The TRUTH about the PS3's backwards compatibility...


Title:
The TRUTH about the PS3's backwards compatibility...

Description:
FIXED in firmware 1.50! PS1/PS2 upscaling in 1.80! But it's not REAL upscaling. Why? Cause the polygons themselves aren't rendered in high def, the entire image output is just put through a filter to make it look upscaled. The same method is used for upscaling DVD picture quality to 720p/1080i/1080p. ============================ The glitch shown in this video only occurs on firmwares earlier than 1.5! Discussion thread: http://boardsus.playstation.com/playstation/board/message?board.id=ps3&thread.id=808212&view=by_date_ascending&page=1 ZDnet news article: http://blogs.zdnet.com/hardware/?p=190 High Res Version: http://www.themasors.com/videos/ps3_bc_quality.wmv (Thanks Beau Griffin) PS anyone who thinks I'm a fanboy is a moron. I want this issue fixed just as much as anyone else.

Assassins Creed PS3 vs Xbox360 TRUE Comparison
SPREAD THE WORD! The GameTrailers comparison of the PS3 version to the 360 version is wrong! This video proves it! by just enabling RGB Full Range in Display Settings, the game will look the same as the 360 version. Here is the GT Comparison: http://www.gametrailers.com/player/28006.html This technique also works on most PS3 mulitplatform games. e.g. The Darkness Oblivion Beowulf The Game *Sorry for the bad quality, I was using my Digital Camera* UPDATE: Im surprised at how many people have responded to this video, so thank you for your surport. FAQ's Q) Where did you get the song from which is playing in this video? A) Its the song from the 'Assassins Creed Soundtrack' and I found it by typing: 'Assassins Creed Soundtrack' on google. Q) Does this damage you PS3 in anyway? A) No, it is perfectly safe for your console and will not overheat it. There is a 0.02% failure rate on a PS3. Q) Is this only for HD displays or can it work on PAL tv's? A) I'm sorry but these settings are only work on HDTV's via HDMI. Q) Does this work on other games other than Assassins Creed? A)It works on all games, some you shall notice a huge difference, others not alot. I saw a big difference on Assassins Creed, Turok and some others. It mainly shows well on Cross platform titles, but exclusives it doesn't show as much (like Uncharted) Since the develoupers have clearly optermised it for the PS3.
