Other than the intro, GT doesn't have cutscenes. Most likely it's just a shot from the replay to give the image a more authentic feel. There is no post-processing done to the replays as you can switch camera angle to the driven one, and it looks the same whilst racing, but the exterior views show the graphics at their best.

If you don't believe the graphics are tarted up for replays (which i meant to say) then you're only kidding yourself.

Considering the replays are instant, how are they 'tarted' up? Keep speculation to yourself.

You've been speculating about the 360 the entire time you've been in this post so maybe you should follow you're own advice.
Show me actual gameplay pictures that look as good as the pic posted?
No replay just actual being played real time there and then. Racing games make the replays look better and GT5 is no different. Or do you think Photomode only takes a snapshot?

You avoided what I said. As soon as a race is finished, the replay is instant. How can extra effects be added in instantly? Plus why do the driving angles look the same? Unless it's some kind of conspiricy with one replay showing the driving angles as being the same as ingame graphics, and another pimped out video with added effects for the exterior cameras, you're barking up a non-existant tree.

Show me a picture of in-game? Why do you keep avoiding that?
you think added effects need time? Replay's are usually instant.
In Forza 3 the replays are instant and the graphics are obviously better with added motion blur for instance. It doesn't take much to do that on the fly when you don't have to work out where each car is going and the AI of the drivers or the physics of what's happening to each car etc. Everything is pre-dtermined by the race the player just had so resources are freed up.

ME max setting on PC is about ME2 360 quality(but PC has higher res,) besides the perfectly ugly woman who looks like.... shit..... either way though, PC ME2 GFX will rock the shit out of the 360 one, so it's non-sense to even compare the 2, it's like comparing HD consoles to the Wii when you compare PC power to HD consoles. no sense arguing that a Napalm can compare to the Nuclear War Head and consequently to a full fledged Hydro Bomb that uses a Nuke just for a tiny catalyst. Facts are boring, lets just discuss the games?

So it is a conspiracy then? You haven't explained why in the replays the camera angles which you drive from look the same, and yet you are claiming the replay is made better than ingame graphics. Then how come not all angles are improved?
Plus, no surprises, it's kind of difficult finding ingame graphics of a game that hasn't been released.

Conspiracy? Where did that come from?
Bact to the topic it's hard finding ingame that looks as good as the pre-prepared official shots.
I don't get what you mean about the angles for a replay? I'm not talking about where the camera is. I would expect them to be in the same place and the angles to be the same. It's a replay of your actions.
Do you expect a replay to have different driving angles? Wouldn't be a replay it would be a simulation. Of course they are the same I'm talking about the graphics what are you talking about.
Please explain and how it relates to the GT5 pic and i'll answer.

Uncharted 2 still looks better... I'm expecting ME2 to look 2 times better than the first one, but still choke half the time the first one did as a result, and that won't be good (on the 360 at least)....
