Funny thing is that eye test tells me something else.

Ps3 at top, WiiU at bottom. Bottom looks much better to me.

Probsbly because the picture on top is blurrier... and that's not the resolution in game lol, it's the picture that's blurrier

Well Andre (and anyone else)., that may be the case.

One thing that it is not is a case of a bad screen cap for the PS3 as the GT scroll can easily be read.

The difference I see is about what I would expect if the Wii U is 1.5x to 2"5x times more powerful than current HD consoles. (8 know most of the conversation has center on 1.5x, I inlcuded the range because it is what I have been says for months).

The scroll isn't part of the footage their showing, it's "on top" if you know what I mean. Not sure how to describe it, it's like putting a watermark on something, the quality of the video isn't the same as the watermark. As someone who has played Assassins Creed games on PS3, it looks absolutely nothing like that shot. That shot looks almost SD

Actually, if this is to believed, the WiiU is "off screen" while the PS3 is a "direct feed."  If I understand that correctly, it would seem the WiiU is much better -- unless of course "direct feed" means off the "computer feed" in which case all bets are off.
