Not to butt in, but why not do what I do when I want to buy something off EBay; give someone with an account my cash, and let them purchase it online?

Although giving those screens a second look, I'm not completely sure Naznatips' victory is completely in the clear. Excluding the resolution, and accounting for the fact that Wii screenshots always look worse than HD consoles' (for technical reasons I won't pretend to understand), the quality of the two may be just about on par.

But of course the arbitrator here is Twesterm, not me, so it seems His Honor needs to render a verdict. If it's any consolation Twesterm, you can take after the practice of real judges, and let your "clerks" decide the case for you, then take all the public credit and blame.

honestly, the screens are way closer than I would expect. And considering how moronic the bet was to begin with, I feel that the boldness (retardedness) required to actually bet that a Wii game would look better than a 360 game, and how close the screens actually ended up, should cause this situation to result in a tie.


If it means anything, this may be the closest a Wii game has come to reproducing the look of its PS3/360 counterpart.

Just because I like the drama, I resized all four images to 320x180:

The difference isn't as striking when the images are all the same size.

this is either cultural ignorance or comedic genious

@Naz: When you mentioned that buying from the internet, if you are going to buy something internationally, you're going to need Visa or Mastercard, when the domestic sellers usually have contracts with your bank, so that you can pay via your webbank.

So, that would leave you 2 options; either send money by post (not recommended, Rol would send you 500 1 cent coins) or just a regular transaction via bank.

Besides, your judge haven't yet declared the winner, so the bet haven't yet ended.

Austria did use 1 and 2 cent coins?

just have him change his avatar to something he doesnt like for two weeks. Like a R&C avatar! (or does he like R&C?)

The game looks great.

I'm not 100% sure it is fair to judge pics from what is a early build of the Wii game to pictures that were put forth in a press release (that could, very easily, have been cleaned up and used more as a target). Personally I would wait until both games are nearer their final build and then take a comparison.

Although that could just be the sleepiness talking...
