Yeah it's always good to be wary of pre-release promises of a console's power. PS3 and PS2 are probably the most egregious examples, but I'm sure if you look you can find plenty of other cases of companies over-promising on what their hardware can do.

Tech demos should also be taken with a huge grain of salt; even if they are indeed running on the hardware, its easy to make something look great within the limitations of a scripted demo where you don't have to worry about AI, a free camera, or any of the other trappings of an actual working game.

There are probably some people still waiting on that tech demo of Zelda.

I know. I'm one of them! XD
