The De-Evolution of the Generation Begins

[KillerGremlin]

We have a 480p TV at home...it's gorgeous, but not true Hi-Def. In my dorm I have two old-fashioned picture tubes. My laptop can crank out 1920x1200 which is technically Hi-Def but I never use it. Hi-Def TVs have really come down in price though, so I'm sure the next gen of gaming will embrace the Hi-Def. The reason this gen is axing Hi-Def is exactly what gekko said: costs. With Microsoft and Sony taking profit hits on each sold console, why penalize the developers too?
