That looks amazing, I can't believe it's running on GC. Are some of the backgrounds pre-rendered, Like around that table with the bottles on it?beaudmanYeah, especially considering that was very old (around 2002 or 2003). I don't think it's pre-rendered just because the camera pans to an extent and when Leon raises his gun it switches to an RE4-like perspective. I could be wrong, parts of it may be pre-rendered.

Yeah, you're right. The ghost fight moves around that table, so it couldn't be pre-rendered.
Agreed! Those graphics and (lighting effects especially) were very impressive and do look better than RE4.
This reaffirms that the Wii has extreme potential and can make games that are fun but also look damn nice.
I could still notice the controls looked somewhat clunky though. I think this version could be improved vastly on the wii if they added better control for Leon. The over the shoulder view from RE4 worked well enough,
They should follow this version up or at least make a new one with the same engine with imroved graphics.
Metroid Prime 2 has better graphics than Resident Evil 4 and was on one disc. That should tell you what the Wii is capable of.ZebethOrZebesThe differences between those two games are debatable. The Prime Series seems to have better looking environments (RE4 has some iffy textures IMO) but Resident Evil has better lighting and character models. I think that we can all agree on the fact that both of those series look amazing though. I am hoping that Metroid Prime 3 will look better than it did at E3.

Metroid Prime 2's character models were incredible. I think you're applying your judgement of Prime 1 to Prime 2, but Prime 2 improved on the former in every way possible, from a visual standpoint. And to say the character models in Metroid Prime 2 were its weakness indicates a lack of experience with the game.

I agree, I didn't think the Prime series was anything special.
Yeah i seen this last year. Someoneposted a thread like this before. But yeah impressive for its age...[QUOTE="ZebethOrZebes"]Metroid Prime 2 has better graphics than Resident Evil 4 and was on one disc.

Resident Evil 4 is a great looking game, but it looks worse in motion than it does in screenshots, whereas Metroid Prime 2 is the opposite. Watch a space pirate get sucked into a black hole created by you or get eviscerated by a miniature star shot from your beam cannon and try to come back to me saying it has crappy graphics.ZebethOrZebesI'll agree with you there. MP2 does look good in motion, but still it has mediocre graphics. RE4 a game that came out on January 11th 2005, looks great still. Sorry but theres just no way to compare those 2 games. Its just a battle that MP2 cant win. RE4 has the best graphics on GC hands down. Maybe MP2 has a good artistic design, but thats it.

The bosses looked better, there was more variety in the enemy and environmentdesign, and there were no invisible walls in Metroid Prime 2, unlike Resident Evil 4, which had a few.

The Baten Kaitos games looked really nice on the cube also.Bryweyh
Much of Baiten Kaitos was Pre-Rendered.
Man that's a crappy MP2 shot you post.
Anyway, the best GC graphics to me are Day of Reckoning 2. Looks amazing.
Metroid Prime 2:
Resident Evil 4:
No...RE4 looks 10x better than MP2

Too many people judge a game's graphics from screenshots. Screenshots tell you so little about how a game actually looks when it's running that it's ridiculous. Metroid Prime 2's graphics are definitely on par with Resident 4, although they have very different art direction from each other. But saying MP2 has bad graphics and showing one crappy screenshot as evidence is pretty lame and makes me wonder if you've actually played the game.
Wow, I want that version XD
Also Star Fox Adventures had some of the most stunning graphics I've ever seen, granted some are a bit dull thanks to being originally made on the N64, and some minor water fraction glitches, but that aside it's beautiful. My point? Yes, the Wii can handle amazing graphics, but it will take more than some lazy PS2-porting devs to accomplish that. :(

I totally agree.
Wii is double that of a GameCube. Double that of RE4, TP, Rouge Leader, Star Fox. C'mon devs, show us that while it's no Gears of War, it can definitely compete with the average 360 game. :(
I think Factor 5 could make one mind-blowing Wii game. Sucks they have no indication of Wii support.

well, i think the wii is closer to the 360 than you think. i have both, and let me tell you that while gears has great graphics, the framerate sucks and the online is extremely laggy. in fact, host advantage is a major advantage. so, i guess that the 360 cant handle running those amazing graphics.

mp has rubbish graphics, they are block colours with a bit of shinyness, jaggies everywhere, boring dull environments....
game with the best wii graphics IMO = http://youtube.com/watch?v=Mph0QnTQLNE
that video doesn't do them justice, they look much better when playing
Really? Ive never played a RE game, but that looked very... dull. He just walked around and examined objects, then occasionally something 'scarry' came and he walked away. Seems like it would have been better to backtrack while shooting. Makes much more sense than running away.that looks so good i want to play it so badly
