BrentonMadden NFL Wii-Xbox 360 Comparison

Many people claim the Wii will lose out due to its lack of graphics power. Nintendo insists that people will buy the Wii simply because its fun and not because of graphics.
Looking at games from the Xbox 360/playstaiton 3 and comparing them to the Nintendo Wii it is obvious the Wii games don’t look as good. However, just how big is the difference? Will you even notice the difference after playing a game from the Wii for more than a half hour?
Why do they review graphics in games? ‘Oh look at the pretty ripple effect’ for instance, yeah, so what? Nice to look at, but just how much will I be concentrating on it while playing the game?
I know for a fact no matter how good a game looks, at some point you cease to tell the difference between appearances. Sure a still shot looks all pretty, but play a game for a bit more than ten or fifteen minutes and you don’t really take note of the great graphics.
Despite what you have just read, I confess graphics comparisons in games is quite fun, even if as shallow as a puddle of water. I took a screenshot (courtesy of IGN) from ‘Madden NFL 2007’ a popular cross-platform game, one screenshot is from the Xbox 360, the other from the Nintendo Wii.

Anyway, both look a lot better than the ps2's graphics and similarly each look great.

Even still screenshots and the difference isn't so obvious... they both don't look too bad... If you had a HD TV though the difference might have shown bit more, but that is all dependant I guess...
