And still no 1080p. Maybe it was just unreasonable for me to think that 1080p 30FPS would be a standard this gen, (except for Wii U of course) but whatever. I'd really rather have 1080p than extra effects and whatnot.

While you seem to hint on knowing how it works I'll just elaborate and say it 1080/30fps/60fps is not a fixed target. Ever. The PSX can render a game at 1080p/60fps. If your entire game is only made up of a few oranges though. Like 3 or so. These consoles can run 1080p/60fps games, it sjut sthat the assets used in making games become more and more demanding every passing year. 

I firmly believe that by the next generation of consoles, we may finally reach a point when increase in hardware performance doesn't show doesn't show any difference in software performance. Thats assuming that the PS5 for instance will be at least 10 times more powerful than the PS4 is now. In truth, we will probably get there with as little as a 6x increase in power from the PS4 to the PS4 if you look at what goes into making a game. So having 4k/60fps shouldn't be a problem for next gen.

The Wii U is not that far behind the XOne & PS4. The PS4 is not that far of a jump to the PS3. Where is the link so I could go there and spread a virus?

Lol.



720/30fps? Most of Wii U ganes (exclusive you said) are 720/60fps

Yeah, I know, but I expected a bigger leap in hardware for this generation, that's the thing. I expected a nice leap in resolution regardless of how graphically intense devs want to make their games.

Alright just for fun then, if you look really closely you can see the Wii bar :

 

Kind of painfully shows the diminishing returns you get with increased power though, Wii games are still very enjoyable and it's not like a PS4 game is 200x more immersive.


Is that really where the Wii would be? Wow Wii sucked power wise.

Yeah it was really just an overclocked Gamecube, about 50% faster.

Wow, really good comparison there. Too bad loads of people will argue against it though.

Yeah, people argue that the fossil record is an elaborate hoax by scientists, also.


There is a member here that open a thread to discuss that Evolutionism wasn't a scientific teory while creationism was.

My point exactly.

There have been a few over the years. I can only think of one who still tries though.



I think we should change the name of the thread to Spec-ulation. You're welcome World.
