Your Xbox doesn't run anything at 1080p. It may upconvert stuff from 480p, 540p, or 720p, but there is very little, if any, native 1080p on the Xbox. Your finances are your business, so that's a legitimate concern, but your statements about relative quality are somewhat misinformed.
edit: Didn't you have to buy a replacement 360? Where is that cost factored in?
I honestly don't give a shit if it is or isn't true 1080, if it looks good enough for me then that's all I care about.Quote:

Like I said w Yoshi in the other thread, can we all just stop this PC v Console shit?
X is best! I'm comfortable with Y! SHFLKJDHFLKHJSKFJHDKJFH ad infinitum.
How y'all feel about Tomb Raider?
I'm excited as hell for it. I also found this article about how this is truly the first entry where Crystal Dynamics has really taken ownership of the series instead of trying to work in Core's shadow very interesting.
I sold the old one off to help finance the newer one I bought.Quote:

I never cared for the others, but for whatever reason I'm really liking the look and atmosphere of this.
I think that's why a reboot has a better chance at bringing in a newer audience compared to the older style games that might have had a dwindling one but it'll be interesting to compare this reboot to DmC as far as financially and gameplay wise.Quote:
