Resident Evil 5 downgrade? (no 56k)... Resident Evil 5 to the Wii!?

Three new images released on Kotaku.com ... This game is looking more and more graphically aligned to Resident Evil 4 on the wii. Even if these shots are considered "too good" for the wii, the difference really couldn't be more than Bully Wii to 360.

I think we have ourselves another Resident Wiivil, gents, what do you think?

Hardly, and when in motion it's doubtful.

I think the one thing you're forgetting is that this game will have hordes of "zombies" or whatever they will be called in the game running, attacking, and trying to take you down at once.

Plus the character models are too detailed already for a Wii game. :P

I would love to see Wii play Re5 at 1 frame a second.

at least it would have great controls though i guess

Umm, I think those screens are of the PS3\360 version....

And in what way were they 'downgraded'?? They look the same as the old screenshots to me... :|

downgrade? is this a joke?..those shots look great :?lawlessx

I guess if I were a Wii only owner I would be desperatly searching for the slightest clue of better third party support too.

Don't count on it, chief. Just about everything we have seen of the game suggests that it won't be going to Wii.

For one thing, co-op (online co-op, yes?) seems to be a big part of the game, and I just don't see that feature working on Wii, at all. Supposing that they did do the core online stuff for Wii, how would it work out? No voicechat, right? Don't you think that would suck all manner of ass?

Also, alot of the visual elements don't seem to fit the Wii all that well; in order to maintain the number of enemies onscreen, and the lighting effects (which are a core part of the gameplay), I imagine the downgrade would be pretty hefty. Hell, in order to maintain the same core gameplay, I would almost imagine that an RE5: Wii version could end up looking worse than RE4: Wii.

I seriously doubt you will see a Wii version. I'd go so far as to call it highly unlikely.

BTW, where is the downgrade upon which you are basing your argument? I really don't see it. In fact, I don't see much of anything in those shots by which to judge the game's general visual quality.

I dont see how it can't other than small details. It really doesn't look nother world ahead of what the GC did for RE.Cedmln

The charactar models and objects in general have way too many polygons and the animations are a core part of the game and would probably not be possible on Wii. And we don't know what's going on behind the scenes of the game with the AI and other core parts of the game. The lighting, which is also a gameplay element is pretty advanced and would definitly not be possible on Wii IMO.

Can't do the character models or textures? May I remind you that RE4 was a gamecube port?justdog11

Yeah, looks terrible.

The evil Ganados. Glad they're all dead. Chilling Memories. I doubt it'll be on the Wii byut, it would be cool!

1 look at RE4 screenshots be it PC, PS2, Wii or GC and you'll see that RE5 is an order of magnitude better looking that RE4. I don't think you've played RE4 to suggest that the difference is minuscule.

Bully is a port of the PS2 version for both Wii and 360.

People said the same thing about RE4, and how it shouldn't be possible to run at 60 fps and have the textures and lighting that it had... ... oops.

No. I just think everyone underestimates the potential of the Wii, just like they did the GC until RE4 came out and blew everyone minds.

I'm not dlusional enough to believe that RE5 is comming to the Wii... though i would buy it after my PS3 version if they released a downgraded port of it later.

Resident Evil 5 is milestones ahead of Resident Evil 4.

Yea, this is what I was thinking. I'd be pleasantly surprised if this is what the Ps3/360 games look like.

Wow the jealousy . Seriously sheep if you wanna play the game get a 360 or ps3.kaangonultas

ps3 or 360 fanboys act more like " mgs4 looks like crap or gears 2 is over-hyped. should the sheep now do they same and say stupid things about re5 just course its not on there system ? :roll:

be happy they want a game and dont bash it !
