SvennoJ said: 6 times is not a lot. 720p30 to 1080p60 requires 4.5 times as many pixels to render. Add 3D and you need 9 times the current power. Most games don't even make 720p30 atm. If true, I guess 1080p60 tv's will still be under utilized next gen, never mind 3D at 1080p60. If you apply Moore's law while looking at a 2013 release date we should get 16 times the power of current gen. Let's hope they at least stick a decent amount of ram in there this time and an ssd drive for caching. |
well supposedly the wiiU can do 1080p but who knows what the fuck fine print comes with that statement. i agree, 6x is underwhelming. i honestly don't think i care if the graphics are more than 6x 'cause lets face it -- the gaming industry cant' support that economically anyways so power or not it won't really be supported. i was however really hoping for a console that was much much more effective at multitasking and that requires a fair amount of processing power too.
