HoloDust said: Difference between 7970 and 6450 is about 16x. X360 to XBox 1 is some 8x (it's not GF2 GTS btw, it's derived from GF3, and compares to GF3 Ti500/GF4 Ti4200, and Xenos has actually more in common with R600 than X1800).
And, at least to my eyes, Cryisis 3 Low on 6450 does not look anything like Crysis 3 Ultra on 7970. Just as Fallout 3 (since we're speaking of Bethesda here) on Ultra looks completely different than Fallout 3 on Low (which is actually much better example than Crysis, so I'd suggest to everyone who owns the game to try it out).
But yes, XOne to WiiU difference is not that big, 2x most likely, so considering that's the lowest performing console of two next-gen offerings (power wise), it boils down to what that great DICE interview on EG was all about - it is a tech thing, and it is a user base thing. Move one out of the way, and you'll get support.

If you still believe that, mind adressing these facts (unlike your opinions, sigh) raised by Holodust?

HoloDust said: You're just wasting perfectly good bytes on him...he has no comprehension about hardware, and that GFLOPS are not the way to
compare GPUs, so he would not understand that 7770 is some 30% faster than 5770 although they are rated about the same
when it comes to GFLOPS...just as he does not want to accept that you can't get his self-proclaimed 500-600 GFLOPS out of
such a small silicon based on VLIW5 architecture, 550 MHz clock and 40/45nm fab.
His "estimate" that WiiU's GPU is "equal to or above" 5770 just shows how ignorant on this matter he actually is.
