On my smaller older TV (42 inch about 6 or 7 year old Panasonic Plasma) i can honestly say that the difference between 720p and 1080p is pretty much unnoticeable. Can't tell the difference particularly in visual fidelity between DVD and Blu-ray.
However, when viewing these things on my 60 inch, the difference is huge. I mean massive.
I don't think on TV's the difference between 30fps and 60fps though is hugely noticeable, on either display. PC i notice it a lot more on, maybe because closer, maybe because of higher resolutions, i'm unsure, but as far as consoles go, 1080p and 30FPS is perfectly acceptable, and looks wonderful.
Sad thing is, Bioshock (the first one) succeeded at this on PS3 in 2008. nearly 6 years ago. And is still one of the best games visually on PS3.
I do not understand why so many early games on ps3 had 1080p but it became more rare as time went on. I would have thought more power and better optimisation etc would come later in the console cycle.
Anyways, regardless if the guy was trolling or asking a legitimate question, that is NOT how a company should EVER fucking respond.
You have to treat everyone as serious, or you will not be, at best, and loathed for your high-horsiness at worse.
Douche answer was douchey, and expected by now.
Really want to want an X1, but it's getting harder by the day.
