Wii game engine promises PS3 visuals

Sorry if it's been posted already...

"High Voltage Software is hoping to change the face of Wii video games, with its new Quantum3 engine, which is claimed to enable Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 visuals on the tiny Wii console.

Quantum3 is the result of 15 years development experience and enables developers to make use of advanced graphical features, including better dynamic bump mapping, light effects, glossing and other visual improvements. Additionally, Quantum3 uses a 16 TEV stage material pipeline that can blend up to 8 separate texture sources.

"The Wii platform is capable of a lot more than what consumers have seen so far. We're hoping to raise a new bar," said High Voltage Software CEO Kerry Ganofsky."

To sum it up, higher resolution = more power needed. Since Wii doesn't come close to the promised resolutions of 360 and Ps3 and comes nowhere close to PC resolutions.

I honestly think the Wii could push out the graphics of games like Perfect Dark 0.

Hm... maybe by "PS3 visuals" they meant the really early, and crappy port jobs of games when the PS3 first released. Like F.E.A.R.

that wouldn't even do it.

more like ps2 FPSes from 2002 or something.

That I would love to see. Then I would love to see it on the Ps3 and 360 and blow Crysis out of the water. Then put it on the PC and blow real life away graphically :shock:!

:roll:

Usually texutres and graphical effects are considered a leap in graphics...

Metroid Prime is done.

That ending suggested otherwise ;).

High Voltage Software are lying (Spelling?) if they claim it will look as good as PS3 and 360 games.

Factor 5 said there Wii Engine can do everything there Lair Engine did and More it just wouldn't be at the same Resolution but it can still do everything that there PS3 engine was capable of.

i know. PDZ looks amazing because of the textures IMO.

I was just saying since it's impossible for Wii to do those textures, it wouldn't look good because that's really all it had going for it.

Metroid Timeline

1. Metroid/Zero Mission
2. Metroid Prime
3. Metroid Prime Hunters
4. Metroid Prime 2: Echoes
5. Metroid Prime 3: Corruption
6. Metroid 2: Return of Samus
7. Super Metroid
8. Metroid Fusion

Also when he Said Metroid Prime was done He was meaning that Retro Studios Officially said they were taking a break from Metroid for a while.

But did Return of Samus, Super Metroid, or Fusion have Dark Samus? And what about the SA-X? A few mysteries that Nintendo could conveniently use to make another Metroid.
