My comment wasn't really me wondering anything about the subject. I know what CGI is. I was being a tad sarcastic.

But I still think many games achieve CGI (or near CGI, to suit your narrative) quailty. But there will always be a gap between the most cutting edge pre-rendered CGI, and real-time graphics. That doesn't mean the latter can't look like CGI at all.

What's up with all the editing your posts afterwards? :)

Of course there will always be a gap, no matter how the "narrative" is. And it doesn't have to be the most cutting edge technology.

It's just a question to what people define CGI by themselves and when you set your standards low enough, it can of course look like CGI (whatever that means in that context). So yeah, when people say "It's CGI quality!", perhaps this has other reasons.

Still you will hardly find a game that beats ND games when it comes to combination of tech and art-style.

I don't think anyone needs to put their standard low to think Uncharted 4 looks like CGI. It may not be Pixar quality, but it's certainly not on the low end either.
