The only thing thats "polished" in those screenshots is the antialiasing. Its 4xAA when you play and around 24xAA in those screenshots. Everything else (textures, lighting, models etc.) is just like in the game when you play it.

the fact is they should not have to touch up the screens, sorry, but i see uncharted 2 screenshots, and i must admit it actually looks better when i play it myself, there is no need to touch up screens if a game is good it shall speak for itself....

That's a very weird stance to take, considering that's exactly what everyone does with pre-release screenshots. And the native resolution the game runs in makes for very tiny pictures if they put it in print, so higher resolution is also needed. Uncharted 2's pre-release screenshots were most likely all touched up in a similar manner.
