BluRay has nothing to do with upscaling DVDs to 720p or 1080p... Are you using HDMI for both devices? That could make a difference

I may be completely off base here, actually I probably am. But are you guys sure the Blu Ray has nothing to do with upscaling dvd's to look better?

I only ask because I recently bought a new Blue Ray player and my old DvD's look simply amazing on it. On my 360 they look good, but no where near as good as on the Blu Ray player.

Did you recalibrate your TV for each system individually to judge them properly? As in not using the same settings for both systems.

Also I've seen just as much lag on Live as I have on PSN. I own both and play both online. Both systems have their merits and both have their downsides. To try to blanket statement that one is head and shoulders above the other is just ignorant. Neither side "pisses" on the other. Get your head on straight and then try to come back for a more civil conversation about the systems.

Probably has something to do with the upscaling chip in the devices, not Blu-Ray.

Most Blu-Ray players have an upscaling engine that stretches the image and fills in the details on the fly. So it's not the blu-ray drive itself, its the post processing that goes into displaying the image on the screen.

Edit: Gah! Halifax, you type too fast!

The 7800 GT scores about double the amount of 3DMark06 points than the 2400 HD.

Also, the Xbox 360 and PS3 run games at 720P usually. CoD4 runs at 1000x600 or something like that for both consoles, and GT 5 runs at 1080P on the PS3.

Get yer facts straight.
Pls get your facts right. The 360 GPU is based on R500 not R600. The shasers on the 360 GPU 48 are not the same as shaders on Hd2400, they are shaders from X1900 which are more powerful.
