But Harrison didn't stop there. He made the dubious claim that "1080-progressive... is the true definition of HD," and this, coupled with the lack of an HD optical format, means that Microsoft "doesn't have true HD functionality." The Xbox 360 has a maximum output resolution of 1080i. As a result, Harrison says that "the HD era really only starts when we are on the market."

Hey Tyler, you going to the midnight launch soon or can play COD4 for a bit?

You need to get on AOL or something sometime. I'm watching the last Arrested Development episodes right now. 2 hours until midnight shenanigans.

Confirmed by Gamespot:

The PS3 version can only be played after a mandatory install that takes around 10 minutes, and its load times are , a little shorter and less frequent as a result.

Assuming that the game runs at 30fps, 360 gets 3,456,000 more pixels per second
That's 207,360,000 a minute
Or 12,441,600,000 an hour

And if the average game takes 30 hours then that's 373,248,000,000 pixels you're missing out on

But then again less popup, bububububu
