Looking to the promised texture bump, a clear upgrade is in effect which gives us crisper-looking concrete roads, tyre patterns, hubcap designs and building fronts. These end up matching the sharpness of the PC version's higher settings, leaving the PS3 and 360 looking a tad smudged by comparison - especially during the cinematic sequences that roll before each race. However, the bump is only made to specific areas , with lower-priority surfaces like the roads' painted white lining still relying on console-grade textures. In this sense, the Wii U offers something of a middle ground between the PC version at maximum texture quality and that which we've already seen on consoles.

See, I can cherrypick too. ;)

Well fine wiiu wins, its just very hard to see the diifernce in pics, but yea wiiu wins, it  looks better, to bad i can't see it in the videos or pics, but i guess having a bit better framerate gives it the win, i guess the ram advanatge gave it a a slight edge, looking forward to seeing more face of fs where games come out at the same time, that would be more of a fair comparison.

If it was only "marginally" worse looking than ps360, im sure this thread would have been way different. Marginally would have been enough to prove inferiority.

A simultaneous release at this point won't be fair, devs have extensive PS3/360 experience and little or no Wii U experience. Maybe in 3 or 4 years, but by then PS3 and 360 will be discontinued.

Shouldn't Wii U be compared to nextbox, not 360? I assume that nextbox will be kicking wii u's ass when it comes to graphics.

you want me to be honest, it shouldn't be compared to those consoles, they are clearly are a generation ahead interms of power.

But they will be competing for the same market, right?

yes and no, the wii found a whole new audience and nintendo needs to focus oin recapturing them, they can not compete with ps3/360 core audience.
