Mario Kart 8 pushes Wii U to the limit?

LBP Karting on PS3 falls far short of Mario Kart 8; it runs at 30fps with drops below, and has weak lighting.

And GT5 and GT6 still contain warmed up PS2 car models, have some pretty ugly assets here and there, and can't maintain 60fps or v-sync.

It's not really fair to judge GT5/6 by their standard models ^^; I've never understood why they still use the standard models (other than to have amusingly large numbers of cars), but it's not like they don't have hundreds of premium cars too :p

It will be interesting to read DF's analysis of MK8. If they confirm it's 720p/60fps i'm going to be incredibly underwhelmed, but if it's 1080p/60fps then i can't complain (except about the AA. Fuck everything about that turd of a method ¬_¬).

They do indeed have some very good looking premium cars, I was simply pointing out that GT5/6 can also be held up to scrutiny in the graphics department; I don't agree that they slam dunk MK8.
