Mario Kart 8... really, 360 and PS3 could handle this game.

They could, but there are not many teams that could replicate its art direction, graphics are not always about horsepower.


Of course they aren't, but horsepower is a massive advantage. Decent art style + more power can top good art style + less power. If you match a good art style and power, you are untouchable.

MK8 is a good example. Shaders are nice, art style is good, but the lack of AA at 720p makes the game a jaggies festival. I don't remember seeing a game with such a bad aliasing issue. It's enough to jump in the eyes and really degrade the quality of presentation of a pretty nice art style. Image quality and clarity are needed to present that art. It's like trying to see an art gallery by looking at low res pictures. You get it, they are beautiful, but you really, really isn't doing a favour to the original art concept.

I don't desagree, I was just saying that what he said is not valid, a game like Fable Legends could not be done in the X360, but it's not better looking than Mario 3D World.
