Hey Guest. Check out your NeoGAF Wrapped 2025 results here!
Bethesda's "Mature" Wii Game Is Wheelspin

I definitely believe Wii games looking like shit is due to the fact that the developers just don't try.JDSN said:
There ARE good looking Wii games. Like your avatar (NMH), Muramasa, Mad World (in its own right), Mario Galaxy, and of course Brawl.
I know it's capable of Gamecube graphics with some shiny added, but the mindset of most of the devs and publishers seems to be that "If we make it, they will buy it..."
The Wii's strength could be its stylized graphics if more devs would attempt that instead of trying to port a serious game (like Modern Warfare).

this is serious?
WOW.
effort is the word you are looking for.
if activision care as much about MW on wii as HVS cared about the conduit the game would look extremely solid.

Aaaaah, great memories. This game reminds me so much of Pod when I bought my first Voodoo 3DFX in...was it 1996 or something like this ?

Slightly above average looking Wii game gets no hype. More at 11!JDSN said:

I couldn't believe my eyes when I first launched the game on the 3DFX. I was thinking : "Where are the pixels ??? This is magic !"

The graphics make more sense when you see that it has 60 fps 4-player splitscreen and 30 fps 8-player splitscreen

You guys obviously aren't mature enough to "get" this game.
Oh, what the hell. Neither am I. Bloody hell, Bathesda.

Pretty bad.
Dev need to hang their heads in shame.
We need a GAF tribunal; headed by Amir0X and staffed by some of the other mods, Anihawk could be a special prosecutor. Drinky could be that mad judge who makes blithering, rambling judgements and only half pays attention to the proceedings.
Treyarch and Bethesda will be put on trial for crimes against gaming.

realistic wii games wont look as good as games on more powerful consoles, but realistic art styles have been realized on consoles even inferior to the wii.
gritty war games will and should have realistic artstyles.
lets not pretend HD consoles or even the PC are photorealistic here. sure, standards change, but certain styles dont ever become unrealizable on inferior systems. MGS3 still looks good on PS2. half life 2 still looks good. splinter cell still looks good.

Saw the screens now, and.. wow. Just wow. I've seen old PS2 games with more impressive graphics. Pretty fucking sad if you ask me.

Biggest disappointment I can remember in a LOOOOOONG time. What's mature about a racing game?
but soccer moms have to drive their kids to practice????

saw the videos. while it llooks like it could be fun, it still looks like garbage shovelware.
the animation is awful, the effects are awful, the geometry, the textures, the visuals in general are trash. no other way to put.
and i seriously doubt this will be a solid effort even with the crappy visuals. i doubt this will have good online gameplay and plenty of multiplayer options to try to compensate for the shortcomings in the graphics department.

I'm looking forward to the game.
I actually think he was talking about development on the system (as in harnessing it properly and doing games that really make use of everything) rather than target audience, and I honestly think this game could be kinda fun. No, this isn't a joke post.
...But holy heeeell does it need a lot of work. I'm happy they're targeting 480p/60fps on this; I honestly think that all Wii devs should -- blow out everything the system has in the way some devs did with the GameCube. The comparisons to GX are so very, very apt, GripShift too. Slather the thing in neat textures and solid lighting, blow out the level design and really play with the level design to get it, I dunno, to Extreme-G levels at least.
So, uh, make everything better? Archer Maclean isn't a hack; he knows how to make games fun, but if this isn't an alpha WIP version of things, people will laugh this game to grave.

I'm disappointed this was the game as I was kind of hoping for an RPG type affair (though I don't know why, as I dislike Bethesda games).
But on the subject of the graphics, which is all this thread is about, I'll happily take shitty graphics if it gives me splitscreen. Fuck this generation.
