question about ps3/tv hardware 720 vs 1080 - please help

I'm strongly considereing buying a ps3, but I haven't really followed the news about ps3 since before it was launched. I remember there was a lot of talk about the ps3 not working with certain tvs b/c it couldn't downgrade 1080 games to 720 on certain tv sets or something similar. I don't recall the details.

anyway, my question is, are those initial hardware concerns fixed and should i have any problem playing any game on any tv i hook a ps3 up to? While I don't have one yet, i will probably get a 1080p in the future, but don't know when. Please help

so there is still a chance that if i have a 1080i tv that it may not be able to play 720p games? Is there a solution to this?babern38

It depends because most 1080i also support 480i, 480p, and 720p. My 1080i TV supports all of these resolutions.

so there is still a chance that if i have a 1080i tv that it may not be able to play 720p games? Is there a solution to this?babern38

no u can play them just at 480p
also this was fixed in a patch along time ago
