babcat's favourite showing of E3

You can't refuse to play at 1080p if games render at 1080p, unless you play on PC and can set the resolution yourself.

You can limit the output to 720p on the PS3. There's auto detect, and then there's a manual check list of useable resolutions.

I remember limiting the output to 720p for a PSN game which ran at 30fps at 1080p and 60fps on 720p

QD demo looked great.

According to this, maybe PS4's QD game looks even better.

But that was not my favourite part of the show.

This part of Destiny's gameplay was mindblowing for me, great lighting,

I liked the part that the single light creates shadows when going thorugh complex geometry (between pipes etc.). That said the faux glow was too evident and left a sour taste (they seemed to use a billboard technique, it was transparent... One thing about glows is you don't expect them to show through, if something is bright enough to glow, it should eat its background.)

I've done that, but I expect every console game that targets 1080p to render 1080p, and simply downscale for 720p output. Or even just output 1080p because every TV with HDMI can downscale itself. Devs aren't going to take on the work of rendering to different resolutions any more IMO as all digital HDMI output guarantees every attached display can cope with the same singular output format.
