No, the Wii is not as powerful as the 360, there focusing on gameplay, The wii’s best looking games will probably look like the 360’s launch titles.

of course it won’t. but, if its in the ball park, which this article suggests, then that would be enough for me. if nintendo can keep near the 360’s graphics, then it will do very well.
oh, and, the wii will surpass the 360’s launch games. that much i’m sure of. games like cod3 are better now becouse 1) the devs haven’t started focusing on graphics for the wii and 2) its comparing a first gen wii game to a second gen 360 game.

And if you had any sense you’d know the 360’s specs curbstomps the wii’s simply becuase it’s far above it, and the PS3’s graphical power is miles above the wii’s. The wii is non-impressive; how’s using a nunchuk controller make a game more fun to play? I’ve played the wii 3 times at Gamestop and once at a friend’s B-day party. It sucks in every aspect.

wow, its like the antithesis of silver.
oh, and, btw, wii games are about as good as 360 launch games as it is. not quite their, but damn close. oh, and i would hope that a $600 system would have better graphics then a $250 system. if thats not the case, then there is seriously something wrong.
the wii remote makes games funner becouse it makes it more realistic. its the same basic concept of graphics, except this is changing in an area that needs change, unlike with graphics. motion sensitivity is the future. i suggest you get used to it. sony is already getting ready to fully copy it. be ready for a remote for the ps4.
i have a wii, and i personally testify that it is engaging, addicting, and fun. a lot of it depends on what attitude you have going in. if your looking for reasons why it is not good, then i can guarantee you will not like it. but, if you go it without knowing what to expect, then the results will be very different.

Agent of Chaos Rep: 52  Joined: 10 Aug 2005 Posts: 39,335 OFFLINE | Well I played Gears of War on the 360 today, cause I bought it, and graphically it wasn’t as good as i thought it would be. I mean the lighting is really good in the game but everything else just seems small advances up. I mean there is added detail on the surroundings yet it just looks added Not actually really there.
But what really took a hit in Gears of War is the character models. I’m sorry but this is fact. Resident Evil 4 character models for the GC own those of Gears of War. Sorry it’s true.

also after playing call of duty 2 and ghost recon on the 360 then going back to my ps2 playing shadow of the colosus, i didnt miss the graphics on the 360 one bit cus they looked almost the same!

But Nintendo just never decided to push it that far. But Nintendo could have easily made a game on the GC that looked as beautiful as Rebirth did.

the rebirth thing outshines in “some areas” not all like the lighting to create a 3d look such as walls, faces(gears of war)
games like ico outshine with grass and water, the water moved properly and not some crummy particle picture on top of the water.
i would say the jak series looks as good as the rebirth thing, cus that has realistic looking water in some places, has lots of polygons, and yeah i cant be bothered talking any mroe so im gona shut up

Agent of Chaos Rep: 52  Joined: 10 Aug 2005 Posts: 39,335 OFFLINE | Yea I’m not meaning to be rude but no it doesn’t. This is using 100% of the GC’s power which nothing on the GC even used 75%. The PS2 was not as powerful as the GC and I don’t think anything even came close to this Rebirth. NOt being fanboyistic or anything but take my word on that nothing last gen and hardly anything this gen came up to this.

Have you noticed that all of the GC games look kiddy, except Metroid Prime and Resident Evil 4. Nintendo acts like it doesn’t burn your eyes to see crappy graphics like in Timesplitters and Geist. But Geist is still fun, though.

UBER 1337 Poster Rep: 14  Joined: 29 May 2006 Posts: 4,195 OFFLINE | The wii graphics are more powerful then the xbox graphics and those on the orignal xbox were the best and the graphics on the wii look great, we have not fully seen what the graphical power on the wii yet but it could be just about as good as the 360’s graphics just without the lighting affects, Take marvel ultimate alliance for example the cutsences look the same for every verson but when you are playing the game it looks the exact same the only difference on the PS3 and Xbox 360 verson is that it is shinner when you are playing and it really does not make much of a difference. Zelda TP had some of the best graphics for any game and it was really just a high end GC game but it was still great looking, games like MP3 looked a lot like the GC prime games but when the more recent demo was shown the graphics were improved a lot more and it was said that it would have a much more finished look at launch by next year. he wii can be capablie of great graphics just without all the HD lighting. Some textures can be put in though.

Guardian of MvC Rep: 81  Joined: 06 Jan 2006 Posts: 44,385 OFFLINE | Apparently, the article is saying that the Wii is capable of being about half as powerful as the 360. And if I remember correctly none of the 360’s games thus far have used more then half of the 360’s power.
So if said article is true, (which it’s possible) the Wii may be able to spew out a game on par graphically with Gears of War. However that doesn’t mean that the Wii is more powerful than the 360, because the 360 should be able to make a game look twice as good as Gears of War. I think the article is possible, and if it is the Nintendo haters will no longer have a reason to complain about the Wii. It’s games will be fun and they’ll look great.
