You have to agree with EA, Wii graphics arent broadcast quality like they say.

As OrphanageExplosion said, they should get an ASA boot in the gonads for the NFS ads too

“Footage representative of gameplay”

Er no, no it’s not – the footage didn’t stutter, pause or tear once – and there were cars on the road other than your own!

It’s like the Amiga shots on C64 boxes days all over again

i would be interested to see a screen shot of the Wii version, i’ve played the PS3 version which looks pretty good, i wouldn’t mind seeing how shit the Wii version actually looks.

What a bunch of morangs.
They should have done it the Nintendo way and ot shown any game play at all. Just have a bunch of well adjusted people chip away in their living room.

At least they’re using actual game footage now and not some piece of CGI fantasy. It’s a step in the right direction.

Absurd. In what sense would it ‘not be of broadcast quality’? Standard def PAL TV is 576i, the Wii outputs at 576i. Just admit the agency thought it looked like ass.

Understandable..
Wii graphics are poor xD
but you can’t just use 360 footage for advertising a Wii game…
but, whatever .. ^^

The Need for Speed ad doesn’t look like ANY version of the game!

They explained that Wii footage would not be of broadcast quality

Zing!
