Also, I think the guy is more excited by the fact he can release ACIII on 3 home platforms finally, nothing he says hints at him thinking it's underpowered. |
Who said this? Or is this something you made up? From what I have seen it will be an average upgrade over 360/PS3.

What do you mean by average? A typical jump? That's usually pretty massive...

No they aren't pretty massive, you only say that because of the jump from PS2 to PS3. That isn't the usual jump in graphics, many also ignore last gen was SD and we made a jump to HD. The WiiU doesn't have that benefit.
|
I don't say it because of the PS3. The SNES was a massive jump from the NES, the N64 and PS1 a massive jump from the SNES, the Dreamcast/PS2/GC/Xbox all a massive jump from the PS1/N64/Saturn.

NES - SNES = 8-bit to 16 bit
SNES - PS1/N64 = 2D (except the polygon ones like Star Fox) to 3D
PS1/N64/Saturn - Dreamcast/PS2/GC/Xbox = this one yes
PS2/GC/Xbox - 360/PS3 = SD to HD
This next gen will stay in HD, no big changes,. That doesn't mean there won't be a "massive" leap, but most of the other gens benefit from changes that were really big at the time, this time everything will remain in HD.
You can argue about 4K TVs but those won't become mainstream in a long time.
