Call of Duty 3 and Tony Hawk's Project 8 for the 360 are rendered at much lower resolutions. One is 624p and the other is 584.


The "Games-Aktuell" magazine found out that the testversions of Call of Duty 3 were only running @ 1040x624 pixels, while Tony Hawk's Project 8 only had some 1040x584 pixels resolution. Compared to the native 720p resultion 1280x720 the war-shooter is lacking about 30% of resolution, whereas the skateboarding game loses 34 percent. With HD accessories like beamers this results in a decrease of overall quality.

By reducing resolution, the framerate would increase in most cases. While CoD3 runs absoultely flawless most of the time, Tony Hawk still has some heavy lagging.

Cynamite.de asked Activision Germany about this. There this issue was not known up to now. But we were promised that this would be investigated. We stay tuned for you...

What does this have to do with PS3?

Wrong forum guv! But that would account for the extra sharpness in the Ps3 version.

How does Tony Hawk 8 play on the PS3? The Xbox 360 version was not even that great, there was lag and the physics felt last-gen. ;)

Is the PS3's TH title next-gen?
