Why do folks continue to insist on saying this, as if the only thing that qualifies a game console as being "next gen" is how much superior the visuals are to previous generations? Newsflash... the Wii U is more powerful than PS360, and is capable of doing things that neither of those consoles can do like displaying a multiplayer shooter in full HD at 60 fps on a TV screen while simultaneously displaying the game on the controller's second screen for player 2. And the visuals, AI, and other features for Wii U games will only improve as developers move their resources from PS360 to creating games and engines from the ground up with all 3 next gen consoles in mind. And if you really think that the jump from current gen to PS4 and 720 is going to be leaps and bounds over current gen consoles right when they launch next year like we saw at the beginning of the HD era this gen, then you are sorely mistaken. If you want a glimpse as to what you can expect from those consoles at launch, just look at games like Star Wars 1313 or Watch Dogs. |
This chart is how most people feel about the difference between generations and what they expect of the next generation:
