MY HAIR ISN'T PLASTICS TIVO!!!

Everything is rumour.
So the posts here are getting more and more presumptuous.

What's the use of having the most photorealistic graphics if the gameplay and story of the game are terrible. I love Battlefield 3, but I have to admit it sucks right now.

-typing with split keyboard is awesome and confusing sometimes.

UE4 isn't going to be released properly for a couple of years anyway, and in the meantime I think I'll be pretty happy with UE3 + extra bells and whistles (compared to PS360). If it ends up Wii U can't run UE4, lets just hope Epic make it easy for devs to port their games between the two engines.

so this pretty much means the only console that will maybe run unreal engine 4 may be the ps4 so it may not be the main nextgen engine for games? maybe lol. im saying this because dev kits for the xbox 720 are being released in august and im guessing that UE4 will start being used in late 2013 and that will give sony time to tweak the hardware to run it.
If nintendo thinks devs need UE4 for their console , they will make it compatible. Im sure

the article is bollocks.. lol :P

I mean even amd 5870 was 2.7 tflops card, but it was -20% -30% from gtx480 with 1.7 (cant remember) tflops.. Its not only the tflops that matter in a card, especially in a console video card. From the rumors, I speculate that wii U will be around 1, 1.2 tflops video card, and I believe its fine.. for UE4.

I mean, if we have to believe this article, then 5870 is capable to run UE4, and gtx480 that is +20 +30% better than 5870, cannot. Let me also state it differently... The only dedicated cards, that can run solo samaritan demo and UE4, are the keplers and Tahiti chipsets by amd (gtx680 - 7970)... You think that Sony with all this problems, will add a card of that potential in their console? So how much ps4 is going to cost us... 1000? 2000? lol

I believe UE4 will show up at 2014.. Due to AMD and NVIDIA cards, Nvidia will stop producing cards every year, so they will have 1 series per 2 years and also at 2014, directx12 will show up... GTX 780 that is the top model of 6xx series (due for marketing reasons to balance the model name with AMD, 8xxx series next year, nvidia will name the half 6xx series as 7xx, so the next series will be called 8xx series.. lol complicated). Also never forget that every console needs up to 2 years, for the developers to start showing the machines teeth.. that means wii U may be capable in many aspects of UE4..Will see..

UE4 is scalable, so you will be able to have a superduper UE4 game on PS4, a good enough one on 720, and a passable one on Wii U.
That's the goal Epic have stated at least.

what do you mean by passable? are you saying it won't be up to snuff with what games next gen should be?

I'm saying it's not going to be a Wii situation again.
You'll be able to play the games, but they won't look the best on the Wii U.

yah i know what you mean. but then again the 720 will only come out a year later (been confirmed) and alot of specs seem very similar so i dont think the wii u and xbox will be very different in terms of the way it plays. but the ps4 OHHHH boy sony will have a great oppurtunity there

No, they never said they were going to release it next year.

All we know it's not 2012.

Apparently most games nowadays need to look good in order to appeal to a mass audience.

Except for COD It just has to have its name on the box I mean I bet when next gen comes its still going to be using the same engine from 2007/8 and still going to be bought.

It's only a matter of time until it gets worn out. I'd give it about 2 more years.

this isnt something new, games have always needed to look good in order to have a mass appeal.
