Quote [...] John Swinimer, Senior Public Relations Manager of Consumer Products, emphasized that the Wii architecture is capable of producing far better results than what we've witnessed thus far. "I think what you saw [on Wii] was just the tip of the iceberg of what the Hollywood chip can bring to the Nintendo Wii," he said
Good news for those dissapointed with the Wii's showcasing.
Capcom is making a new RE. I wonder how it will look...

Good to hear good to hear. I guess we won't really hear from them till the Wii is out.

I saw this news yesterday and thought about posting it, and for some reason never got around to it. But as soon as i read the quote up above the first thing that came to mind was this pic "Tip of the Iceberg"
So what I gather is that the games showed at E3 might not be truly representive of what Hollywood is capable of, if you take this interview and team it up with the supposedly "fake" Ubisoft interview from yesterday >Click Here<, it would appear that we they have only scratched the surface and things are actually alot deeper than they appear.

I'm not sure if that's real, but what I am sure of is that it doesn't belong in this thread.

So the PR guy says its just the tip of the Iceberg:
1. He's the PR guy.
2. So games in 2007-09 are going to look better than demos on non-final dev kits? You don't say.
This doesn't mean anything. It seems some ppl are making too much of this combined with some of the BS rumors (the Ati interview where he compares it to to an Radeon X1800) going around.

Yeah, this is pretty unexpected and thrilling news. I was certain that those beta games running off incomplete hardware were maxing out the Wii's graphical power!

Yeah, unfortunatley, the Wii's graphical capabalities would've been much better if it weren't for global warming.

Har har. Still, it's nice to hear a kind word about graphics.
I loved the look of SMG, and the fact it is only the "tip of the iceberg" is reassuring news.

Hopefully it will be a super-long game with a super-realistic Ada Wong. *drool*

I can't beleive that whatever ATI is cooking for the Wii is not better then there announced next gen of PC video cards. It normally takes a year or so for PC to pass and surpass Consoles. Besides some pushing from Nvidia and Microsoft if I were ATI I wouldn't be to anxious to get my PC line up to the equivalent for about year. Blame power requirements and generic drivers. For a chipmaker console business is good business. Really good business.
