Whatever resolution you actually output to, the game still actually renders internally at 1920x1080 and then down-samples it to the target resolution.

therefore the game runs best on a true 1920 x 1080 panel, correct?
any actual image downsampling the console has to do would surely have an adverse effect on gameplay due to the added work that needs to be done - correct?
im so glad i have my little 24' HDMI computer monitor, 1080p looks phenomenal on it.
captaingrim - would you have an idea about the data output of the PS3 in regards to image and sound down the HDMI cable? what sort of cable bandwidth (in gbp/s) would be sufficient if you have any idea?
I believe the down-sampling to lower resolutions is "hidden" inside other full screen post-processing things, so it shouldn't make a difference. Crob is the best person to answer these kinds of questions though... And I don't really know about HDMI bandwidth issues. I've got a cheapy 2m one of ebuyer and it works a treat :)
A dev posts on here? nice!! the game looks and plays amazing, Thank you for making such a great game, Does the cell play a big part on making this game run and look so great??
HAHA what a perfectly executed PR answer ;)
Not to mention actually true. Which is certainly a change for PR. :g
Yes the Cell processor is absolutely necessary - without the Cell processor, you'd just get a black screen - nothing would happen when you turn it on.
It is possible to prove this with your own PS3, although your warranty may be affected.
</sarcasm>
Yes the Cell, especially the SPUs do a lot of the heavy lifting in WOHD, especially in terms of lighting.
I never would have noticed this before, and I still don't notice it now :cowboy
Does anyone at SL not have a sense of humor? lol
