What does everyone think? I say the Wii shots hold up pretty well, even though the PS3 version is clearly better, it's not as big a difference as I expected.

*ducks*

Remember that the PS3 shots are much bigger too...so the Wii shots wouldn't hold up anywhere near an HD shot...but for the Wii they're fine.

Aaaaaand most people don't have an HDTV.

Are the graphics as good as the 500 FPS and 18000p of Cruis'n?

Aaaand a lot of PS3 owners will play PS3 on HDTVs...so compare the PS3 NFS in HD to the Wii game in SD, and there's your comparison.

Like I said, it looks great for Wii, but the PS3 looks even better at the same size, let alone when you actually open the fullsize image.

Looking at those videos on ign: Either the guy driving is really bad or the controls are way too loose. My guess, a combination of the two. I have Carbon and I found the controls to be pretty good once you set the options to tight, otherwise there was a pretty serious delay in steering.

On topic. It looks great. I have a hard time believing that the first two screens are real time shots on the Wii.

@all - the screens are definitely Wii, and definitely in-game.

My only question is the frame rate - I find EA tend to show off pretty visuals and sacrifice frame rate - which sucks. Racing games in particular need a steady, high (60fps) frame rate. I'll rather play with a better frame rate and crappier gfx thanks.

The frame rate looked pretty decent in the off-screen videos on IGN.

Are those Wii graphics? Wow, those look like Playstation 3 graphics.

Racing games reached their graphical peak last generation. GT3/GT4 looked great - the cars looked awesome.

Apart from having heaps of cars on the track, cranking up the detail in backgrounds, or modeling uber-fine detail (and interiors) - there just isn't much more you can do in a car game.

There is no reason why a well-made racing game for the Wii couldn't look awesome.
