Scarface dev likes what is under the Wii's hood
Geoff Thomas, producer at Radical Entertainment, recently sat down with CVG to talk about the upcoming Wii version of his game Scarface: The World is Yours. In talking about Nintendo's latest console, he said
the Wii "has a lot of horsepower under the hood and we're making full use of it." Sure, that's vague, but he does go into some detail about the graphical improvements over its previous iterations.
In speaking about the differences between the Wii version's graphics when compared to the already-released versions, Geoff says they "overhauled our graphics engine to get the most out of the console by updating all of the shaders responsible for rendering the environment, vehicle, and characters. In many ways Scarface looks sharper on the Wii than it does on the PS2 and Xbox." This should come as good news to those Wii owners out there who have been complaining that the graphics aren't up to snuff.
