Gran Turismo 5 at 240fps - why?

— crunchgear.com — Because the human eye has an effective “refresh rate” of around 30 frames per second, there is a certain point at which even major increases or decreases in frames per second will have no visible effect. I’d place that number, off ... (more) Gran Turismo 5 at 240fps - why?

But all those big words didn’t stop Sony from showing GT5 at 240fps, though! Using four PS3s working in parallel ...

Homotron.net — ... performance improvement: a wider viewing angle, superior blacks (Hi Taye Diggs!), richer tones, and no blurring of moving image outlines. For this demo, four PS3s were used as one to quadruple the usual framerate of 60fps - and the resulting 240fps of Gran Turismo 5 sweetness must have been phenomenal.
