All I know is when the Wii U is finally released... if you thought all those GameTrailers and Lens of Truth graphic comparison videos and articles were bad, the Wii U is gonna take them to a whole 'nother level.


Oh God, spare me. They might make sense the few times that one version of the game is substantially worse, but when they start noting that the wheelbarrows full of dirt are more detailed in the 360 version or the washed out sepia is more vibrant on the PS3... just STFU and play the damn game.

Not really that big a deal to be honest.

These are games for PS360 that will be making their way to WiiU. They will also most likely be of the same or possibly slightly enhanced quality visually. I wouldn't expect any significant jumps for the ports though because that was never really the case this gen with PS360 multiplats.

What you saw is pretty much exactly what you're going to get, only with the beauty of being able to take the experience away from the living room and into your bedroom, finally shutting the lady of the house up since she can watch Grey's Anatomy on the big TV.



iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.

Currently playing:

Final Fantasy VI (iOS), Final Fantasy: Record Keeper (iOS) & Dragon Quest V (iOS)     

    

Got a retro room? Post it here!

well, it's not as bad as having actors pretending to play a game.

Definitely this. And I also never took these to be actual WiiU footage, just displays of the sort of games to come. What I find much (much, much ) more hilarious is this, taken from neogaf:

From the livestream thread.

The reaction to the very same vids. Did I say ABSOLUTELY  hilarious?

The standard response to any showing of the 360/PS3 videos Nintendo was showing would be to label it as worse then that of the 360/PS3. Most of the posters were watching from live streams where the video quality was not high. The third party games were also worse looking then those of first party Sony devs or high quality 360 games.

The real surprise would be the nintendo fans which labeled the games as 2-4 times the quality of 360/PS3 games...

If I were them I would have showed the PC versions of the games at least.

Wow missed those comments. Where did Nintendo fans say the 3rd party games looked better? The only comments I have seen are about the nature demo and Zelda as well as the demo shown behind closed doors.

Why didn't they show the 1080p+ PC versions like most publishers do to trick 'HD' gamers into thinking they'll be playing high definition?

I don't wanna see 600p games.

So is this equal to the whole Killzone 2 thing?

This is worse than showing fake footage of announced games as real? Worse than showing footage of games that don't even exist?

Selective memories?

Did Sony do something like this?  I'm kinda lost...
