If nintendo one day puts super graphics in their console, in a moderate price... it would get bashed at because they will say "they focus to much graphics then gameplay"...
THATS how much hate the video game critics and gamers have for nintendo
WHY... idk... ask one of them... maybe they'll be honest. |
Pretty much. This is what they did on the GameCube. While at the same time obsessing over the XBOX's graphics and scoring PS2 games higher on Graphics.
Its funny how when a Sony system does it, stuff like Presentation and art direction makes its way into graphics to increase the score. But when a Nintendo system is involved with anything, everything is cut and dry 'there was bad textures and the graphics were weak compared to the graphics on 'X' game on XBOX/PS2'.
Now that the Wii is involved, its just been accented even worse as they think Nintendo 'sold out' on the Graphics.

That's some imagination you've got there. |
Says the person with an image of Shadow of the Colossus in his Signature....one of the best examples of my statement above (game reviewers obsessing over 'graphics' when they are really obsessing over art direction and presentation).
Its a clear sign of bais when PS2 games can get 9.0 and 9.5 in graphics and GC games, a system which was much better in graphics, gets downscored. A game like Shadow of the Colossus does not have the same graphical level of Resident Evil 0. Yet they have the same score for 'Graphics' on IGN.

And a game like Brawl gets a 9.0 in graphics from IGN while Tekken 6, a much, much better looking game gets a 7.5. That's because Wii graphics are scored by Wii standards, just like PS2 graphics were scored by PS2 standards.
And FYI, art direction and presentation factor into the graphics scores of all games, regardless of console.

Absolutely correct. You're right here. While I do think reviewers tend to be biased against the Wii in some cases, I rarely think they are when it comes to graphics. When graphics actually stand out on Wii (Brawl, SMG for example), they get high graphics scores. I'm with OkeyDokey here.
