Cant help ya with the TV mate...but its about COD4

All I need for 1000 points and completion of COD4 is Mile High Club on Veteran

After hours of trying tonight I finally reach the VIP, thought to myself - Ill make sure of this one, shot him in the leg while attempting to get a very clear shot on his head.





WHAT HAPPENS....


You Fail - A true veteran uses a headshot or sumthing stupid like that



.....And back to the start I go

I cannot emphasis how horrible that was for me, I really cant describe it.

I doubt ps3 would be able to run games at full 1080p at a decent frame rate anyway.

Also trying to run 1080i on a 720 resolution screen will make it look worse due to the downscaling of resolution.

COD4 is an awesome game. I played it on 720p with my XBOX 360 Elite and the graphics were still awesome.

Parents are getting a Full 1080 soon so I will have to move to there.

COD4 is for console kiddies who cant play a real game. Health regeneration and team mates that cannot die is not my idea of a realistic military shooter, look beyond the graphical features. The immersion in single player is the thing that sticks out, and was pretty fun, but if you want a real game try something like GRAW 1 or 2.

COD4 is a pretty good game, on PC like every other FPS.

COD4 on PC is awesome.

Playing on a 22" widescreen. Graphics are unreal.

I play it online all the time.

You can still use iron sights / optics in hardcore, and there are advantages to it. The multiplayer is pretty fun, especially on a 24" with a new rig, it's only the unrealistic scripted single player that gives me the sh^ts.

thanks for the replies guys
the x series tv i got is a full 1080p tv.
my question is why the 720p looks better than the 1080p ???
i understand that 1080i worse.
The ps3 can support 1080p on some games like virtua tennis 3 so im not sure about this one

I finished the game 1000 achievement points. Mile High Club was incredibly hard I reckon I attempted it 2- 3 hundred times.

Online on PC is excellent, especially hardcore servers. Sounds like the achievements on console are annoying. Just scored my silencer for the AK47 and M14, UAV Jammer, claymores and dead silence and I'm good to go.
