Can't see the graphical difference between the Wii U and PS4 version to be other than resolution. If I was going to buy this game on consoles, it would be the Wii U version for sure, thanks to the Gamepad. However, if the game releases on PC, then there's no question, i'll get the PC version.


is this a joke, your talking about a console that's 10x more powerful, the game is being run on a pc more powerful then ps4, and there were talking about AC3 running on wiiu below 30fps.


After seeing the Most Wanted port, no, i'm not joking. PS4 won't be pushed hardware-wise in the release window, Ubisoft said that themselves, so the Wii U port should be able to run similarly at a lower resolution, that's if the PS4 runs the game at 1080p, of course. If the game runs at 720p on PS4, then i'd expect massive geometry drop on Wii U and lower res textures, but I doubt that this game would run at 720p on the PS4 hardware anyway.

dude the game is being built on a powerful pc and then being downported, look at far cry 3, it runs like crap on ps3/360.  i don't see how most wanted proves anything, it would need to be running at at 1080p or 60 fps to really prove wii u power being 2 x more powerful, better textures just prove more ram.

The game was actually started on and was far into development on the X360/PS3.

So you've already seen Wii U footage. That's really cool, link please.



@Chandler, he's talking about the screen tearing we all saw on the "PS4" version.  I thought It might have been my video stream, but that was the only point I saw tearing, so I guess it was the game.

The idea maybe but if you look at what they are showing and there vision is, it's not ps3/360.

You could have a 8GB ram Voodoo 2 GPU and it wouldn't get even near PS2 quality textures. To have better textures at a similar framerate, you need more GPU power.



Def picking this up on WII U. Yeah it'll be waterdowned, but I don't really care if the draw distance isn't as far or if it doesnt run at 60 FPS. it's not a racing game, and Im glad to play it at 30 FPS if i dont have to play money for a new console. PS4 and PC verisons do look like nice though.



It looks like a neat game with some great ideas. I'm definitely keeping my eye on this one. ^_^

Er... okay then.

WOOT! Ubisoft, between this and the exclusive online Rayman challenges, you are officially forgiven.

Now I just have to decide if I want the gamepad integration or the better graphics of the 720 or PC.


With all of Sony and Microsoft's recent talk about 'second screen' experiences, I'd expect whatever Gamepad functions there are to be available on Vita/smartphones/tablets for the other console versions.



Could I trouble you for some maple syrup to go with the plate of roffles you just served up?

Nice! I want this game. But I will NOT forgive you Ubisoft u.u
