Should it be a surprise the Wii U version is the best.

Well I take LoT anyday over DF so I guess your point is moot because it's really up to the individual now isn't it?

 until a worthy patch arrives, the contest must be narrowed down to PS3 and 360 - a stalemate that itself can only be broken via your preference for either visual fidelity or performance.

 

their summary clearly says until a worthy patch arrives its between 360/ps3, if a worrthy patch arrives they might say its between 360/ps3 and wiiu, get it.

read the full summary... cherry picking will get you no where. See my post above.

I also like how you ignored everything else I said.


But isn't that typical NinjaBlade anyways.  C'mon the guys thinks Red Dead Redemption is superior to Monolith/Nintendo's 'X' that and his sig is enough to show that he is somewhat delusional and reason for his bias toward Nintendo.

its really not, DF is in a diffrent league, they have much better eqiupment just look at the pics from each site, its  night and day,   and there not  just some part time workers like lens of truth, they actually go into detail, unlike lens of truth which didn't even point the 20 pixel bump wiiu had, and didn't even bother  installing on the 360 version, they also state the ps3 version looks the best when its clearly the most blurry of the three.

Actually ... you didn't *fix anything since a group of us tend to refer to LoT as LoZ for their 'prowess'. It's not unlike some people referring to Capcom as Crapcom for instance.

DF is more consistent and thorough, in my view, so that's my reason for the preference. LoZ has some catching up to do still. In this sense I do agree with you (concerning the individual). I'm not going with the one that may support my preferred console and insinuating bias on the other. I'm not suggesting that's what you are doing by the way.

I really should stop wasting my time with DF posts and Ninja blade in general. There's a lot that goes into these things and too many people don't have the capacity to think beyond the now. So that's why all I'm going to say for now is... kthen.



I still don't know why you always waste your time with Ninjablade.

Those guys are thorough and tend to give very detailed reports - I like that. Notwithsatanding the occasional mistake or two, I find their work to be very good. The alternative, in my view, is okay. Personally it doesn't matter which console comes out ahead with respect to performance and visual fidelity. For instance, they clearly stated that the Wii U versions of NFS and the Sonic racing games were superior on the platform, and after seeing them in person along with their PS3/360 counterparts I definitely believe them. Sometimes the PS3 comes ahead, other times it is the 360 and Wii U, but that doesn't matter to me - it's their attention to detail I care for.

It's also the only console version that runs at proper 720p. If I didn't have a PC I'd take the version without screen tearing over the slightly better textures or more consistent framerate. Screen tearing is far worse than fps dips IMO.

 

Edit: CGI-Quality beat me to it :(



They explained why they didn't install the 360 version. It was very clearly stated. I do wish they would have done a comparison of a DL version of splinter cell for the Wii U off the eshop, but nobody is perfect. Either way, if you look through the pictures and watch the videos on DF/eurogamer you will notice that the majority of pictures show better on the Wii U than the PS3 and 360, obviously the PC looks and plays the best. There does seem to be a couple textures are lower on the Wii U in comparison to the 360, most noticibly the ground in one scene than the HDR from the night vision goggles, but than later it's the opposite. Most noticibly is the tearing on the PS3 and 360, that drives me insane in a game. 



Gotta figure out how to set these up lol.
