I was having the same problem with resolution being limited to 1600x1200. Turns out that in the VM settings I had "Specify monitor settings" with one monitor specified and "Maximum Resolution of any one monitor" set to 1600x1200, which is the largest resolution listed. Once I set it to "Use host setting for monitors" (can only be changed with VM powered off) and restarted with the VM maximized it set itself to 1920x1080. I don't think this is an issue with xorg but with VMWare Workstation 8.
