Default 720p games on 1080p tv

I recently bought a 1080p hd tv to game on because I though the higher the resolution the better, but now i find all my console games are 720p and look awefull scaled up to 1080p because there are ofter lots of "jaggies". Is there any way to make 720p games look good on 1080p screens,

Thanks,
Jordan

On the same sized screen it would look just as jaggie - regardless of the upscaling. Can your TV be manually overridden to go into 720p mode?

Thats no different than watching HD Broadcast which are all done in 720p. Try watching a HD Broadcast and compare it with a game. if it looks better than there might be some wrong settings in your console.
