Oh God that looks incredible. I can't wait for next gen and its CGI-like graphics! I've been wanting this ever since I first played a videogame.

Console prices will be kept affordable for lower-income people due to the subsidizing of consoles that Microsoft and Sony are sure to do through their online plans. Microsoft is testing it on the 360 and I guarantee you it'll be a main focus of their strategy for the Xbox Durango. Sony would be silly to not follow suit.

While I agree with most of your post, specially the fact that MS and probably Sony will launch their consoles at a loss, there are ways for Nintendo to overcome some of those 70-130€ in hardware. And then there's another thing to consider: resolution. That pics at 5029x2827 looks amazing, there is no denying, but our TVs are only 1920x1080. So yes, maybe the nextbox and PS4 will be able to run the UE4 at 1080 thanks to those +100 $/€ in hardware, but this gen has shown us that games running at 720 can look great, and if WiiU is able to run the UE4 at 720p, most people will find it good enough. And let's not forget that, again according to rumors, Microsoft will bundle Kinect with the new console, and that will cost more than WiiU's controller. Mind you, I'm 100% positive that Nintendo's console will be the weakest of all three, but I'm not so sure about it not being able to run this engine. |
perhaps. we'll find out soon enough. right now all we have is rumor and specualtion to go on. E3 should at least clarify how high speced the wii U is. we'll probably have to wait quite a while to get anything definate on the next MSony hardware.
E3 will have so much information I am scared I will suffer from rampancy o_o!
I shudder to think of next-gen development cycles and costs... (-.-')

Making a powerful console doesn't really mean instant big losses. Also, if the developer is too silly and thinks that they HAVE TO use all the power available to them and spend big, then they're idiots.

Generally 3rd parties seem to have 2 modes of thinking: full-scale budget title (read: Shovelware) or balls-to-the-wall resource hog. There seems to be very little middle ground, and no sense that a title made for less can also be a big seller (having quickly forgotten the Wii epoch by and large)

Yea. A lot of 3rd parties this gen make me facepalm when I think about their performance.

people who aren't impressed have to see it in action. samaritan video was awesome and much more impressive as the pics were in my opinion. as better the graphics get as more important it is to see it in action to see all those particles and so on flying over the screen
