Pretty stupid. Firstly - its irrelevant (i.e. iPod vrs Xbox - which is more powerful, which is more successful?) thanks to sales. Secondly - I still haven't seen any *hard* specs on what the GPU in the Wii is capable of. ATI spent years designing/working on it, I don't think that would have happened if it didn't actually have some graphical improvements over the GC. The main difference (as reported) is the difference between a fixed vrs programmable pixel shader. Its interesting to see the article say that there isn't any effect you couldn't really do on a Wii. Thirdly - the Wii has more RAM, a faster CPU with faster cache/memory, and a more powerful architecture (its not all about the GPU you know..). And finally - as we all know - performance is much MORE about what a developer wants to put into development, than the specs of a piece of hardware. God of War II looks great - and its just a PS2 title.
