Lee Harvey Oswald, and you're disproving your own point.

Crysis 2 (and many other games) on PC dwarfs the Wii U graphically. In fact, Crysis 1 does as well. Therefore, the technology exists to dwarf the Wii U in graphics, and has existed since 2007. To suggest that the PS4 and 720 cannot be as powerful as a computer released six years before them is pretty ludicrous.

Wasn't there a big thing about how Oswald was just a decoy or something?

I'm pretty sure he was the one who fired the bullet; the mystery revolves around who gave that order.

Either you are underestimating what Wii U is capable of or overestimating the PS4/720. The technology in Wii U is at the earliest, 2008...

To be clear, there will not be a difference in power like there was between Wii and its contemporaries.

Crysis 2 was playable on the 360 correct? If the Wii U is stronger, how could that not run the same game? We at least know one of their engines work on it ( http://www.joystiq.com/2012/06/20/crytek-ceo-cryengine-3-wii-u-game-coming-from-a-respected-deve/ ) Sure, it may also not be able to run it at max settings, but even then the difference between normal and max is nearly negligible on PC...

I just do not see how PS4/720 can blow Witcher 2 out of the water as it stands right now by the same time next year.

Crysis 2 was playable on 360, yes, but it looked much better on PC. The same is true for Witcher 2.

Thinking how I am going to do any gaming next year at uni. I've promised myself that I will study hard and actually become decent at what I am going to do in the future, regardless of how I feel about it. Of course that requires studying, and I am ever so lazy. But next week, I will do everything right, will start going gym etc. Really need to bring my fucking life together and put it on track! No moar slacking/general laziness.

Disconnect and self destruct, one bullet a time.

I agree. All I'm saying, is PS4/720 may have more in the box, but they will not dwarf, or make such a significant leap, that we will get a repeat of the tragic situation of the Wii/360/PS3 generation.
