^ Yup. I mean Halo 4 and Last of Us look great, but even with such low quality video, X just seems amazing.


What's scary is that these are just the first gen (the real one no ports) games for the Wii U.  I am so excited for next-gen gaming for ALL next-gen systems (720,PS4 and Wii U).  I am still happy with my 360 though so I probably won't jump on the 720 right away.

That`s true.
This is the first game to actually show what Wii U can really do and it looks great. Of course, with time, like any other console, things will get even better.
And if Xbox 720 and PS4 are even better, the same rules will apply.


Yeah, I agree especially when I am expecting the 720 or PS4 to be more powerful than the Wii U (about 2-2.5x more powerful my expectations) that next gen consoles are gonna be competitive despite the challenges it faces against upstarts like Steambox, Ouya, Shield, and so called Smart Devices in general.



I'm expecting 3-4 times more powerful myself but even then it's still in the same ballpark in the grand scheme of things. There are going to be plenty of Sony and Microsoft fanboys disappointed this gen, a great deal of them are expecting the difference between the Wii U, PS4 and 720 to be the same gulf between the Wii and the HD twins. The most important thing about the Wii U is the GPU and the architecture they've chosen, it's going to be easier to port between all 3 consoles this gen than it currently is to port between the Wii U, PS3 and 360. Sorry, I digressed a little there, on topic: This game is looking fantastic already, although they've probably been working on it for a while considering that they finished Xenoblade Chronicles in 2010 with split teams working on the European and US versions. They would have been one of the first developers to receive devkits so I'd say it's been in development for anywhere between a year and 18 months already so we could be looking at a release date of late 2013 or early 2014. What they managed on the Wii hardware was technically very impressive, can't wait to see how this turns out!


Hmm...maybe but there is so much "leaks" that it's impossible to pinpoint reliable information from sensationalism.  Anyways how much more powerful is this Liverpool GPU compared to the Wii U's modified e6760 anyways? 



The thing is that we know next to nothing about the Wii U GPU. We don't even know it's a modified e6760 unless I've missed something..?

 

All we know is that it has some way to save memory on textures, but we don't even know for certain how they're doing that. It wouldn't surprise me if they also have some way of having 'free' use of AA and depth of field effects, possibly using a similar form of fixed functions that Dolphin/Hollywood use.


i was reading beyond3d yesterday, most seem to think its on par or even weaker, then ps3/360, and they are suppose to be tech experts, they say there is a slim chance where wiiu is more powerful but very unlikely, go read for yourself.

Whats up with that grass?



F0X on 26 January 2013

I've read the technical analysis of X. It was a load of BS, singling out very specific moments of the trailer and using them to make blanket claims about the overall graphical quality of the game, or being dead wrong about the quality of the lighting and particle effects. Or bringing up irrelevant aspects like sprite-based foliage, which in my experience doesn't detract anything and is a rather intelligent idea. And not even going into detail about the areas the game shines the most, such as the draw distance, textures, and character models.

Honestly the main thing I think needs to be worked on is AA. Most everything else is likely either a placeholder that won't be indicative of the final product or is already pretty darn impressive.

I actually think THIS is a better discussion that before; he's raised some concerns and backed it up. But then again, I think FOX pointed out the flaws with this link and the argument within it...
