Yeah, you are pretty much completely wrong. I have a 360, and just finished Bioshock, with all of its "hi-def" graphics and "realistic" textures and lighting, and you know what? Metroid's graphics are actually BETTER! I am not kidding at all. It doesn't have the high-resolution so-called 'realism' of some games on other consoles, but what the hell does that matter when the art design and execution COMPLETELY make up for it in every way? I have lived through many a hi-def game, and RARELY can they stack up to what Prime 3 delivers.
I can't begin to imagine either:
A: What your expectations were, are you new to the Wii?
B: What piece of crap TV you are trying to play on
C: Whether you have the 'hi-def' video cables, which are a must.
D: How you can say that this game looks like N64/Gamecube with a straight face.

I mean, RE 4 had great graphics, but Prime 3 BLOWS THEM AWAY. Even Zelda: TP has great graphics, and Prime 3 BLOWS THEM AWAY!
If you're on drugs or something, I suggest you stop taking them. If you're not on drugs, maybe you should start.
This game dominates in every conceivable way, and the very though of such ridiculously wrong statements possibly hurting the sales of this masterpiece gets my blood boiling. Did I mention you are totally wrong?

Someone is in denial. Bioshock looks infinitely better than Metroid, there isn't really anything that Metroid has better. (just talking about graphics) But Metroid is much more fun than Bioshock IMO so that more than makes up for the graphics.

This really wasn't a debate on whether or not the game was fun, it was that he thought the graphics were a let down. Which I agree, simply because I have higher expectations than most of you do. Also the wii will never have better graphics than an XBOX 360 game or a PS3 game, so people need to stop comparing the Wii to them.

Yah, he is obviously lying about owning a 360 and finishing bioshock if he says metroid offers better art design and what not. or maybe he just played through with his eyes closed..

i also love how he claims its a must for high def cables. they hardly make a difference when it only supports 480p.

Metroid Prime 3 doesn't have anywhere near the graphics of Bioshock. That isn't on the designers but rather the hardware - the Wii just cannot provide the same power as the 360.

That being said, how can anyone be disappointed with the graphics of MP3? It's easily, easily the best looking Wii game so far. It's better looking than Zelda and better looking than RE4. N64? Seriously, don't go there because that is just stupid. Have you played a 64 game lately? Go download Ocarina of Time, which was great in its day, and thell me it's on the same level as MP3.

I expect only one game to even challenge Metroid's graphics between now and the launch of Super Mario Galaxy - Zak and Wiki.

Fair enough, but at least people like me mentioned we were not disappointed with the visuals, and included that the game is fun. Also having it look this good adds to it being fun, so yes in a way graphics are linked with how fun it is.

Artistically, Metroid Prime 3 can stack up against any 1080p title.

that dosent make sense. 1080p just makes the picture more clear and crisp

[kevbomac05]

nintendo could of put a higher graphics card in the wii but they are cheap so they sell it for 250 and make a shit load of profit

That makes sense, he is saying Metroid is not as sharp as some titles but artistically it is better. I agree with that, especially the colour and level design
