I find this talk of not seeing a difference between 720p and 1080p hilarious.
Its amazing how many seem to miss the point that higher resolution and frame rate are not about SEEING every pixel of detail. On the contrary, the ultimate goal is to make them both high enough so that you CAN'T see the pixels at all, so that the frame rate is so high the picture is perfectly smooth and lifelike.
Its why I just laugh when film purists complain that increasing the frame rate from 24fps gives a "soap opera" effect. What they are actually observing is the frame rate getting more realistic, they actually dislike the smoother motion and ability to more clearly make out the details. It makes me wonder if any of those people are PC gamers.
On the other hand, on consoles I will gladly trade 60fps for better graphics at 30fps or an upgrade to 1080p. I was very impressed with what was done to Need for Speed Most Wanted to make it "feel" fast even though its only 30fps. Although it does depend on the game.
I don't like any film in 50 or 60 fps. I suppose it maybe just looks wierd to me as Im so used to 25 / 30 fps's but seriously when I see any kind of film at high frame rates they always look worse, special effects make up and props are more obviously fake and it has a weird slow and surreal look to it. The human eye does not see in frames per second so it's not really making it more realistic, just different.
But yeh the difference in resolutions helps in games, they don't really need to have more detail because most people are sitting away from the tv anyway but a higher resolution dramatically improves jaggies on edges and things like real time lighting etc.
