Question

Why do games on xbox 360 support 1080p but the Ps3 version only supports 720p

Answer 1

I don't know what you're talking about but PS3 games can support 1080p as well as 360.

Answer 2

The reason for that is because Xbox 360 has a piece of hardware that upscales to 1080p so that is why you will always see 1080p on every xbox 360 games... The PS3 does not have anything to upscale to 1080p however, it is up to the developers to put a software upscale in the game- for an example: Call of Duty 4...

The most likely reason why Sony didn't put in hardware upscale for PS3 is because it is capable to display games in 1080p native but that is all up to the developers. 360 cannot display 1080p native because it does not have enough power to do so...

one last thing, i would rather play in 720p for almost all games unless 1080p is the native resolution. if you play the games in their native resolution(usually 720p) the graphics will be better looking.
