[QUOTE="Redmoonxl2"]Graphics matter?

The 8 million playing WoW over Vanguard, EVE and EQ2 disagree.

Both graphics and gameplay matter. If given the choice between playing WoW on a cheap, low-end, Dell vs a high-end Dell XPS/Alienware, I'd choose playing WoW on the high end rig.



Which doesn't mean a thing because the only differences between WoW on a highend rig and WoW on a lowend rig are draw distance and brighter, sharper colors. Still doesn't change the fact that WoW looks extremely dated to games like Vanguard and EQ2. Seems like people don't care, however.

[QUOTE="PikaPichu"][QUOTE="Nex_Ownage"]So you're telling me that Wii's graphics aren't as good as X360's/PS3's???.. :shock:..:shock:.:shock:.. N000000es!!!!!111!!..:cry:..

It's true!11!! And somehow the sheep seemed to have gotten all high and mighty over it. :?

Could it be that they are just satisfied with the level of graphics the wii is capable of ?? I know, i know...It is unimaginable how someone could be able to enjoy a game without HDR, per-pixel- lightning and a 346484037x26829363 resolution, but maybe just maybe , they aren't really intrested in a physx-enabled mario game or playing pokemon with the U3 engine?.. Just a thought..:?..

Graphics are always nice but you know how bad that basketball game sucks right? I mean wow NBA 07 is really bad. So you aren't putting up much an argument with graphics. Now if you were to use GeOW well that would be better.

[QUOTE="6icks_tea_4hoar"]gameplay means nothing to you? (assuming the wii version is superior)PikaPichu
Gameplay does matter to me and if the Wii version did offer superior gameplay I would buy that version.



So then who cares how a game looks? It should only be judged on how it plays?

It's not like Wii owners are playing text based games. :|

Geez, you make it sound like they're going to suffer from their eyes being ripped out because of how "awful" a game like Mario Galaxy will look on screen.

Hmm maybe I should throw out all my consoles. I mean after all Crysis just pwns them into oblivion. Why should I bother with inferior console graphics? Consoles are inferior and have crap graphics :roll:

Yet the same people who bash Wii for graphics are the same ones who say Crysis will be bad because its all graphics and no gameplay. Oh the irony.

why do people still do this and say that the sheep are dumb for liking the Wii because you can get a prettier picture on the PS3 or 360.... ITS ABOUT GAMES....And_the_Wii_delivers!

Stop and think next time you post about how superior the 360/PS3 graphics are... I think sheep know.

Why do i put up with bad graphics because hard games are the best, games which givbe you something new to do are intresting, because I am feed up of pressing X to pick things up. Until Xbox360 or PS3 get those things i couldent careless. Amazing Graphics is for shallow people.

You can appreciate the beauty of a game all you want but is that the point behind buying a game? Forgive me if I'm a bit foolish but isn't the purpose of a game to, you know, play it? You can have all the prettiest graphics in the world but if the core game doesn't work, there's no point in playing it now is there?

I play GeOW because it plays good not because it looks good. Games are meant to be played not meant to be looked and gawked at. The visuals are not what throws me into the intensity of the world. The gun shots, the screaming, the loud shouts, the thunderous bass of Boomers on my sound system, the flanking, the strategy, having to make the perfect reload and get the shot gun blast off before you get sawed into pieces, and the intense nature of the dodging, ducking and moving. That is why I like the game.

again all i have to say is whatever.
just close your eyes and try and play again i guess. if all you need is sound and a controler.
art is just as imporant as gameplay. you should have both.

[QUOTE="zzzaaa"]The Wii version wouldnt look as good as the second picture :D

True. The Wii version would probably have less polygons, smaller maps, dumbed down physics, and inferior AI because of its woefully underpowered (relatively speaking) processor and graphics chips.

Are you guys still bashing the Wii's visuals? :| Aren't you tired of it yet? It got old right around E3 '06.

again. you should have both. ever since the third gen and nintendo's lack of graphics the agrument of graphics dont matter started to come into play. when back when the cube was out it out powered the ps2 and was argued to have the graphical edge. tell me that wii users were not thrilled about twilight princess not being like it's cell shaded predeseccor.

[QUOTE="PikaPichu"][QUOTE="foxhound_fox"][QUOTE="PikaPichu"]Compared to games like Gears, Resistance, and Fight Night, yes I think the visuals in those games are a little lacking.axt113


When you consider of the hardware they are running on, no they are not.

The Wii is not capable of doing things like Gears, so obviously, comparing Wii game graphics to those of Gears is pointless.

In terms of the hardware, the Wii will not really be lacking in the visual department.

That's the thing. If a game were available across all the platforms, I'd be more inclined to choose the PS3/360 version over the Wii version because they would have the same type of gameplay with sharper visuals. The Wii's hardware limits how good its games can look.

Ah but as Madden proved, Wii can make the gameplay better

Agreed! I think we'll start seeing "multi-platform exclusives" games that have been developed specifically for the Wii buy dedicated teams rather than simply ported over as would be the case for 360/PS3 games. That way sports games will be just as good (or better) on the Wii then on the other current gen consoles and take full advantage of the Wii-mote.

[QUOTE="VGobbsesser"]Graphics matter,but not as much as gameplay.BigDizz
You play games because they are fun, graphics just compliment.

Graphics are more important then that. They add to the experience by allowing more realistic visuals, better animations (more moves etc.) and help to immerse you in the game. Awesome graphics mixed with awesome gameplay = an outstanding game. Both have a big part to play.

I was just at the store and noticed a (working! omgz!!) PS3 demo unit. Some kids were playing a basketball game on it and boy did it look sharp! After seeing that, how can sheep keep saying that graphics don't matter? Don't they realize that a game can be both fun and look nice to boot!?

It seems that the only games that look decent on the Wii are the ones that have a bright and vibrant color scheme. Other games that want to take a more realistic tone tend to look pretty crummy. To illustrate my point assume that a typical 360/PS3 game would look like this



This is assuming that you're playing on a nice HDTV, so those of you who play on SDTVs don't bother.

How can the sheep stand this?! If there's such thing as a 'blind' fanboy, it may as well be sheep because they would have to be blind to choose a blurry mess like that over the sharp HD graphics of the other 2 consoles. :lol:

I don't know where you're hearing about this "graphics don't matter" crap, but it's a bunch of baloney. Of course graphics matter, and whoever says otherwise is in denial (cow-bashing sheep). Similarly, whoever places an unreasonable amount of emphasis on graphics as opposed to gameplay is also in denial (sheep-bashing cows).

I am unlike the other sheep I LOVE good graphics, but i LOVE playen fun games. With the wii, its capable of pulling off games looking sharper then RE4 on Cube. that game looked nice.. wii can do better. wii will do better. sorry for double post.
