It's a 52 inch screen, and the failure of 720p has nothing to do with the titles; I can't use it even in the menu screen. I'm working right now under the assumption that this TV simply doesn't support progressive scan for anything higher than 480. As far as HDTVs go, it is fairly low-end. I'm not sure my X-Box model even supports DVI or HDMI, and I know my TV doesn't have an HDMI input. Plus, I have the component cables already.
I tested out Assassin's Creed on 1080i and 480p and the 1080 looked much better, interlaced or not, so I'm leaving it there.
