Since the PS3 can't handle Skyrim can the Wii U?

i think this is wrong. the ps3 only uses about 50MB for the os. its just that the ram is split between the cpu and gpu kinda like a PC! the 360 use its ram however it wants or however devs find more effecient since u can use the 512 in anyway u want!

I imagine it could.

It might not get DLC but probably yes.

The PS3 version and the Xbox 360 version are the same. If the game gets released on the Wii it will be the same too, except maybe with 1080p.Timstuff

Yep. Exactly the same.

Until your game freezes, corrupting all your saves across 3 characters with 300 hours, framerate drop, cheap feeling, and general clusterf*ck.

[QUOTE="rogelio22"]

[QUOTE="Plagueless"] Of course, the reason the PS3 has problems with Skyrim is the fact that it's 512 MB of Ram is split between the game and the OS, so the game only has 256 MB of Ram to work with. Thats why the 360 version doesn't have problems, it's 512 MB isn't split, and it has an extra 10MB of EDRam on the die to run the OS in the background. Therefor, it is possible for a 360 game to have nearly double the Ram to work with as a PS3 at a given time. Ram is essential to loading large environments, which is why the PS3 version suffers. The Wii U has 2GB of Ram, 4x as much as current consoles and 8x as much as the PS3 has for Skyrim. It will be able to handle Skyrim and then some.delta3074

Better hardware with double the RAM (most important in this case), I would say so. If we believe the spec rumours Wii U could probably run between medium/high on PC, closer to high.SaltyMeatballs

Why do people keep thinking PS3 can't handle Skyrim? It plays perfectly. It was only due to Bethesda being lazy devs, it has nothing to do with the PS3 it'self. Bad ports happen on PC too, is it the PC's fault? No obviously not. Bad devs make Bad Ports.

And the PS3 actually has superior RAM:

"512 MB GDDR3 RAM (shared with GPU) 256 MB XDR RAM 700 MHz speed 3.2 GHz speed 22.4 Gbps bandwidth 25.6 Gbps bandwidth"

"The verdict: Once again, the Xbox's total amount of RAM is slightly misleading, as the system RAM and video RAM are shared. The PS3's XDR RAM is also far more fast and efficient than the Xbox's GDDR3 RAM, running at a speed of 3.2 GHz compared to 700 MHz."

"Final bandwidth numbers prove PS3 is the victor in this category."

"Winner: PlayStation 3"

As far as the Wii U. We will see, Black Ops 2 is going to be on it though and so will AC3.

Everything I said was true, I even posted proof. Perhaps you are the one living in your own mind freind. I doubt you have even played the PS3 version of Skyrim before, that goes for most of the people bashing it. Truth is that it plays exactly the same as the 360 version, after the update anyway.

Check my PS3 gamertag in my sig. 88% of Skyrim Trophies, all guilds completed, finished the main quest, over 100 hours (actually in the several hundreds), level 48....explain how I managed to do all of that if Skyrim is too much for the PS3 to handle?

The Wii U has as much RAM reserved for their OS as the PS3 has for their entire system.hiphops_savior

Yes.

It has more RAM and better GPU.

No need for teh Cell.

Of course I mean the Wii U is next gen so it should be able to handle it.

anyways y bother? by the time a wiiu ver. is out! skyrim will prob be only $10 during a steam sale which could be played at higher graphical seetings than on wiiu with a $500 pc!

$500 PC is still $500 PC.

Stop mixing apples and oranges.

Consoles are not direct competition for the PC.

Because you are making it up. You have buyers remorse and are trying to justify your purchase.

I doubt you have the game for both systems, let alone even own both. The differences are minimal at best (like almost all multiplats). The issues got fixed on PS3 a LONG time ago.

[QUOTE="derptholomew"] they are not the same, I have ran the test on my 55 in led lcd 1080p tv on different hdmi ports and the 360 version looks much better, has better draw distance and has better framerate. why would you say they are the same timstuff?derptholomew

What does Madden or EA have to do with this?

There is nothing wrong with the video, it is in full HD and everything. You are just trying to discredit it because it destroys your argument. And I have played 360 version of Skyrim (I do not own it on 360 however) and I own the PS3 version.

There is no difference between the two versions in graphics or performance (after patch). There was never a problem with Skyrim PS3 graphics, it was only a bug that some users got that slowed their game down, some more than others.

Ironically the 360 version had a graphic bug that happened to some users who played for a long time, or had it installed to their hard drives.

Skyrim 360 Shadow/texture problems? (Game not installed

Some 360 users are also reporting the lag bug as well.

Very bad lag and skipping for Skyrim (XBOX 360) *Please h

But I am sure Bethesda will fix it just like they did the PS3. For some reason it seems like you and the Lems wish the PS3 version was broken, it seems like you take some kind of pride in that.

Pretty sad when you want your fellow gamers to have bad experiences on games they bought just to make you feel less insecure about your system purchase.

The devs never said that. That is just a rumor, I will wait for confirmation from the devs themselves.

Why do you not want the PS3 to get DLC? Why do you wish the PS3 version was broken? Are you that unhappy with your 360 that the only good thing you can say about it is "durr the DLC does not work for PS3 durr"?

Really if it was the other way around I wouldn't be acting like that. I would be wanting Bethesda to fix it for my fellow gamers. Though honestly the DLC DawnGuard is not that great, I played it, it's not bad but not super amazing like the shivering isle's It's also too short, but the Werewolf perks were cool.

[QUOTE="ShadowMoses900"]

[QUOTE="derptholomew"] why are you using a compressed youtube video for comparisons? I use my own t.v. and different hdmi ports and the 360 version looks way better its not minimal, no need to sugar coat it, and also madden 13 looks like ass on the ps3 also compared to the 360 version and that is ea the developer, and there have been 6 maddens released this gen on both systems so by now if they could get it to look better on the ps3 I am sure they could by now! but the 360 version looks much cleaner and crisper as does skyrim, I suggest you go and rent the 360 version of skyrim, put it on a different hdmi port and see for yourself that the 360 version looks much much better! or your broke ass prolly lies about owning a 360 hence why you say you dont have live...silver is free so you can quit lying anytime now shadowthemetromoses900Blabadon

You didn't even read my post. And the PS3 version is perfectly fine, Lems just want to pretend it's bad or inferior because it helps them sleep better at night. I have 88% of Trophies in Skyrim on PS3. I have done all guilds, beaten the main quest, level 48, hundreds of hours in and no problems.

So explain how I managed to do all this if PS3 cannot handle Skyrim as you think?

skyrim on wii u would be awesome with that tablet controller. mems_1224

It would definately make some interesting gameplay possibilities. I personally think the tablet would be great for commanding allies with or conjured monsters (even though I don't use that skill), you could use the tablet to control them around from an ariel view kind of like an RTS? Or just play Skyrim on it normally.

The possibilities are quite open.

I'd lol if it could and PS3 cant'
