All this talk about DVD and PS1/2 upscaling.............

Does this mean it will upscale PS3 games from 720p to 1080i?

I hope since i have an older HDTV which sees only 480p/i and 1080i.

Meh, thats whats people are talking about. Though don't worry much about future ps3 games, since like everything released today has at least 1080i. Vf5 said it only did 720p, but i got it to output 1080i. What ticks me is that internet reports saying the ps3 actually has a hardware scaler, but sony either forgot or was too lazy to activate it.

they probably did it that way stratigically, so people people buy bluray movies. Or they really didnt want to release in in november originally and just did it to make microsoft rush their console (which they did) could be really smart!

Once the ps3's internal is fully unlocked, the ps3 should scale everything just fine. Here's the link about the scaler: http://www.beyond3d.com/articles/ps3scaler/makingmusic476

To summarize what that confusing article is saying, basically the ps3 does have an internal scaler, however it was originally locked to devs. 

So far, Sony has only unlocked the horizontal portion of the scaler, so the only way for a game to upscale to 1080p, for example, would be if the game already had a vertical resolution of 1080, but a lower horizontal resolution.  This is why it is currently up to the devs to design there games to be able to be upscaled (like Sonic).  Currently, devs must use an alternate lower resolution like 1280x1080, or 1440x1080, instead of the natural 1920x1080, so that the ps3 will then upscale the horixontal portion of the game to 1920.  The vertical resolution MUST already be 1080, as that portion cannot be upscaled as of yet, hence the funny resolutions.  If they used a resolution with a lower vertical resolution of, say, 720, the games max resolution would be 1280x720, as it would not be able to upscale the 720 to anything higher (or lower) than it already is.  However, the vertical portion would be scaled automatically to 1280.

Once the scaler is fully unlocked, however, the ps3 should scale any game to 1920x1080, as it will be able to scale both the lower horizontal and vertical resolutions up to 1920 and 1080, respectively.
