This thread is about how Wii U is capable of better graphics than both consoles, not which has the best looking games. I am pretty sure that if Microsoft really wanted to push graphics in a game and where willing to use the budget, they could make a 360 game that looked better than Uncharted 3 for example. The same goes for Sony obviously, as the Last of Us seems to take the graphic up a level again. But none of this matters, you don't play console games if you care about graphics... A game that came out for PC 5 years ago (Crysis 1) looks better than anything that can be seen on any console. Even if you have a 5 year old PC (yes it was expensive when it came, and its pretty bad by todays standard, but it would still blow both 360 and PS3 out of the water). If you buy a PC today, for less than $300 (minus the screen) it has better graphics than PS3 and 360 easily. So please stop saying, game X looks better than game Y, since both have crappy graphics when compared to PC, we don't play consoles to have the best graphics, we play, cause of the exclusives and the bigger player base online (also no cheaters). |
$300 ? Show me how.
Newegg:
HDD 320GB $60
Windows $100
Tower $20
RAM 2GB DDR3 $10
Mainboard $40
DVD Drive $15
Power Supply Unit $15
Mouse $5
Keyboard $5
$29.99 left and no screen, no audio, no graphics card and no CPU (and likely no CPU cooler). And given how shitty these cheap parts are (especially the PSU) it won't last you very long.
As for the Crysis comment that is a very very bad comparison. Show me a PC from 2005 that would be able to run this with higher settings than the 360 (so that it's a notable improvement or how you'd call it "blow out of the water"). I'm not saying it's impossible but the costs for that would be insane, much much more expensive than a launch 360
