Yes, but that's only for game released since mid 2007. Also, they won't be upscaled by default: you have to go through your display options and uncheck all the other resolutions which is also incredibly annoying if you have games that don't support the upscaling feature.BIGTYMA said:
Really poor functionality, imo. PS2 games upscale quite well, so i dont know why ps3 games can't be (e.g. those people in the thread said they look worse when upscaled).
Hi guys. Could you please be brutally honest with how the below pics look. Yesterday I was in my TV's system menu and accidentally calibrated my HDMI port (which completely screwed up the settings). I had to download a checkerboard pattern for the 360 and recalibrate it. However, it most certainly looks different to before. I'm not sure if that's in a good or bad way?
An example of the changes made upon recalibration of the port is clear when running the halo 3 TV calibration disc. Previously even at 100 contrast the image was visible. Now at 95 the image becomes visible. Brightness had to be increased. Colours seem to be much more intense (e.g. Bioshock health bar reds are redder).
Pics below. Have I completely screwed up my TV or made it better? First two are before/after:

sadly im going to sacrifice the hdmi quality for ease of access once i get the vga cable i ordered. atm im using the hdmi connection on my monitor for both my xbox and computer, so i have to keep switching the cables around whenever i want to use one or the other

yeah it does look a bit better, the only problem i have is that when i move around the walls look kind of, er, glittery. Kind of hard to describe without screenshots.
lol i'm an incredible retard. turns out I adjusted the G-offset white level 10pts below what it was meant to be. Looks much better now Yay! The statue in bioshock was way too red in my photo. Whilst it looks better from a photography standpoint (closer to the statue), the colours actually look correct given the surroundings. Too much of a red push
Now it looks perfect:

halcyon, if you're using a pc monitor, microsoft announced at e3 that with the dashboard update there will be specific support for monitor resolutions. should be able to optimise the picture when that update comes
