Bayonetta 2 targeting 1080P 60FPS. Wii U hidden power?

Platnium Games Siliconeras Robert Ward claims Bayonetta 2 is attempting to go for full 1080p on the Wii U, with 60 FPS already a goal, and discusses more details about Platinum Games crash and build method of making games. Crash and build refers to Platinum Games iterative process where they build up on an idea until they come up with a good hook for it, and then build up on it again until they can come up with more cool elements, and keep repeating on this again and again until they are satisfied with the results. This is the reason every game they come up with always seems loaded with content, to the point of overkill. Robert notes that the demo he got to try out in PAX Prime is the same one available in E3 a few months ago, so whatever progress is going on in the game now we wont even be aware of. However, he notes that the demo is a visual spectacle, lush with details and glowing with colors and speed. This gives the game a lively look full of energy, not as bright as Wonderful 101, but just as awe-inspiring, if not even more so.

Not really, the game just looks ugly current-gen. no hidden power, or any off that shit.

Nope, will be 720p/60fps at best

Most likely sub-HD

The game's graphics looks even poor for a last game at the last years.

Makes sense.  It looks just how a sequel on current consoles would look, and the improvements seen don't really seem to have to do with being on the Wii U.  So they just chose to run the game in 1080p instead of 720 and really making use of the Wii U's extra power for detail.

There are more things going on in Bayonetta than on Killer Instinct.

I think this game would run on 800p, 30 FPS on the Xbox ONE.

I had a feeling the Xbox ONE architecture was too complicated that its real-world performance would suffer. Killer Instinct - 720p Bayonetta 2 - 1080p, 60 FPS You decide.Sonysexual1

No hidden power since it looks like a PS3/360 game.

However at least if it is actually 1080p/60fps it would be achieving a performance level that the PS3/360 absolutely could not pull off for this type of game. I do sort of doubt they will actually get 1080p/60fps though. Most likely either 720p/60fps or 1080p/30fps. 

get off i man... what hidden power you think they snuck a blast processor in there or sumething?

wiiU got that hidden edram..or is it esram...i forget :P

Kinda like Drive Club is "targeting" 1080p and 60fps. Target missed. 50% more power huh?

Consoles are gonna be pretty much the same graphically and only cows don't know that.

Same graphics on 16-times the memory and much more modern GPU and CPU architectures?

Hmm....

Im guessing "dulled backgrounds", in close camera to the action, and not a lot of finite detail in settings will be the reason why it runs so well. If they actually pull it off. The wiiu has no hidden power, no magic tricks, its an underpowered pile of garbage.

Wind Waker HD, Mario Kart 8, Smash Bros. and Bayonetta are all targetting 1080p and 60 FPS.

The wii eww is too weak to run last gen graphics in 1080pTheKingIAm

wii u can run current gen caliber games at 60fps. congrats?NFJSupreme

not hidden, people are just jumping to conclusions about the wii u because of launch games.BrunoBRS

Yup. There never should have been any doubt about the console's power. Granted we didn't get a truly gorgeous game until Pikmin 3 a month ago (I'd say the best looking game all year hands down),but I've always known the system could handle stuff like this. And we'll be seeing more and more of it.

And to the TC's point, yes Nintendo should buy Platinum.

You're a moron if you think Drive Club wouldn't reach 60 FPS if it was doing everything Forza 5 was doing.

Forza 5 is a last-gen game running at 1080p. The Xbox ONE is too weak to handle dynamic lighting, dynamic environments, dynamic weather effects, realistic physics and vehicle damage and the many other dynamic effects as well as realistic-looking environments (Don't kid yourself. Forza 5 looks like a Saturday morning cartoon) that the crippled Xbox ONE had to give up to get to 60 FPS.

They're not going to make the necessary sacrifices...

What hidden power? The game has exact same graphics as Bayo 1 released years ago. WiiEww hidden power :lol:silversix_

stay mad.

Artistic style does not mean technical prowess. SMG looks better than Halo 4. Doesn't mean it requires better hardware to run it.

[QUOTE="FoxbatAlpha"] Ha! You are a moron to believe this target crap is just more Sony lies. If drive club hits 60fps it will look like crap. There are already reports coming out that it does look like garbage. Take your pic.FoxbatAlpha

Forza 5 can be run on the Wii U.

lol..no hidden power..just how efficient they can make use of Wii U system. Would be great if they can pull it off. :)

no they're not....360 would have cost 599 us dollars to have what wiiu has...and ps3 would have been 1000$ lol
