Subject: Why no retina display graphics?

What up Bungie? I'm really loving Crimson now that it's on the iPhone but it just bugs me that everything is all pixelated and not sharp looking. The iPhone 4 has been out for 1.5 years now with the retina display. As well as an iPod Touch and now the 4S. Why no love?

I agree, the graphics don't seem to be up to par with the graphics on the iPad. It seems to look as if it's been downed res'd. Maybe there will be a patch in the future.

They aren't down graded, the game is just rendered at the resolution of the iPhone 3GS and older 480x320 instead of the 960x640 of the iPhone 4/4S. So it looks pixelated and lame on the retina display.

Yeah, that's what I meant by down res'd (down resolution), that they down res'd it to make it work on the iPhones.

And what I meant by patch is maybe they'll patch it to support the retina display.
