That's PC like graphics right there, and only using 33W on full load.

It isn't.

 A TV needs to be upwards of 50" to tell the diffence with the human eye at distances greater than the minimum recommended viewing distance anyway.

 

It doesn't. I can tell the difference in my 21" monitor easily.

 

If you're sitting right in front of your monitor, of course. He's saying it's very difficult to tell the difference between 720p and 1080p when sitting the recommended distance from a TV, meaning on your couch, and that is a fact.

Thats not a fact, look at these to pics, i clearly see 1080p is clearer. pc version vs wii u version.

Do you not even read the entirity of what is said before you type your replies? What's with that? I said that AT RECOMMENDED VIEWIENG DISTANCE FROM A TV it is difficult to distinguish 720p from 1080p, this is especially true if it's 720P with good antialiasing. that IS a fact based on the limitations of human eyesight at that distance from the screen. You then reply about how you can see the difference 6 inches from your MONITOR. You are the king of apples to oranges comparisons. AGAIN, you're comparing sitting right in front of a PC monitor (10-12 inches away) to 10-12 feet from a 50" TV. Please read the entire post before replying.

i really don't hate the wiiu , i think zelda and mario are some of the greatest franshise in gaming and some of the best games i ever played, i just hate when people say it's more powerful then 360/ps3 when MP games havent provin that, once i see 5 Mp  games looking better and released at the same time, i will admit wii u is more powerful but if that doesn't happen will you guys admit you were wrong. you guys can blame the devs but can't blame the hardware.


This reminds me of when a white guy says the n-word or uses a racist slur, then claims he's not the least bit racist and said it because he has black friends.

what a stupid comparison, the only thing i said bad about wiiu is it will fail in sales and it's graphics are on par with current gen, i gave my reasons why i think  it will fail in sales and guess what it's happening so far, i even predicted 59,000 in the npd thread first page.

I'd show you quotes from developers and industry insiders saying the Wii U is definitely more capable of what the PS3 and 360 can do, but I'm sure it's been done many times already.


and i can show 2-3 quotes where they say on par. 

And I can point out how your quotes come from anonymous sources (in other words, unreliable) while mine come from people not afraid to put their names out there.

no  its from developes, dark siders 2, tecmo and metro last light.


The developers of Darksiders 2 and Ninja Gaiden 3 said the Wii U version of their port won't look better than the PS360 versions; I don't recall ever reading them say it's because the system isn't capable of doing more than the other HD consoles.

By "sloppy" I was referring to the fact that it doesn't seem to leaverage the Wii U's graphical muscle compared to Need for Speed.

One thing we shouldn't forget is that most launch games were probably developed on work-in-progress dev kits, in a really short time and without much man power. Usually there's that one game that really shows the new console is more powerful than current hardware (Mario 64, Rogue Squadron, Soul Calibur, Kameo, etc.) just this time Nintendo decided to go with a non-effort 2D Mario game (which could've looked so much better, really).

Yeah, there hasn't been a single Wii U game so far that's been built from the ground up by a technically proficient team to be graphically intensive.

Once there is, we'll have a better idea of what the system can do.

 

That

 

And regarding the comments from the developer of Metro: Last Light:

"Our look at the Wii U extended to a very early look at some very early kits. We… we did some work on it, but we made a decision fairly early on that we weren’t going to commit further resource to it," Benyon said. "So yeah, we didn’t go too far."

Benyon also addressed the rumor that Metro: Last Light was scuttled for Wii U due to the system's "horrible, slow CPU." He said this was not the case.

"Take any of the comments you’ve seen attributed with a pinch of salt," Benyon said. "It’s certainly not been based on any kind of analysis of final hardware."

-Huw Benyon, former THQ head of global communications and studio representative for 4A Games

Given THQ's financial situation at the time and it's recent closing, I'd say it's safe to assume it may not have had the finances to put out a Wii U version. That sounds more reasonable than the other excuse.

Wii-U version looks wayyyyy better.

...Except it's a fake and those aren't Wii-U screenshots, shame as I just ordered a premium 32GB one for £207.20 delivered :(

Where'd you get that assumption?


I just can't believe it would look better, personal feeling, no evidence at all to support my view. I'll wait and see the actual game because I don't believe the Wii-U is capable of those graphics. Time will tell though.

 

I could very well be completely wrong, not saying I'm right just saying my thoughts are this is faker than a perfectly shaped boobie.

Gotcha.  And no worries, after things like the demo looking better than the actual game with Aliens I could see why.

OMG! We are comparing a 7 year old console to a new, "next-gen" console!



Everyone needs to play Lost Odyssey! Any opposition to this and I will have to just say, "If it's a fight you want, you got it!"

if this game looked worse on the Wii U everyone would be hating on them right now.

It's all marketing. The game is promoted and even subtitled as a Critereon game...

Doesn't matter.  Criterion is owned by EA, meaning Criterion is EA.

Yes and no. Criterion is obviously owned by EA. For this specific franchise, since 2012, Criterion has control over which titles will come out in the future (Source). If EA was managing the franchise they would have outsourced the port and put Criterion to work on the next Burnout. Instead Criterion has decided to port the game themselves with a small team. This is time well invested since they've recently stated they want to release future titles simultaneously with the rest of the platforms.

Considering people think this new, "next-gen" console is worse at graphics than a 360 or PS3, I think it's totally fair to compare them when the screens say otherwise.

The screenshots look comparable to the in-game footage taken during the Eurogamer/Digital Foundry interview. I don't see any reason to think they're faked.
