I would say these certainly could be done real time with next gen hardware, the camera angles limit the draw depth in the street shots for one limiting the geometry seen at any one time, plus if you added a little fogging (make that smogging) you can reduce draw in effect as you move through the area, instead of abrubt draw in you can see things emerge low res gradually through haze until they're sporting full texture right next to them. Not to mention point of view depth of field being used. It certainly doesn't have the feel of the vast world that i saw in the Unreal3 demo. I guess it all depends on what sort of ambiance you want, character driven or environment driven.

If that's realtime I'm going to buy a hat and eat it. Seriously.
I mean, there's an insane amount of reflections on some of those screenshots, and at the same time the polycount seems completely insane.
Huge polycount + realtime reflections = crazy insane amount of geometry.
Not to mention that the lighting and shadowing feels like it's radiosity - sure, you can bake radiosity into textures or shadowmaps with ease but that only looks good on static geometry and I certainly hope that those cars can move around!
So I'm voting for pre-rendered concept shots.

holy shit that looks like a real car. i dont see any pc game coming close to these visuals in the near future. this is miles ahead of unreal engine 3.

too bad that all of the good looking screens are just CGI renders. oh well.
Thoses pics screams project test renders.
You need visuals we you're looking for raising funds and/or when you're seeking a publishing deal.
Some of the models are definitely realtime compliant, if I may say, but I really doubt thoses pics are from the game engine renderer (SSAA or not).

I don't think such a level of graphics is attainable throughout the entire game, without a large production budget.
Meaning?
It's actually a Holden Monaro... and really a long way off of being even remotely close to a stylish BMW coupe... *shakes head*

It looks that much better than GT4!!!
I could see this Vegas game looking like that in real time. Just check out my comparision of past games and notice the level of advancement from the PS1 to PS2 to maybe the PS3.
Comparison of these cars from GT2 to GT4 to Las Vegas game.

You can kinda realize how good GT4 is graphically. Yet this Vegas game is going to set a marker higher than what we have ever seen.

Because those Vegas screenshot that I posted look like a photo mode shot. The angle of the cars gives it a good comparision.
