Here’s an interesting article for those of you who really care about 3D graphics and what not. Destructoid.com took the liberty to compare two screenshots of a tank in the upcoming Call of Duty 3 game. One screenshot came from the Xbox 360 while the other came from the Nintendo Wii game console. The concensus? The Wii image utterly stinks compared to the 360 output. Assuming all the test conditions were nearly the same (meaning the video output was on an HDTV and the screenshots were from similar builds of the video game), then yes.. the Wii’s 3D rendering is poorer than the Xbox 360 – at least in this game. But then again.. the Wii is also cheaper and isn’t in the same market segment as the 360. I used to be into the whole 3D graphics thing too – had to have the best anti-aliasing around, and the richest textures and what not.. but if the game is good.. it’s good. Call of Duty 3 will probably be good no matter what platform you play it on. IF you can afford an Xbox 360 then get it.. but if all you can get is a Nintendo Wii and you understand the limitations of the platform, then by all means, get the game too! (and play A LOT OF IT!)
