The GT5 pic posted by Selnor aka the biggest Gran Turismo fanboy evar is indeed the mother of all bullshots. It's actually a GT5 model car on a GT PSP track which is embarrassing. That said the Eurogamer article is beyond retarded especially when he starts mentioning GT5:P to GT5.

That GT5 trailer was nothing special and anyone who has played GT5:P will know that the replay mode looks very good. Sure GT5 will not be not quite up to that GT5 trailer but it will be very close. Has to be said..........Forza 3 screens so far have all been bullshots and anyone whom visits Gaf will know that chespace even mentioned it. With class though it must be said mentioning how he will post gameplay shots of the cars when Polyphony Digital do so.

Tomorrow is going to be very fun; I call dibs on the GT5 thread which will be full of PD hate led by me if GT5 is not shown at Gamescom. PD will NOT ruin by birthday. >:(

Forza 3 Screenshots and Videos. We released a generous helping of Forza Motorsport 3 screenshots and videos this week. If you haven't seen them yet, go check 'em out in our Media Gallery. There are some things you should know about these screenshots. First of all, at Turn 10, we don't bullshot -- which means everything you see here is real-time taken from in-game gameplay. The E3 batch was taken back in early May, and given how the development process works, the game is improving just about daily, so the bottomline is that these screenshots are from a work-in-progress. Naturally, the game will actually look better by the time it comes out later this fall. The reason why you might have mistaken these screenshots as faked, touched-up, or embellished art is because Forza 3 is an exceedingly gorgeous game.

There's really no bigger graphics junkie than myself at Turn 10 and I'm constantly surprised by just how insanely next generation the game looks from a visual standpoint. Not only have the cars themselves gotten much more detailed, our 100+ tracks in the game provide some truly inspired locales to fuel your car passion. Much of the leap in graphical fidelity with Forza 3 was made possible by our game engine developers, whom, in the early days (think summer of 2007) set out to rebuild a new renderer and content pipeline for Forza 3. So just like before, Forza 3 runs at a glassy smooth 60 frames-per-second, with our physics calculating underneath the hood at a much higher framerate. New shaders and tech puts the finishing touches on an already handsome Forza Motorsport 2. Likewise, with the gameplay video, everything was captured in-game with no faked CG whatsoever. At Turn 10, we don't do bullshots.

Official website. This being written on there means if they did post bullshots they can be sued for millions for false advertisement.

He doesn't seem to know what a bullshot is. He just said there was no faked CGI, and it was all in game. Which is true. That doesn't mean they're not bullshots, did you read the article you posted?
