    Question Mafia 2 1080p question?

    Most games right now only support 720p resolution, I know you can upscale to 1080i but 720p still looks better. Will Mafia 2 support 1080p resolution, because it seriously looks better compared to 720p. If you ever played Wipeout HD you can tell how everything just looks crisper

    So does anyone know?

    I doubt we will see 1080p until the next generation of consoles arrive.

    Let's hope it supports 1080p, it would be beatiful to explore Empire City in HD.

    Xbox fanboy begging for 1080p? Sorry, not going to happen- or may be it will happen if the devs shot the graphics even further.

    I doubt that. Many games can't even do 720p.

    Come on Frank, I know this guy is extremely irritating and negative and frankly I pity him. But don't lose your temper, he isn't worth the time. And Newhandle, you are a sad person, the only thing you can is comment. Well I'd like to see you do a better job then the devs so why don't you keep that big mouth of yours shut and create your own game on your precious PC. To point out how annoying you act, Frank Fontaine is probably the most active member on this forum, he never insults anybody and he is very polite. Yet you made this angry and use offensive language... Normally I'd say no offence but in this case it would just be lie. And of you make one more insulting comment, I won't rest before you get banned. This isn't a theat, just consider it a warning.

    On topic: count me in for 1080p!

    I'd go for 1080 If possible also. I have a 360 and very good HD TV so if M2 supports Full HD, I'll be saving for an HDMI cable.

    Lol, gaming without HDMI cable is a crime! Just kidding, but you may concider buying it right away, those things cost less then £ 5,00 these days.

    So calling someone a Xbox fanboy is offensive? And yet the Plethora of F works directed toward me, and calling me sad, isn't? You're just another example of what the Xboxers are notoriously known for. And no, I didn't take your language offensive at all, quite frankly, I deal with it everyday.

    Back on topic, M2 is too much for the Xbox @ 1080p.

    Haha, you really don't know anything do you. I'm not an x-box fanboy because I don't even have an x-box. I'm a straight edge PC-gamer, it shows how fast you react with so little knowledge. I know Frank Fountaine used offensive language towards you, he was wrong and he probably knows but you may have to overthink what caused it. You are a troll, face it and you got Frank so far he fed you. Well congratulations, you messed up these forums, you broke the moral and you got every x-box player to be angry with you. So will you please just take a hike, it seems you completed your goals anyway. Some people would say you're psychological textbook example... Since you never answered the question, I'll pose it again: you're not loved around here and you don't seem to like Mafia II so why are you still here? And by the way, maybe you shouldn't have to handle this kind of language every day if you would act differently. Seriously: act you age, will you.

    I'd appreciate it if you guys stopped feeding the troll,the way you guys are acting,you'd think you guys are the trolls. I will delete comments that aren't on-topic.

    Now back onto topic:

    You're right, I apologize.

    Seems like you should ask 2K to do it, I think they'll listen to you . Guessing there are so many games in 1080p atm (speaking about ps3) they probably will add 1080p on console.

    You're the moderator, being higher up on the food chain you could probably answer all the questions we have.... Or at least in a perfect world you would be able to

    Having a HD TV and a Xbox (All hail the RROD) I would love to see 1080p

    I'll say to 2K, if you get native 1080p without sacrificing any graphics or content. I'll buy an HD TV with an HDMI cable for my PS3, just because of Mafia 2 (and Bioshock 2, if it has that option).

    *monkeywrench* = This link is good^^

    And for the question,i think that it is impossible to make mafia 2 playable at a native 1080p resolution.Its not a question of, "will 2k make it or not?" Its just an hardware limitation.And it seems that this is a thing that is not understandable for Consoles gamers! They always says,"why they don't make the game full HD on my uberPs3?" Because your Ps3 is not so UBER!!

    720p@30fps For a consoles is very very good for the amout of details you see.

    If you want to play full HD or more,buy a PC!

    PS:Full-HD is 1080p = 1920x1080 resolution.10 years ago,on PC,we could already play a this resolution with a good PC.

    I did and there dont seem to be any decent games any more I used to buy loads but everything I buy is for 360/PS3, I just dont see gaming as a matter of graphics options & resolutions....

    Neither I^^ Its just a response for the first question of this topic^^

    I think that playing at 720p on an Home Console is more than enought for the eyes,even more on a good TV!

    Since nearly all xbox 360 games are on pc (expect live arcade),i'd prefere playing those game with a better quality/community/Fps than on my Xbox 360.

    I think the Ps3 is the console that have the more games that don't come to xbox or pc (MGS4,Killzone2?,God of war 3,GT 5....)

    But on a PC screen,you can't even compare the quality of an upscaled 640p/720p to 1680x1050 (with 2xAA?) and an Native 1680x1050 resolution with 8xAA.

    I played the first Mafia on PC,i think the second one will be good on all three platforms not like the first^^ So i choose PC only because i have the PC to handle it good

    so do I but after trying the last few multi platform games I still find myself going back to the console, Batman AA looked great on my PC, better than the 360 version but I found the controls needed more fingers than I've got and just really clumsy, maybe I've been playing with a pad too long...

    But you can use the xbox 360 controller on the PC^^

    I used to be an HardCore PC gamer but since i bought an Xbox 360,i must admit that i like console now^^ Maybe because when i was young,the best game i played where on console,because of my brothers

    but if I'm going to do that then I might just as well sit on the comfy sofa & look at a big TV

    PC does look better, but it's not enough of a difference to make me think I should be playing on PC.
