Post by: Traveller on September 28, 2011, 02:51:53 AM

Vigil Games wants to take advantage of the new controller.

Vigil Games, the development studio behind the Darksiders series, is working hard to ensure that the Wii U version of Darksiders II will not only reach visual parity with competing HD consoles, but will also feature a control setup unique to the platform.

Jay Fitzloff of Vigil games said on the subject, "In the end it'll have such a unique control set - we think it's the best we can make for Wii U, but will it be definitive? You tell us when it comes out!"

For some reason I can't quote the source post, but it says they're working hard on making sure it will reach visual parity with competing HD consoles. Parity? Why not superiority?

They have already gone on record saying they've gotten parity.

Parity is good in regards to visuals, but superiority is set because on the Wii U it will run in 1080p while on the other HD consoles they be running the game in 720p at most... if they can even muster enough strength to run it like that without imploding.

I swear I posted this (among numerous other comments from these same devs) in the Wii U thread, but I'm sure they have gone on record that they are likely scaling down PC assets for the Wii U version and it will likely be the definitive console version for sure.
But I can't find it in that thread right now.
