So has the Wii proven itself to be more powerful than the Xbox?

Topic

My opnion: Yes, because of SMG.

I don't think so.....I haven't see a game that couldn't be done on xbox

Every single game that is out on the Wii could be done on the Xbox..

so no..

Yes... the GC had games that were very near Xbox... RS2 anyone...

No.

No Wii game has beaten the Chronicles of Riddick, Ninja Gaiden Black, Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory in the graphics department.

Resident Evil 4: Wii edition got a 9 in graphics and it's 2 year old Gamecube game! what does that say to you? The answer is in my sig.

i say yes...just because Mario galaxy looks better than any game i've seen on the xbox, as does metroid prime 3. Even read over at n4g.com that metroid prime 3 "looks beautiful", and "looks light years ahead of Halo 2 on the original xbox, showing that the Wii has more horsepower than the Xbox." Which is dumb anyway lol...of course the Wii is supposed to be more powerful than the xbox. duble_Needler23

Does MP3 have a single normal map? How is the AI? Do multiple factions battle it out before your eyes? If you've never played an Xbox game, then you don't understand the power of Xbox. This isn't a fanboy talking. The Xbox was a next-gen system. The Wii is a small white Gamcube with flash memory and an over-clocked Gekko CPU.

The Wii will never have a game that beats Halo 1 (a 6 year old game) in terms of scale, normal maps, AI, and physics. The Xbox GPU supports shaders.Berserker_2

Here's an example of an Xbox game. It is not the best pic of this game, either. Can the Wii do this? Absolutley not. No shaders on Wii. Sorry, guys, but Bill Gates didn't spend 2 billion on Xbox 1 for no reason.

not yet, you will have to wait until August 27th, November 12th, and December 3rd to really get your answers. ;)kansasdude2009

We already have our answer- no need to wait.

Chronicles of Riddick was a great and beautiful game graphically.

I don't know about all the shaders and what not, but I don't see a Wii game even close to this.

Thanks. You should see the pic of Riddick that I just posted.

The Wii can do normal maps or shaders... they just arn't standard... you have to do custom shaders, and mapping.

Though I have to ask.

Why does Luigi's Mansion, a LAUNCH GC game, look better than most of the games on the Wii?

I would say that the Wii will most likely end up more powerful, as system's improve graphically over their lifespan, but right now it's on par with the best the Xbox ever offered if not a little below.Sacred-Snow

If you put the games side-by-side, the Wii games would look obsolete.

because most developers don't put any effort in getting the most out of the TEV unit...

The Wii can do normal maps or shaders... they just arn't standard... you have to do custom shaders, and mapping.

The Atari 2600 can do shaders, if it has 10,000 years to render a scene. In fact, you can use pencil and paper mathmatics to generate a normal map. The GC and Wii do not have the hardware to perform these calculations in real-time. The Xbox does.

Im glad someone else here understands what's really going on with Wii games...

Same reason it looks better than most p2 games.

Part of the issue is that Nintendo has made the argument that "graphics don't matter". They probably lowered their standards in terms of graphics. Perhaps they even encouraged weak graphics because of this philosphy.

Actually it does... and the GC has it too... it's called the TEV unit... it's basicaly just there for programable shaders and other effects...

just so everyone knows......nothing will be proven in this thread and there is no end to the arguing.MikeE21286

I actually agree. I played, beat, and quite enjoyed the game... but I don't remember it looking so sharp. Perhaps my eyes?
