*cough* Bullshot *cough*

That's the game. On peoples TVs... Which you can see in the picture...

The last guy has a Panasonic.

No bullshot.

Deepblue, those latest shots look vibrant and beautiful.  However, there is something dead wrong about them.  The cars and tracks look like they're made of plastic.  When I look down the street, I never ever see plastic cars being driven.  I am fairly certain that the ground underneath the tires of my car should be made of tarmac instead of plastic.  That's pretty much my biggest beef with PGR3.  So much work was put into eye candy, where it could have been spent elsewhere.  The graphics of PGR3 are pretty, but it has so much eyecandy that it makes it look fake.

Diminishing returns, my friend, diminishing returns...

Also I don't believe for a second that those shots are from a camera focused on a TV.  The shots are WAY too perfect.

Look at the last shot. All these pics are from members of the GAF.

And look at real shots of the same cars... They DO look like plastic.

Desaturate the images a bit and whala!

Virtually all the x360 games overuse specular, so they look plastic.  I'm not sure why, exactly.  Because they can, I guess.  IIRc FIFA 2006 is probably the worst culprit; it looks utterly horrible, with zombie like players, a pointless motion blur effect and 6 inch long grass blades drawn for no point beyond that they can be.

Well, it's more likely than Franny Jeffers....
