Omg :| By the time the PS4 and Xbox 3 come out - there may be no line left o.O
The image from Madden is clearly a still from an inline movie in the game. That's a WHOLE different thing then inline graphics from games! Such an image as inline game graphics will not be possible for years and years to come. Note that computer generated movies which that quality (raycasting, shadows, skins, hair, grass, etc...) still need half supercomputers and weeks to render a single second of movie....

This goes the same for the image from Need for Speed. Although that (render/reality) quality is much lower then the one from Madden, it also might as well be a still from an inline movie instead of actual game play...

If you REALLY want to see next generation graphics, check out the next Elder Scrolls game here (those are all in game screenshots too)

Although, every time I finish playing HL2, I'm not sure where I am cause everything looks so real in the game :S

Well HL2 is good, but not "Is that real or not? :|" good. And those Elder Scrolls graphics aren't the greatest either.

O_O

Well, you must be on crack or something then, cause I'm blown away by both of them :P

Meh, I guess we'll just have to wait until the Xbox 3... or Xbox 50! If Microsoft's even still around then... o.O

Blade, they are concept pictures of VIDEO, not inline game play like everybody think they are. There is a massive big difference!

For video pictures it is not all that "wow", "crazy stuff", etc... And for inline gameplay, those things will not be available till PS87 or Xbox63.

No no no - they are concept images for in-game play. They are not taken from the game in any way.

You can read up about it on sites like IGN.

I heard a while ago that it would require 3D holographic images to make grapics as good as real life, however they are getting close, I do hope the final games turn out like that.
