Modern Warfare 2 Resolution

As you may or may not know, the resolution for MW2 was announced today with the game being displayed at 600p.

My gripe is an obvious one. With as many people who have invested in HD technology already, and more and more following suit everyday, when it comes to video games, where is the value in it? I have my awesome 1080p HDTV yet I have zero games available in that resolution. One of the main reasons for me even buying the TV was this generation of games. The trade-off here is supposedly 60fps, whereas many a game is roughly 30. Does that even matter? Can't there be a better medium here? If and when games are made available in 1080p/i, is the price going to be affected?

Maybe the Call Of Duty series doesn't necessarily warrant a high resolution like that, maybe it does. We are how many years into this generation, and all I am saying is it's about time developers kicked it up a notch.

Wasn't the first MW at 570 or 600 as well? So much for true high def gaming.

you are correct, 600. it doesn't look bad. not by any means. but it could certainly look better.

Oh yeah, the series has always looked gorgeous at their times. Just wish when they say "True High Definition" they actually mean "Yes, you'll be able to use that HDTV of yours to the max!"

I don't really mind. First Person shooters tend to play quite awfully when they are going slower than 50fps, imo.
