The last trailer was ps3/360 footage. PC (this one specially), XOne and PS4 version will still look awesome.

It's confirmed to be the PS4 version actually

Its really hard to believe. But in reality its truth. Damn. Its all over farcry 3 again. I was hoping to get it in PS4.

I will only attempt to understand the Wii U version's graphical downgrade. And only if Iwata says "Please".

Did Ubi go to the same marketing school as MS?

Looks more like the same school as Capcom (Deep Down).

When has Nintendo ever showed a game and its graphics have degraded by its release?
