I voted for "left is wii", based on the opening screen having no fading on distant rocks.

However, in game, left has more vibrant colors. I always expect 360 to have the most vibrant colors because they are obsessed with color.

Comparing a Wii version of the game in a form that no one will ever play it in v. the actual 360 version seems kinda pointless :S

This lol

I don't understand the comparaison.

I don't understand the comparaison.

Some of the reasons for this comparison:

1. The game looks pretty much the same on both consoles. Wii holds the resolution back obviously but otherwise almost nothing is different. This is a fairly pretty game so the fact they were able to develop it for the Wii without compromises leads me to say...Bravo Sega!

2. Once Nintendo has a console that is able to output HD, this is somewhat proof that the back cataloge of games they have will look great in HD.

3. I thought i would be a cool comparison...in a souped up tourbocharged do it yourself ford mustang vs ferrari kind of way

I personally think Wii can do great graphics and I like them but the one thing that I dislike is the low resolution. And that is even worse on a HDTV.

So if you take that away, then yes, they're the same. But you know..

His point is some games on the Wii can look amazing if they were in HD.

Rockstar: Announce Bully 2 already and make gamers proud!

Kojima: Come out with Project S already!

I figured they would look the same. But I was hoping to see some screen grabs. Not blurry pictures of monitors.

Sorry to dissapoint... I for one think that screen grabs are pretty impersonal and real life scenario comparison of side to side graphics like this is slightly more interesting. However I hate when people walk away dissapointed from my threads so I made some Wii version screengrabs...I figure thats the one everyone wants to see.
