They are game screenshots..very heavily edited screenshots but screenshots none the less.

Some look like they came right from the cinematic trailer that is on the site.

Whatever they are they certainly can't be the finished product. I would imagine they are some kind of rough pre-production stuff to wet our appetites!

I guess that's the biggest compliment you could have given the SHIV crew, because I really think that those are close to what we'll see when it's out.

I sure hope so, that's for sure.

Yes it's very safe to say the game will not look like that. I'm sure it will look better than SH3, but not like that.

You know what I can't figure out? Screenshots for SH IV, III and II all seem to feature battleships at least as much as subs. I could never figure out why this is... Particularly for the U-Boat games, battleships played almost no role in the submarine war. I forget if it was SHII or III where all of the pre-release screenshots seemed to feature the Bismark for some reason... Why?

I guess battleships make for cool-looking screenshots though...

I do believe those are edited in-game screenshots.

And why not? The picture quality of the 'average' first person shooter can nowadays almost pass for movie quality (think Ghost Recon 4 and the awesome F.E.A.R. for example) so why shouldn't a subsim be any different? I believe that if your hardware can pull the wagon we're going to be darn close to those screens.
