Isn't it funny how Call of Duty is probably the best port for the Wii-U right now?  Color me surprised.

What you have to realize is that this game probably had 6-8 months at some side studio to be ported on several incrementally improved versions of the hardware, so yeah, not being built from the ground up, the game is going to not be what it could be.  With increased sales, and a larger console market, maybe they will dedicate the main team to building the game for all 3 consoles next cycle.  

I saved a screen shot from that video and highlighted several areas of the screen.  It's a bmp image file so it's big but retains all detail completely.

From this, I see a different resolution, higher resolution textures, richer color palette, better lighting...even a car fire that's completely missing from the PS3/X360 version.

Thats a valid point Plezbo and I do agree with you. I guess I was a expecting a true "next gen" feeling when I saw the games running and I was disappointed. My expections too high? maybe. I now have a wait and see attitude toward the Wii U before I decide to purchase one. At this point though, Im glad I didnt preorder.  I got burned on the Wii.

I really liked the Wii, but it was because I was living in a house with 5 other guys my own age in college at the time. It was the party game system, and thats what we used it for. But I can understand the people that were underwhelmed.

I am getting Wii U because I love Nintendo games, but nothing at launch seems to be a MUST BUY for the average consumer. Were I you I would wait to see what E3 holds, by then teams will have over a year to work with the hardware and hopefully have it down pat by then.

This is what I felt as well. Everything just looked that little bit crisper in comparison to the other version.

Having all 4 side-by-side as Pezus suggested would be good though.

I am glad to see the Wii U ports being superior to last gen PS360 versions. I was honestly surprised I saw such a big difference.

Sure it isn't biased, using only the PS3 version with the wrong patch that made everything blurrier.

Very useful thanks!

I see where you're coming from with that comment. The PS3 version definitely looks the worst, but after that there's little in it. I would say the 360 version ever so slightly looks worse than the WiiU and PC versions, if only because those versions have a little bit more going on in them. 

But it's clear they all use the same engine, so they'll all look very similar anyway.

No I take  joy because he is gone.

@ Pezus I actually thought the shadows and colors looked better on the PS3 version. Still always buy it on 360, but.
