Forums - Gaming Discussion - Are XBONE graphics closer to Wii U than PS4?

Until the Wii U has a game that looks as good as Ryse then I'm not sure. Most of its games are "cartoon-like" instead of "life-like".


Thats because of Nintendos art style.

Best looking console game is a Xbox One exclusive. That should give you the answer.


You mean the 900p/18~30fps game? Sorry but it's easier to make a linear game look good when you sacrifice the framerate/resolution.


So you agree that its the best looking console game? alright then 

So what? they sacrificed other important things for that.even a PS3 can run a game like that if frammerate and resolution doesn't matter. It's like play a PC game on ultra with poor frammerates,the screenshoot looks good but the performance is just....bad.



No.

Well this thread was pointless.


It's pointless because the first 4 people responding disagree? Give it time.


What exactly is bringing you to this conclusion besides MGS V:GZ being 720p 60fps? Even at those specs I don't see anything close on Wii U. Until I see a full life-like game that looks as good as Ryse, Wii U is gonna be that small gap ahead of last gen.

It's hard to do direct comparisons since many people believe third party Wii U games have very little effort put into them. That leaves us to comparing exclusives. Take X. It looks great and is an open world game just like Ground Zeros. Some Wii U fans believe it'll be in 1080p at 60fps, but let's just assume it's 720p at 30fps. If visuals between the two games are pretty close technically, then 720p 60fps Ground Zeros on XBONE would be significantly closer to Wii U's X than the 1080p 60fps PS4 version of GZ. If the rumors are true that the PS4 version of MGS has a better framerate, than the XBONE port is even closer to X. 720p locked 30fps is close to 720p 60fps with dips in terms of power.


Comparing an exclusive to a cross gen multiplat? Nice.


It's a cross gen multiplat on both XBONE and PS4, so that pretty much factors out actually. If I was just comparing Wii U and XBONE in a vacuum then yeah it'd be an unfair comparison.

It's the best looking console game on screenshots :)

That would be Forza 5's photo mode

Damn, my edit was too slow.

There is nothing that has been made for the Wii since launch that even shows proof that it has any games that are on level with the Xbox One. Sorry, no. The Xbox One is closer to the PS4 in graphics and as usual they are in a league of their own. Of course the PS4 is more powerful though.

Is Ryse literally un-playable? No. You're acting like its a constant 20fps.

A cross gen multiplat being compared with an 8th gen exclusive that probably won't be out until 2015 is in no way a "fair comparison".

Read what I'm saying. I agree it's not fair to compare an exclusive to a multiplat. That's not what I'm doing though. It's ("X" vs XBONE MGS) vs ("X" vs PS4 MGS). The decreased graphics of MGS being multiplat essentially factor out.

I thought this thread was about the gap between X1 + Wii U and X1 + PS4. Not Wii U + PS4 and Wii U + X1.
