Does Upscaling Matter?

GamesRadar editor Joe McNeilly doesn't see what all the fuss is about

As GamesRadar’s “video guy” I’m constantly babbling in technojargon about codecs and frame sizes and quantizing gamma variances in chrominance channels. I love geeking out on topics like the difference between 680p and 720p. But I really don’t get all the beef about upscaling in recent popular games - it’s a tool developers use to help bring you the goodness you crave. Just think, if games look this great now imagine how slick they’ll be when developers figure out how to use the other 25% of their brains.. I’ve composed this video response to you, the internets, for never being happy with anything ever. Enjoy!
