| Qwark said: The Wii U probably couldn't handle Driveclub or Infamous second son on 480p/30fps with the complex lighting, shaders and all types of effects. Graphics are more than only resolution, meanwhile I am still looking for a Wii U game to beat GOW 3 or Uncharted 3, TLOU in therms of graphical power. Perhaps Zelda will, but that's going to take a while. |
I think that was a a fair point up until Xenoblade Chronicles X but that game surely takes the wii u up a notch. I know the Xenoblade world itself doesn't have a huge amount going on and the monster animation can be simplistic rather than realistic but the overall graphics I think are impressive. Of course with no comparable game on 360 or PS3 and the fact the developer seems to have amazing skills at making humble hardware look good (the original xenoblade is hugely impressive on the wii) its hard to know if they couldn't achieve equal results on ps3 or 360 or even surpass them but it certainly is a game that compares to the best of ps3 and 360 and surpasses them in many areas. That said the character models are quite simplistic graphically. Something I've seen done better on ps3 and 360. Definitely the wii u's most impressive open world game.
