Bayonetta 2's model alone has 126,000 polygons in it. (from the developer documentary)
her 360 model had 23,000
Kratos from God of war 3 and ascension has 22,000
The current wii u is considerably more powerful than the early devkit used for the bird demo.
And yes, flying through a massive city bigger than any environment ever shown in gow3 or ascension at break neck speed with more enemies on screen than gow 3, all higher (waaaaayyyy higher) poly and better textured than god of war 3, with much better image quality than gow 3, at twice the frame rate of gow3, is a lot more impressive than 1 big boss, sorry, half of 1 big boss, a tiny play area, a skybox, and nothing else in the scene like gow3/ascension.
Its.... not looking good for you champ.
i am talking a visual front,the plane for example in that bayonetta demo looks like its made from cardboard NOT metal,god of war LOOKS alot better imo and alot of other peoples,bayonetta may use more polys etc but it DOSNT look that good,just average
