Well, guess no other games before the hd systems had good environments that made the game. Good thing to know they came and saved us.

 

No other game before has had the incredible environmental detail that feeds back both into the narrative and immersion like Bioshock does. Half Life may have been a pioneer, but the i9ncredible graphics of Bioshock really took the sense of immersion to the next level. Bioshock is primarily story driven, not gameplay driven and I think a game like that benefits more from visuals than controls/interface.

We have had other fps games before that were good immersive games. Look, I'm not saying the graphics are not impoirtant, but that the wii can handle graphics that can make the game immersive. just because you don't have hd textures does not mean a game is not immersive.

 

 

It may be immersive, however, whatever way you slice it, by porting the game to a less powerful console you are sacrificing one of it's finest qualities. IMO a story driven game does not especially benefit from a unique control scheme, great visuals and art diretion however do benefit it.

rapture is an incredibly detailed world, many of the subtle details, like the grime, masks, little tears and bruises in clothing, etc feed into the narrative. Many of those details would be lost on the wii.
