. Blade Runner, I Am Legend and many, many more! Xbox 360 doesn’t have true HD
Sony Computer Entertainment World president Phil Harrison in an exclusive interview with Gameindustry.biz said that Xbox 360 is yet have true high definition functionality. People who wish to experience HD on their Xbox 360 have to wait until Sony PS3 launches.
Mr. Harrison describes the lack of HD in Xbox 360 console in the following statement on Gameindustry Biz:
“The true definition of HD is the three elements of the HD value chain - the display, the content and the hardware to play back that content,” he explained, “and PlayStation and Sony is the only organisation that has all three bits of the value chain together.”
“As you well know,” he continued, “the Xbox 360 doesn”t play high definition movies and doesn”t have true HD functionality - PlayStation 3 is the only format that has 1080-progressive, which is the true definition of HD, so it”s really premature to be talking about the HD era”.
The president”s comments in this interview imply that PS3 is the only true supporter of High Definition technology. With features like 1080 progressive resolution, consumers and gamers alike can watch HD movies and experience HD content medias on Sony”s PS3.
“High definition as far as the consumer is concerned means high definition movies, which means Blu-Ray disc, and that is the reason that people will buy high definition displays coupled with a player that is capable of playing movies and games - which is obviously PlayStation 3,” he claimed.
