Why the hell would you "just accept" PS2-level graphics as "the norm" for the Wii? That's beyond stupid seeing as how the thing has roughly four times the graphical and processing power.

The Wii's graphics should never be "less than" God of War or MGS3 or Fable 1 or Halo 2.

Graphically, the Wii should essentially be viewed as a sort of "missing link" between the last gen machines and the HD consoles. Better than the 6th generation, but not to the level of the HD machines. The PS2's graphics technology is nearly a decade old--the Wii's "standard" sure as hell shouldn't be "just accepted" as a decade obsolete when it's capable of quite a bit more.

 

Sonic riders and SEGA Superstar Tennis for the Wii was definitely a PS2 port, and theres nothing wrong with the graphics on that. And yeah, Sonic riders was definitely a PS2 port unless someone corrected me about it.

If theres one example about horrible graphics on the Wii its is Quantum of Solace, most of its stages :(. The ironic part I like it especially the singleplayer, though the multiplayer stages were good.



end of core gaming days prediction:

 

E3 2006-The beginning of the end. Wii introduced

 

E3 2008- Armageddon. Wii motion plus introduced. Wii Music. Reggie says Animal crossing was a core game. Massive disappointment. many Wii core gamers selling their Wii.
