  Good news for Wii gamers but they have to be joking if they think that matches the PS3 and 360, i mean yes it looks pretty and its a step up from most Wii games but it still looks rather ugly.

  This confuses me particularly because the Wii was never about grpahics. Yes, its a step up from all the Wii games right now, but its still very pale in comparison to the visuals in 360 and PS3 games.

  That's actually pretty damn good on the Wii, more Wii games should be created off this engine alone. But yo...to compare it against the graphic engines like Unreal (Gears of War) and Guerilla's own personal engine (Killzone 2), it's pretty hard to call it the most powerful.

    Agreed, but I don't think anyone called it "the most powerful."
    
    Now we need developers to stop using old PS2 graphic engines, and instead use this engine. (Quantum3)
    
    (btw, YouTube degraded the quality of this video, it looks even better in high quality)

      That's true, the comment below the video derailed me then. And the Youtube player really does not do the video justice...I think we need someone to change that into a NeoPlayer vid, maybe?

  Looks like a slightly better looking PSP game to me. I mean Silent Hill Origins has dynamic soft shadows and Syphon Filter Logans Shadow has displacing water.

    _{Your right, and i gave you thumbs up. While it does look better than the other games the Wii has, right now i can't see it competing with the 360 or PS3, only cause the system is far to advance to the Wii.}

  I'm sorry. Let me try again for positive thumbs. Wii has amazing graphics!!!! Quantum3 blows my mind! Look how crystal clear that Standard Definition 480 progressive picture looks! Oh my god!

  Dude, grow up. I mean seriously.
  
  Anyway, I really hope they release gameplay footage of The Conduit soon. The Conduit is running on this engine, and I'm curious to see how good this game will look compared to other Wii games.

    Grow up? He said nothing more than an intelligent observation about these "amazing" graphics, nothing degrading in the least, but he got 2 thumbs down. Whats makes the whole thumbs down geeks on this site even worse, is that they don't even give you a reply. They thumb you down because you hurt their e-feelings, and just keep it moving. The shit is comedy.
    
    Yea, the graphics are good, I guess, but it immediately struck me as a God of War II scene on PlayStation 2. I don't see what the big deal is.

      Well, compared to some of the crap the Wii's got so far, I think Quantum3 looks pretty damn good.
      
      Of course, it's not 360/PS3 standards, but still.

      Personally, I don't care much about what jmac said, but saying that it looks like a this just because of displacing water could be seen as being rather irrational. Although the game using it isn't looking too incredible so far (although it is in a very early stage), the engine's tech demo is certainly well beyond anything the PSP ever handle. That's perfectly understandable, seeing as it's running on a machine much more powerful then a three-year-old handheld.
      
      Let's say someone says that Gears of War looks only slightly better than Star Wars Rogue Squadron II, since they both use bump-mapping. Would that be seen as an intelligent observation, or simply fanboyism? Because honestly, that's exactly what I'm seeing here.
      
      I'm not saying that people should barrage his post with thumbs-down, because again, I don't really care. However, it is simply a fact that the tech demo is well beyond what the PSP can accomplish. Not up to PS3/360 standards, but certainly out of the PSP's league. I suppose Youtube may have messed up the quality of the original trailer, though.

        You do know Syphon Filter on PSP looks alot better than this stuff and i mean their tech demo even stutters in places, i mean there is nothing on screen to give it frame rate issues, oh yeah it lacks the hardware to run this engine properly, the PSP can do alot lol... More than the Wii it seems.

        I hope you aren't judging it based on that Youtube video. Again, Youtube really messed up the quality. I didn't notice a single stutter in the original video on IGN. It isn't the best quality (rather low-res video), but it's still way more than anything the PSP could ever do. Arguing that is completely absurd (again, the Wii is many times more powerful then a PSP). The water alone is much better looking, and that isn't counting all of the detailed bump-mapped textures, great lighting and slew of other effects running at the same time. Again, no PSP game looks nearly as detailed.
        
        Again, some of it doesn't show in the video except close-up, but considering videos rarely do a game justice, that shouldn't be an issue when on-screen.

  Not bad, but I really doubt this will compete with even 50% of the games out on 360 and PS3
