Post by: Smooth Groove on July 30, 2007, 12:59:42 AM: Not a real question, right? Since GC>PS2, and PS2>PSP. However, WII games seem to have significantly worse graphics than GC despite the WII's extra power. I guess all the extra power went to the waggle. lol

Yeah, RE4 looked way better on my CRT two years ago than it does on my 1080P XBR3 today. WII+HDTV is a worse match than Kevin Ferderline and Britney. Playing RE4 WII also reminded me of how crappy RE's controls still are. It's basically a FPS with crap controls. I loved and finished the game but it had many flaws that people overlooked. It's just wrong when the main challenge of a game is overcoming flawed controls/camera,etc.

Isn't the same basically true of any PSP game? PSP dither is worse than any other system I've seen.

But it's far less noticeable on a small screen. It's the same reason why PSP games can get away with much lower polygon counts than PS2 games.

What does DS dither have to do with PSP/WII comparisons, Master Troll?

Wait, is that true? 4-bit palettized textures? DS has graphical issues for sure, but most of the games seem to focus on other areas as a result.

It's probably true but DS 2.5D games like New Super Mario Bros are still pretty good looking. True 3D games on the DS mostly look terrible though. I guess it's why Nintendo doesn't make more PSP like games.
