I can't say this for a fact, but I am fairly certain they capture PS3 output improperly.
This happened a year or two ago with Gametrailers as well, they settings of the PS3 and the method used to capture video would lead to washed out colors and slight loss of detail on PS3 screenshots. Immediately after looking through the Lens of Truth comparisons, you can tell the colors of PS3 games appear to be washed out.
After looking through the MW2 comparison, that appears to be the only difference between the two. The PS3 version appears washed out and as a result some of the details are lost. In reality the colors and lighting of the two are likely identical as with every other aspect of the game.
