Who cares? Graphics don't make the game, your friend is going to miss out on many good games if all he cares about are graphics.

It doesn't touch Prince of Persia.

Indeed.  If you read the link for that page:

See the part where it says "fake"?  Let's face it, the Wii has little chance of competing with the PS360 in raw graphical capability.  Their appeal obviously comes from aspects other than graphics.

Well I wasn't slurring on the graphical impressiveness, to be honest there are bits in MP3 which are as impressive as that second shot, hell I have seen better in Rogue Squadron for the GameCube..... I was just saying that it isn't actually a scene in MP3.

WHy is this comparision still going on? The answer is obvious, of course MP3 (as great of a as it is) will not compare to many PS360 games, let alone things likle Gears 2. MP3, however, is a great game, and i love it to hell and back (not btter than MP1 though). IF your friend cant play last gens games, theres somthing wrong with him, and not the game.

This question is just plain stupid, Of course in terms of graphics the PS3/Xbox look better than MP3 graphics. But not by alot.

What MP3 lacks in graphics it makes up for in Art style, It's just jaw dropping.

Funny, because thats the game he was mostly comparing it to.

Yeah mp3 graphics cant match ps360 graphics at all.

i can still play old nes, snes, n64, and gamecube games without my eyes bleeding, so i don't have a clue in hell whats your friends problem is.

If someone is that much of a graphics whore to be unable to play games that don't "look" as good as courrent ones, I feel very sorry for them. Best games ever made are in past generations. Gaming market may be growing in size, but in quality...
