Deleted UserIt seems like most "modern" commercial games are made using a resolution of 800x600 (i.e. Syberia, Syberia 2, The Longest Journey), but are higher resolutions becoming more popular?

Whenever a new game comes out that has 800x600 resultion, people complain that it's too low, and the graphics are bad because of it.

Personally, I don't care, I don't see the difference between 800x600 and 1024x768 in games.

I find that the higher resolutions have more detail but most of it has to be left out because of the extra work for developers.  I like to see more detail in a lower res like 800X600 and think it's better for games as the artists can put there all into them with out so much work.

Higher resolutions ARE becoming more popular.  My LCD native resolution (sharpest picture) is 1920 x 1080.  Because this is progressive (equivalent to high definition TV's 1080p) I would hope you all will support it and I'm certain you will be sooner or later.  Note that this resolution is widescreen too--another programming problem to contend with.
