Im getting it, just to support devs that put effort on my console

Day 1 for me. Sonic can only hold me over for so long in the racing genre.

The game is said to have a retail price of 70 euros... pfff.

 

OT: NFS Most Wanted or Hot Pursuit?

The latest rumors are saying WiiU is about 750% more powerful than PS360, that it may even top (slightly) the PS4. This game should be the first evidence of that.

Just quoting the developer ;)

EDIT: I'm not trying to start another pissing contest on WiiU's power, just pointing out a dev who seems to like the hardware and may actually be working hard to get the most out of it. That's a good thing IMO.

Just wanted you to be aware of the pain and suffering you just caused...

lol 2:30 - 2:35 car just spontaneously disappears.

EDIT: They do it again later on "CC has turned traffic off" - doing it to avoid crashes.

will wait for the DF faceoff if it can maintain the same framerate as 360/ps3, many developers have said wii u will have the best looking version but they never delivered.

True but the difference is we're actually seeing the game look better just in this video.  With those other games, none of the Wii U videos (if they even released any) showed any difference.  This one certainly does.  And the frame rate look just fine too.

At the end of there is not one full retail game that has prooven that the WiiU is more powerfull than some 8 year old consoles. I hope NFS prooves me wrong

The difference is 7 years, not .   Nov 2005 - Nov 2012.



The rEVOLution is not being televised

Good to see Criterion is taking the time to make a good port...

However the game is destined to fail because it's been available for a year on other platforms, and that will become a justification to not do other Wii U projects...

Since when is 3 months equal to a year?

The game so far looks great and I'm glad to see developers actually try on a Wii U port. Whenever I can afford to buy a Wii U I will be picking this up as well.
