It has a massive amount of polygons, tessellation, global illumination, dynamic fluids physics and the texture size is brutal compared to anything the PS3 and the 360 have done. Also, as a computer hardware aficionado, I'm starting to think that a R700 GPU is not enough to give the detail and performance seen on that demo. Might as well be a R800 GPU, with OpenGL 4.1. |
Now this is the type of thing I like to hear 
I know some people see it as 'bad' to give a lot of importance to graphics, but I want to be in a captivatingly beautiful Hyrule where the light bounces off the flowers and the grass and my sword reflects the whole world... How is that not a tantalizing prospect?
If Nintendo goes this route (which is obviously possible and perhaps even likely) then they will see me there at launch ready to fully embrace the next gen.
