Saints Row 2 controversy concerns, graphics keeping it off Wii

Everyone should read that.

From what I've been playing, I thought it was a PS2 game and not even a gamecube or xbox game. The graphic is crappy enough to be handle by any last-gen console.

LOL. Never ever.

It's HD and the effects are brilliant. Fire, explosions, pepper spray and water. Everything top notch

And WTF is that SR 2 is "about pushing really good graphics", this is totally bullshit. It is almost the same as last one and not even close to most XBLA games, the dare not compare it with GTA4!

I agree that there aren't much improvements over the last game, but it still beats every XBLA game easily in graphics.

I think most people are forgetting that it's a freakin' huge game which takes advantage of the PS360's power in ways besides graphics. Even if the graphics look like they could have barely been managed on the Wii, there are so many other system resources devoted to things like AI.

 

 Exactly. The Ps3 and X360's hardware makes it better than Wii in far more situations than just graphics.

It doesn't look that bad if you consider that it is a sandbox game. GTAIV looks better due in no small part to a significantly higher budget to make that game.

I wouldn't call that low-poly stretched graphics HD.

 

 I just referred to Saint's Row as "HD versions" meaning the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions. Although wouldn't the game technically be considered an HD game anyway"



I'll come up with something better eventually...

Dead Rising is done on a crappy old Engine, that's why it looks so bad, they don't even try to use Z&W's engine.

Did you just call the Resident Evil 4 engine crappy? Bold move sir. You sure must enjoy alienating yourself from fans of all gaming persuasions.

The main problem is that large open-world sandbox games suck up huge amounts of RAM. The Wii's processors are probably less of a barrier to putting Saints Row on the Wii than its limited RAM supply is.

Well it could be played on the Wii if the graphics were changed so the characters looked like Wii Miis.
