But I suppose, a game running at 1920x1080 should still be more sharp, in my mind.
Oh well, I suppose there's no point complaining about it.
Thanks, guys.
sharpness is yet another parameter that is not directly dependent on the resolution, an image will be blurred at high resolution if it is blurred and another image may look sharp in smaller resolution. filters/shaders to improve sharpness (among other post processing effects) do exist for PCSX2, you may want to search for them.
Edit: For LCD monitors the image looks naturally sharper when at it's own native resolution, but that's something that is the monitor's characteristic and affects mostly fullscreen. In the end the output device/driver and the OS desktop resolution will rescale whatever you push on them.
Upscale is not meant to do more than extrapolate points from existent native resolution, in a way it's result is a little blurred than the original (albeit it may help reducing jagged edges for blending adjacent points, an effect that looks a bit like AA despite different in nature).
PS: about complaining, use that energy to go after Sony the native resolution is what it is, the resolution actual PS2 runs (besides, the PC monitor tend to expose a lot of problems the TV masks naturally, examples being the interlacing and pixelation). So, all these nice post processing effects are a plus from the emulator but themselves are "beyond the emulation".
