Well, from what stof says, it doesn't seem like it was High Voltagewho hyped the graphic early.

 You're right, but Kyros's statement was to the Wii fans who made the miriad of threads about this game when it was announced to be all awsome and pretty. 

Don't hype the graphics until the game actually looks good. Thats the moral of the story, take note.

The IGN guys were talking about it in one of their "Nintendo Voice Chat" podcasts. From their discussions with High Voltage, it would seem the dev's themselves think it looks pretty crap right now too. They apologized for it's current state and promised that the game will look a lot better down the road.

Well, his point does have merit, but personally, I don't see it as anything different from someone who hypes a game before it's being released...

Bad screen or not, it looks better than MP3.

No. Apart from the crap shadows, the draw distance is pretty pathetic and artiscally, it looks like balls.

Actually, nothing about this screen looks good in any way whatsoever. Early stages though I guess...

I'm pretty sure the main purpose of these screenshots and their tech demo is to secure a publisher so they can scrape together enough funding to finish their project. Since these guys want to do a graphically top-tier Wii game, they need about $10 million in funding, and I doubt they're able to foot that whole bill themselves.

You are kidding right?  MP3 had graphics far, far superior to the above screenshot. I would advise booting up your copy if you still have it just to compare or at least search the net for MP3 screenshots and videos. This game, which is still in the early stages of development does not in any way compare with the Retro studio's developed Metroid Prime 3, which is one of the best looking Wii game's available.
