okay so me and LetItRip both have 1080p sony tv’s and we were trying to set out ps3’s up for the 1080p. Well for some odd reason it will not reconize anything higher then 1080i?

anyone know why?

another thing too shouldent it have full surround? we cannot get to work off the back speakers.

Cables being used:  
HDMI-Video  
Fiber Optic-Sound

And Its NHL 2K7 for the game

If the surround sound is anything like ps2’s you only get surround sound on cut scenes… Also from what I’ve read on google the game doesn’t do 1080p, only 720p (or 1080i).

According to several forums I looked at Most Sony SXRD models are not capable of input in 1080p.

Basically it takes 1080i, combines the two, and draws it using a progressive scan and calls it 1080p. A lot of forum posts about this exact issue with any PS3 game. Welcome to the world of Sony. 🙂

Wrong. The XBR2’s can accept an input of 1080p via HDMI. Your forum posts are mostly about people whining that there composite input isn’t being upconverted to 1080p

NHL 2K7 only does 1080i. It’s not very likely that you’ll find cross-platform games adding 1080p capability just for one system.

THe 360 is the only platform that will upscale a game from 720p or 1080i to 1080p. The PS3 is locked to the game mode for resolution.
