I didn't see anyone complaining about the game looking bad in motion until DF reported the technical bit. Now it's time for everyone to come out of the woodworks to remind us that 720p with no AA looks awful, because that's what they've been trained to believe. I guess some people can't rely on their own senses to determine whether or not something looks good.

go look at the direct feed pics from DF article, it really does look awful, and has always been a huge complaint in the 360/ps3 generation.

Is Mario Kart some kind of visual novel now? We have seen tons of direct feed gameplay, and the consensus all around is that the game looks fantastic. Use your own senses to look at the game. Then apply the technical side. You'll find you are more impressed with the craftsmanship. Imagine looking at two visually identical games: one is 1080p with AA, the other is 480p with none. Which is the more impressive feat?

Here we are faced with a game that many think looks as good as or better than anything on PS3/360, without the need for AA. Why shouldn't I consider that impressive?by

these are direct feed pics from DF. there are no reviews that claim that it looks better, or even techically better then 360/ps3 games, that only people that claimed this were nintendo fans, they also claimed batman, AC4 and COD were looking better on wiiu, infact they swore by it, when DF article came out, it was the opposite.

 

The first part of your comment is true, but PS3 and 360 haven't pulled off native AAA 720p games for 6 years other than indie titles. Games have become increasingly more  complex and filled, meaning your resolution and  textures are suffering. Look at the PS3 version of ACIV and compare that to the Wii U, the PS3 version is ass in comparison. Considering Batman, AC3/4 and CoD were all lazy ports that didnt take advantage of hardware. AC4 had better shadows than the 360 version, but it was hit by the lazy porting and suffered frame rate drops as a direct result (then again, can't expect much when the game was being displayed twice with a map overlaying the Wii U gamepad screen). The console itself is technically better, and performs much more efficently than the PS360. If you want a real comparison, lets see how the 360 version of watch_dogs will fair agains the Wii U version. I don't even believe PS3 or 360 games have had AA for a long time. All the games are jagged as hell. It's pretty damn easy to add "next-gen blur" filter over everything.
