Gran Turismo HD screenshots vs. real life

by Peter Vrabel { May 7th 2007 at 4:30PM }

If you've ever wondered when videogame images would begin to mirror real life, wonder no more. A contributor at VGchartz provides the screenies, in a side-by-side comparison for easy viewing. The team at Polyphony Digital is meticulous. Proof of their devoted work ethic is (as they say) in the pudding.

Don't forget, as we reported last week, Sony recently updated the PlayStation Store with more tasty videos of this hotly anticipated title. So drop by and get some more of these delicious treats. Just be sure to have a sponge nearby to soak up the drool. And for those few PS3 owners without convenient wireless access, don't fret. We've got your Gran Turismo HD information covered.

When it comes to PS3 screenshots of teh game, how come the wheels ain't spinnin'??? even though, the background looks blurry, as if the car is in actual race...am i missing something???

its weird that the GT version sometimes looks /more/ real then the real version.

trippy.

@2
thanx man...
i ain't saying that the game looks bad or anything...damn, i played it, not even on HD tv and it still kicked ass.
However, i might suspect that the PS3 images had been photoshoped...though i wish that i'm wrong about it.

Just wait until each car runs into a wall or shunts another car you will soon see which one is real, thats the problem...

When you take a screen cap of a 3D game not using "tricks" and filters to add blur you will see the full detail of the frame, including spokes on tires. When you take a photo of a real life object, the blur happens because of the exposure time of the film. If you shot the race cars in real life with a high speed camera, you'd see the spokes too.

Best looking PS3 game so far is the GT demo. Wow. Yay!

PS3 20GB owner.

Although, I didn't get a wireless card, I have a 4 port wireless bridge. So all my networked devices, ala Tivo and PS3 can go WiFi.

Plus the wireless bridge synchs up to my router at 108Mbps. That's faster than the built in 54G card.

Frank? how is that remotely relevant?

WOW. I actually couldn't tell which one was the real one until I saw the grass and the blur on the darker shots, which of course turned out to be the PS3.

Once we get more storage capacity, who knows, they'll make the car, the road, the grass, and even the people look real =D

>but thats because sony decided to not include a HD cable with my $600 purchase so I had to run in 480i...

so... let me get this straight... you decided to fork out 600 dollars, but refused to pay 20 dollars more for a HDMI cable so you're playing it on graphics LESS than what Wii's capable of?

Just want to make sure I'm seeing this right.
