Ubisoft: There’s no point in doing realistic looking Wii games

“Why compete with the 360? The Conduit is a great example. Talk about an incredible piece of technology. Those guys did an amazing job of modernizing the Wii engine. It’s got to be frustrating for [Conduit dev, High Voltage]. Gamers will see the flaws, not your work. They’re not going to see all the effort you put in. Any developers working on the Wii, I recommend you stylise the look because it helps. I think it looks cool anyway.” -Red Steel 2 Creative Director, Jason Vandenberghe
You know… I hate to admit it, but I almost have to agree with him on this one. Just looking at how The Conduit’s visuals were received, and then seeing the praise given to games like Red Steel 2 or No More Heroes, it’s hard to disagree! Plus, I do prefer my games a little on the unrealistic side.
