Not even close; it cranks up the shiny-ness and glare/contrast filters to try to look better, but even Killzone Shadowfall on PS4 doesn't have animations/smoke/explosions as good as the 2005 trailer. |
The lighting is better in the final game, and the visuals are also more consistent overall, eg the faces stand out pretty weird in the reveal trailer.
It was a target render or basically concept art as they didn't have anything yet
There are many types of bullshots, from animated concept art to using pc footage. Sadly the only way you get the real deal nowadays is from people like BenVTrigger that post png of direct captures.
It works the other way around too. Almost every site uses jpg and YouTube. For example the quality difference with 1080p footage of Driveclub, while the top still suffers from jpg compression. 
You tube videos used to hide a lot of the flaws, nowadays they're a curse making 1080p hardly look better than last gen's you tube videos.
