wiiu version come in third place cause of the bad frame rate, worse textures and load times.

 

 

 

To the Wii U version's credit there's no mandatory install. However, the upshot of this is that textures stream directly from its optical drive, resulting in more geometry pop-in and blurrier assets across large-scale environments.

 

However, the Wii U's lower frame-rates, patience-testing loading screens and occasional freezing issues can't be ignored either, meaning we'd advise caution before buying this version. It feels rushed to market in these respects, and until a worthy patch arrives, the contest must be narrowed down to PS3 and 360 - a stalemate that itself can only be broken via your preference for either visual fidelity or performance.
