Hehe, that will be upsetting many users because they confuse technical aspects with good looking. Mario Kart on WiiU is indeed a very, very good looking game! I am glad they didn't use an Xbox One or PS4 title by default because way better hardware.

But he said best looking console game, which means he took the technical aspects into the consideration as well, otherwise he would have just said best looking game period.

One can gloat about the subjective beauty of MK8's artstyle, but that kind of argument isnt enough to back up his statement of MK8 being the best looking game of 2014. The fact is, when we take technology into consideration (which thr author clearly did), MK8 doesnt even come close to your averige PS4 game, let alone being the best one out there

Big hole in your logic: maybe he thought a non-console game this game was artistically prettier? 

We all know what people mean when they use the words 'best looking' and 'console' in the same sentence, lets not act naive
