As it stands right now, I believe the only PS4 game that isn't 1080p is Battlefield 4, unless I'm mistaken. And a sidescrolling motorcycle game sure as hell should be 1080p.
Trials Fusion runs at 720p on PS4?

Certainly seems to be ruining games for a lot of people. Unfortunately..... I am stoked for this game assuming it's coming for x1

TIL we still have members that don't know the difference between rendering resolution and display mode.
I wish some games could render in 720p though. It would be sweet to have a 60fps Lego game like we did back in the PS2 days.

Battlefield 4 is the only title that renders below 1080p (900p).
I suppose you could also argue semantics over Killzone's MP too.
Everything else is 1080p.

Same day as the PS4/360 versions. I think PC was delayed a week?
360 version of evolution was perfection, PC version was crappy. So there is the potential to be wary about fusion
You just clicked a thread named "Trials Fusion runs at 720p on PS4?" and now you're pissed because people are talking about the resolution of the game? Now that is fucking ridiculous.

I recorded some footage too which I may upload some time later.

Maybe 720p is the minimum requirement?
I don't think there is a PS3 version (which is really weird).
Digital preorder.

I'm going with either this or a misprint. Do not believe it is actually 720p. That would make them look bad, and the game.
Maybe from the 360 version then? I don't know, I never really saw these store descriptions as reliable.

Yes, game play trumps everything. This goes without saying in video games. Key word being game. A game needs to be fun for it to succeed at being a good game.
With the obvious out of the way, why do new consoles even get released if there is nothing else other than fun to be had out of playing games? Clearly if resolution does not mean anything, we could all still own NES's and be done with it, could we not?
And why are there different types of graphics cards for PC's? Surely it would be much easier for all involved if there was only one card released by all of the GPU manufacturers.
Same goes for Televisions. Who needs an HD television if all of this is irrelevant.
I can keep going on and on but I think you get my point. Technology keeps progressing, and as a consumer who has made the decision to spend my hard earned money on said technology, I expect my video game consoles to progress at an equal or near equal pace as all of the other technologies that I own are capable of.
I would be just as disappointed if a video game released these days that only supported 2.1 sound and not 5.1 at the very least (although my receiver and setup is in fact capable of 7.1). There is no difference when it comes to resolution just because a game is still fun.
I actually am on the fence as to which version to get here (X1 or PS4) so if this somehow wound up being true, it could make my decision much easier.

Cancelling pre-order if true, no way I'm buying a 720p next gen game unless it's a very demanding game that sacrificed res over IQ.

Obviously its a misprint, unless Sony is intentionally trolling Microsoft and all there 720p games for an April 1 joke ?
I'm a lot more tired of reading/hearing reactions like that than I am of the actual resolution discussions. There's PLENTY of discussion going on about video games all over the internet, and even on this forum alone, that doesn't have anything to do with resolution. If people want to discuss it, why mock them or tell them they're wasting their time? If you don't care about resolution, I don't know why you don't simply avoid threads talking about it. The argument that fun is all that matters is weird as well, you can have both. Some of us like discussing tech. I like my games to be fun AND to be crisp and beautiful to look at. I really don't see why so many people are annoyed with this discussion. We also spend a lot of time talking about microtransactions, and I don't care about those. I don't spend money on them or talk about them much either, but it doesn't annoy me to death when people talk about them.

I have eyesight problems and jaggies can really hurt readability for me. I've played games on console and couldn't play for more than an hour, and then was able to put MUCH more time into it in the PC versions due to resolution.
One of the reasons this beginning of gen has been exciting for me. I wasn't really expiating developers to invest into 1080p at all.

Why should this simple as fuck looking game not run at my television's native resolution on the brand new console I bought?
That's why people are up in arms about it. Hopefully it's just an error.
Thanks for clearing that up for us Microsoft.

It's also impossible to participate in a thread about a game's resolution without these shit posts coming up nowadays.
I played the first set of levels in the PC beta and didn't notice any problems besides some texture pop-in on initial level load. People who played Evolution (on 360 at least, I didn't play the PC version) know what I'm talking about. Granted, my rig is pretty good (i5 3550K at 4.3 Ghz and 770 GTX w/ 4 GB VRAM).
I don't know why people are surprised at there being no PS3 version. Both Trials HD and Evolution were 360 only (Evolution later ported to PC). I'm speculating here, but they probably didn't have a version of their engine running on the PS3 and considered it a waste of resources this late in its life cycle.

I was too, but then I saw that it's the digital deluxe version with a season pass included. Normal edition should be cheaper.

Visuals are an important part of a visual media. It matters to people with a 1080p screen, yes a 720p game will look fine on a 1080p screen but a 1080p game will look even better.
Also the PS4 has more than enough "grunt" to do this game in 1080p, therefore the developers are lazy.
PS:-
Shouldn't you get banned now since you didn't contribute to the thread and just complained about it?

The PS3 controller really isn't up to it either.
As for for 720gate. These games are deceptively complex, the 360 games ran at 720p 60fps I believe, with a engine geared towards a heavy physics usage. I don't doubt this a communications cock up.
Edit: Some interesting DF articles regarding the first two games.

Isn't the parity clause just about release dates?
Neuromancer

Yep I'm getting this either way, but I'd like it to look the best it can possibly look given the choice.
The parity clause is about release dates as Kinyou pointed out, even then it only applies to self published games. Also there aren't really 'arcade' games any more, just games.

What's going on over at Naughty Dog?
I'm wondering whether it also includes feature parity. It wouldn't surprise me, as a way to stop indies from cutting stuff out of the X1 version to meet the simultaneous launch requirement.
No it isn't...?
I've had texture popping and that's it. Outside of that it ran perfectly fine in the 10 odd levels I tried.

If that were true we'd have heard about it by now from angry devs.
