A pic can say a thousand words ;D  Notice how the anti-aliasing tries to smoothen out the rectangles?

You have to keep in mind the image is only an example of what anti-aliasing does. Sit a bit further away from your computer screen and you'll notice that it can make a big difference.

I just played Capcom vs Snk 2 agian and i noticed the jaggies espicially on tha windmill stage, the green little hill. But why do they need anti-aliasing? I mean why don't they draw the characters and the backgrounds and all, draw with hand like they do cartoons ? (note my knowlegde of game making is quite limited ... i apologise ... a thousand apologies) That way there will be no jaggies  Howcome other games on PC don't have this egde problem is it because console specs are limited ?

Tv's run at 640 x 480 resolution at 40 or 60 hz refresh rate and pc's can run things well above that crappy resolution.

Saw the pic, and couldn't resist adding my own commentary on video modes.

HDTV runs resolutions that are far higher than the paltry 600 lines a normal television screen can display. The problem is those things cost a shitload of money (5000 bucks for a television set that isn't even that big?) and besides, in most European countries the HDTV standard isn't even supported by television channels. That's going to change soon though. I have noticed that the production of lcd television screen (that can be used for HDTV) has been greatly increased so I'm expecting this to be the next bomb after the dvd player. Oh man, those lovely fighting gals in hi-res...
