 is only 720 and it has amazing grafix
