Nothing could look that good...

It has to be either fake, or some kind of technological miracle.

Basic renders always look that good. The thing is, it's much harder to run it in action. It takes a lot of skill to make images of that quality with few enough polygons so a console could feasibly run it.

Those shots have been floating around for some time now. They could possibly be real renders running from the new hardware, who knows? But I did read that an NVIDIA spokesman said the PlayStation 3's graphics card will be at least 50 times more powerful than the PS2.

Yeah, and they also say that PS3's processor will be 1,000 times (or is it 100? Wait...I think the processor is actually supposedly made up of 1,000 different smaller processors) more powerful than PS2. I'll beleive it when I see it in action.

I say it's BS. New consoles are almost always super duper awesome, conceptually, but then turn out not as good as they were hyped up to be.

...Those are just conceptual images, drawn by an artist, of what they think the next gen can handle. The next gen can get pretty close to that, but those are just concepts.
