Default Halo 3 not quite HD

Quote:
Halo 3 is one of the fastest-selling games ever created, and also one of the highest scoring when it comes to critical reception. How aggravating, then, that its graphics have been found to be sub-par. Microsoft specifies that games on the Xbox 360 system must render at a resolution of at least 720p - that's 1280x720 to you PC folks. The 360 will then either output that or upscale it to 1920x1080 for output on larger displays.

However, spurred on by the blatant jaggies apparent through the game, interwibblers have discovered that the game only actually runs at 1152x640, a difference big enough to create a noticeable drop in graphics quality.

God what a misleading thing of garbage. They are using two frame buffers which offers higher resolution. Nice try.

He's just trying to bash. Let's give him his limelight.
