Sonic transformed does have some ambitious graphics, with more complicated texturing than mario kart 8. It also has more detailed car models. Don't use the wii u for comparison though as that only runs at a low 1024x576 resolution, use the ps3's 1280x720 resolution. I've got both wii u and ps3 versions and both suffer from frame drops. I believe the 360 frame rate is more stable of the three. The game looks utterly fantastic on my projector, a feast for the eyes at 720p on ps3 or 1080p 60fps on pc (my projector is only 720p).

Even on these youtube videos I can see there are parts of mario kart 8 graphics that look more primitive although the overall effect of the graphics is excellent.

Anyway at the moment we are trying to make comparisons when we haven't really seen mario kart properly just videos. Too much hype at the moment.

Mario Kart 8 blows it out of the water.

And according to Digital Foundry's analysis, PS3 runs at the worst framerate of the console versions, and both it and the 360 versions have rampant screen tearing, while MK8, being a first party Nntendo title, is pretty much guaranteed to be 60fps with v-sync.
