I am really excited for new ways to play with the Wii U gamepad!

Oh sorry, I'm clueless about techonology xD. Anyway I think the gamepad is cool and could be used for interesting things. Rayman Legends is a good example of a game that uses the gamepad in an awesome way. Also Nintendo Land! I hope we get more of those as the Wii U evolves over the years!

Thanks CGI-Quality!  I think it helps sometimes to know what we are looking for and appreciate what we are getting.

Here is a short video to support an explanation of advanced tessellation coming in next gen consoles.  You can see the rock wall in the older version, but when  you bump it up - every little rock has it's own form, and cast an extra shadow.  Notice the dragon - it looks nice, but when you use the advanced tessellation - boom! extra points, spikes, and textures everywhere.  Every extra texture also cast it's own shadow - it should help stop that 'floating' look some characters have in game (Thinking of Read Dead Redemption.)

Also, a rope might look nice, but when you zoom in – or you tune walks by – it looks like a pipe painted to look like a rope.  With the advanced tessellation it will keep getting sharper looking as you zoom in – like our real eyes do – you will see the folds and the fibers.  So things will not look fakey when you get close to them or just move around.

It is a tremendous amount of extra load on the rendering resources.  Using advanced techniques, they can make it small enough that it can actually run on today's hardware.

Looking forward to the next parts of the series.

GPU particles!

So smexy

I'm expecting to see some pretty damn good exclusives next. Infamous look amazing, I wonder what the next Zelda will look like.

I personally look forward to the Art Style Visual. Little Big Planet and Skyward Sword were some of the pretties games I played and seen this gen.

It did the rounds a few years back, and it is still super impressive. Everything in the demo is made up of particles, there are no polygon based geometry in the intire thing it's amazing. The demo scene is fucking impressive, I love checking the stuff that they make.
