I had figured you have only seen the compressed videos and still images....This still makes you ignorant on the topic as you need to see the graphics in motion to understand the difference. If we consider Shadowfall will look much better when released due to further development and it not being a compressed video, go figure how it'll look.

How do you know everything is scaleable though? Define "scaleable". Is reducing the AI from ultra-realistics to run-of-the mill an adequate reduction? What about graphics? How many NPC's can be sacrificed? What about detail like draw distance and physics simulations? If you are wanting to see on the WiiU more or less the same games that will be on PS4, that won't happen; the ports will be like CoD for the wii, worse in every way. 

Saying that graphics can't noticably improve from the PS3 is very, very ignorant. As a PC gamer, I can tell you that graphics can still massively improve, with said improvements being noticable to anyone with a working pair of eyes. The fact you aren't even aware of youtube compression/the difference in quality shows how little you know about the topic at hand. 

Please don't bother replying until you actually see next-gen graphics first hand. Plus who exactly said "OMG Shadowfall doesn't (graphically) look any better"?? 

@bold. I never said that... You're starting to piss me off. What I said was that the PS3 was currently capable of great things itself, what S.T.A.G.E. referred to as CGI-level graphics. I gave him Beyond, TLoU, TLG and screens and videos of these I've seen, and I considered them already very nice.

So you can say whatever you want, I know there is a difference, but I don't think it will be as important as you make it out to be, and I'm pretty sure you're wrong. I don't need to be an expert to figure that what will be done on the PS4 can be downscaled to PS3-like hardware, and that some of the drawing distance will be lost but it will NOT be a game-breaker. Also AI has to do more with the CPU than with the GPU and it was my understanding that the U was capable of advanced processing though less than the PS4 it will not be unable to run the AI from those games, I don't think you are right. The AI can be advanced and require advanced processing, but I think we've passed that point now. Now it's about graphical realism (lighting, particles, effects).

So in the end you can call me ignorant all you like, I have all the info on hand to believe you are wrong, and I am supported ITT by people who have more in depth knowledge than I do, and they agree with me, so with all due respect you can go fly a kite.
