Best Answer

you need a HDMI cable and 1080P media like a Blue ray disc and a HDTV with 10080P capabilities before you will receive full 1080P. For example most HD TV programing is only 720P and will not be in full 1080P on a 1080P HDTV and a TV show in 480i standard will be in 480i on a 1080P HDTV

Yes the PS3 supports 1080P when it is connected to a 1080P HDTV with the correct connection cables. The blu-ray disc plays movies at 1080P when played on the PS3 to my HDTV.

Ads describing features for the PS3 contain the following footnote: Video output in HD requires cables and an HD-compatible display, both sold separately.

Copy-protected Blu-ray video discs can only output at 1080p using an HDMI cable connected to a device that is compatible with the HDCP standard. This means in order to set up your PS3 to play Blue Ray Discs you need a HDTV that gets 1080P and is able to be connected to the PS3 with a HDMI cable, or that the HDTV has an HDMI input and you have used it to connect it to the PS3.

How do you get 1080p output on PS3 using a HDMI cable with a game that only supports 720p?

The PS3 will upscale to 1080P if the system is set to upscale. You will not get 1080p you will get 720P upscaled to 1080P. I find that DVDs movies are better on the upscaled format, but they are not of the quality of Blu Ray.


Why do xbox 360 games go up 1080p and ps3 games only go up to 720p?

The Xbox 360 games are actually 720p however they are up-scaled to 1080p on the Xbox thus they are not native 1080p games. The PS3 does run games at a native 1080p though in some cases that can be to much for the hardware of the PS3 and it can cause lag.
