Sony comments on HDTV resolution issues
Recent reports have been circulating suggesting the PS3 in some cases is encountering problems displaying high-definition visuals on HDTV sets that do not support 720p resolutions.
Speaking to gamedaily.biz, Sony acknowledged the issue and commented:

A small number of older High Definition television sets found in the United States only have 1080i inputs for HD signals. Those televisions will currently only play some PS3 titles at 480p resolution. PS3 games render images at either 720p or 1080p for High Definition, and you need 720p input on the TV to play select games that do not support 1080p. This is an issue on the side of the individual television sets, which do not accept 720p input, so when a game outputs an HD signal only at 720p, these select TVs have to display the game at 480p instead.

It was confirmed Sony are indeed working on a fix for the issue, and although no timescale has been revealed the firmware update will be available shortly.
