Ps3 at top, WiiU at bottom. Bottom looks much better to me.

Mike from Morgantown

not saying that the Wii u version couldn't look better then the PS3 version, but you do realize that these GT logos on the picture means they from a Web video source and therefore irrelevant for comparison purposes?



“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”

THe games that were shown when PS3 and 360 came out looked better than anything that was running on PS2/GC/xbox. COD2 looks better than anything released on those consoles and a few other games as well. There is nothing ive seen from Wii U at E3 that looks better than what is already available on PS360 and this is supposed to be a NEXT gen console. Now if your impressed that Ninty is putting out a console that is able to have games that look as good as consoles that have been on the market for 5-6 years then good on you. Hell Those Wii U games look as good as Uncharted 2 and that was released years ago

Nice job bringing up the "5-6" years thing again. You won't get it and you probably never will. (Not saying your stupid.)

I agree with oniyide, it would be vurtuosly pointless for 360 and ps3 console owners to buy a supposedly next gen console to play the same damn games just with a little sprinkle on the graphics. But if you where strictly a wii owner I guess welcome to the  HD era lol even if its a bit late.

Here's a question for you:

Do you believe everything you read? Do you believe everything you hear? I think you should just wait until an actual source tells us the facts. Then you can post about how the Wii U is not "next-gen." (Even though it already is.)

Nintendo has confirmed the specs, and we've seen some games...

I'm referring to the DF Article as many people seem to think it's the truth. (I don't think you do, though.)

Oh right, the one about Rayman's frame rate? Never read it, heard they made a mistake though

THis is all ive been saying and I dont know what NintendoPie is on about. We are all pooling our info from the show, unless he is suggesting the show wasnt real?? Nothing that Ninty showed, led me or some others ro believe that the games available will look much better than what is already on the HD twins. Contrary to what some of the zeolots were swearing for the past year. Some of us just need to stop moving goal posts around, eat crow and admit they were wrong.

Probsbly because the picture on top is blurrier... and that's not the resolution in game lol, it's the picture that's blurrier

 

Andre from London

Well Andre (and anyone else)., that may be the case.

One thing that it is not is a case of a bad screen cap for the PS3 as the GT scroll can easily be read.

The difference I see is about what I would expect if the Wii U is 1.5x to 2"5x times more powerful than current HD consoles. (8 know most of the conversation has center on 1.5x, I inlcuded the range because it is what I have been says for months).

The scroll isn't part of the footage their showing, it's "on top" if you know what I mean. Not sure how to describe it, it's like putting a watermark on something, the quality of the video isn't the same as the watermark. As someone who has played Assassins Creed games on PS3, it looks absolutely nothing like that shot. That shot looks almost SD

Actually, if this is to believed, the WiiU is "off screen" while the PS3 is a "direct feed."  If I understand that correctly, it would seem the WiiU is much better -- unless of course "direct feed" means off the "computer feed" in which case all bets are off.

I like to jump around, and would lead a fairly serene and aimless existence if it weren't for my friends always getting into trouble. I love to help out, even when it puts me at risk. I seem to make friends with people who just can't stay out of trouble.

If launch WIiU titles look slightly better than last gen PS3 titles, that means last gen WiiU titles will look much better than best looking PS3 games, very simple logic you know...
