The funny thing is, you posted this and then went over to the Mass Effect 2 graphics thread and joined in a graphics war, comparing Uncharted 2 bullshots to Mass Effect 2 bullshots.
Rule of thumb: if it's a screenshot being released by the developer/publisher/press, then it's almost certainly a bullshot.
To use the U2 versus ME2 bullshot war as an example, the Mass Effect 2 pic you showed was very obviously a bullshot (or else was from the PC version), because there was no aliasing on the character model at all, whereas - from looking at Mass Effect 1 - we know that in reality there'll be loads.
Looky at this Mass Effect 1 shot, after all:

Doesn't look like any of the press-released screenshots we've seen of Mass Effect, does it? That's because it's direct feed, and not a bullshot, and as such the aliasing isn't hidden. The texture quality also takes a hit, as you can see.

Woe woe. Stop Sony Fanboys. This thread was not a hit at any one game. The article hits most developers.
If anything the ME pic you post looks identical to the Bioware released ones except for res. The textures look identical. It's common knowledge that ME has amazing character detail. Gears is another game with top character detailing. UE3 is prime for that.
Seriously. Sony fans are kicking up crap here, you dont see 360 fans saying stuff because they diss Halo 3 in the article do you?
