Six years ago people used to say on this very website that the Wii won't be able to handle the progress in AI and scope that will be enabled by the PS3's hardware. Now, due to the benefit of hindsight, we know that AI barely advanced in the last years and most games got actually more linear, with the hardware power only being used to suggest that there are large areas beyond the linear paths. All the processing power was mainly used for prettier pictures and it shouldn't be expected that this will change in the eighth generation. There might be a few exceptions, but they will be just that.
Now this doesn't mean that the Wii U will get the same content, but it would be possible, if developers and publishers want to do it. |
The transition from SD to HD was hard on every developer. Some devs even struggle to create better graphics, so how can they create better AI and better physics? It really just depends on the type of game. Super Mario games don't need better graphics, AI or physics to be fun right? The same can be said for Call of Duty.
So it doesn't really matter whether or not AI improves significantly. As a Nintendo gamer, you of all people should know that.
The main reason why the PS3 and its CELL processor didnt advance AI to jizz-levels is because most games went multi-platfrom. PS3 no longer had the market to itself and it devs had to make sure to build games that could easily be ported across different platforms. This won't be a problem with the 8th gen of consoles. PS4 doesn't need to dominate the market since its specs are so similar to the next Xbox and typical PCs.

You'll believe anything, there's literally no evidence to support this except 5-7 year old marketing bullshit. You're better than that!
It's been accepted for a while now that the CELL can't brush your teeth, cook a sunday dinner, or clean the windows.

I don't see what any of those tasks has to do with gaming but I agree with that assessment I suppose. Then again I've never tried brushing my teeth with my PS3, and it is Sunday now and getting around dinner time.
