People who believe just because SM3DW is in 1080p that the WiiU is powerful enough for more hardware hungry games like Bayonetta and X.
Donkey Kong running 720p is not really encouraging for those titles.

Super Mario 3D world is 720p too :)
and it looks fantastic !

Then I got lied to in that other thread.
And I hate this "But it looks amazing". No it does not. Amazing is pretty much the highest rating one could give but it definitely would look "amazinger" on more powerful hardware. So it just looks "ok" in comparison to what it could look like. As I said before, I cand't stand if games are held back by poor hardware. I'm used to PC level graphics which means 1080p and 60 frames. So NO, 720p does not look amazing. It looks jagged and washed out out with those fist sized pixels. Especially on a bigger screen.

You will hear people say this game looks amazing, and you will agree to disagree. Why? Because you can't argue against another person's art style preferences, even if the game is only running at 720p@60fps.

This is not about opinion. A game on a higher resolution looks better, period. A thing can't be amazing if there is a trivial way to make it even better. We are pretty much forced to this because Nintendo decided for us what looks good enough. This is a hardware limitation that could've been avoided but someone who is not the consumer decided giant pixels are good enough for us peasants. That is what angers me and even more so when someone defends it.
And before someone accuses me of just bashing Nintendo, I'm pretty pissed at Sony too for skimping out on a system that should've easily managed 1080p/60fps from the get go.
|
So nothing can look amazing unless it's running on a high-end PC? Great, finally someone that understands.
|
That's completely out of context. Something that looks amazing shouldn't have numerous examples of things that look better. So I'm proposing that people can still call something to look amazing on the WiiU but have to add "for the hardware it runs on" or "but it would look amazinger on a more potent platform".
Actually that should count for all platforms.
|
So, ALL games should be PC exclusives then?
|
I don't even know how you could interpret what I just said in that way.
I'm just saying that consoles should at least try to match the power of a pc more closely and that people should be more objective when it comes to simple stuff like pixel count. They shouldn't pretend that games are "amazing enough" if they clearly haven't reached their full potential and don't need more power or even that there wouldn't be a difference.
