Lost Odysee Screens

These are from the FMV CGI trailer.
Hope we'll see some actual gameplay at TGS.

It's listed as playable by Famitsu. So you'll definitely see some gameplay.
Do you have a link stating these are not in-game graphics?
The close up looks like it could be realtime to me. CGI wouldn't show polygonal edges (the guy's ear, shoulder and hair).
Eh? If you've seen the trailer you'd need no link.
Actually these are real time.

Definitely realtime - you can see the poor ground textures and aliasing.
Overall Looking great.

CGi can show polygonal edges though.
I agree though, the close up face pic doesn't show in any of the trailers shown thuis far, at least I couldn't spot it, and could be from an in-engine cut-scene.
The proof is in the pudding, or in this case in the hair motion, which can't be seen in that pic.
The battleground pic on the other hand is direct from the trailers, and is clearly fmv cgi.
Edit: Ok , I admit I could've been wrong. The bigger pic does look like it's realtime after all. Don't neg rep me!!!
The setting of that pic is very much the same as in the cgi trailer i remembered, but without the extra cgi effects like smoke and über lighting and animation, that's what made me automatically assume it's a shot from that trailer.
So, I agree, these indeed positively could be realtime in-engine shots . For some reason, this reminds me of 99 Nights. Maybe it's just the battlescene with a number of enemies and one fighting against them.

Just watch the footage that somebody linked above. It's real-time.
Those are realtime my friend. It looks beautiful, nay, STUNNING. I want to see some different environments as well before comparing it to the competition.
I already admitted I was wrong.
Or do you mean the whole footage of LO at pre TGS conference was realtime? (in which case I'd have to disagree).
Yes, there is a clear transition from fmv cgi to gameplay. It's a bit odd looking when suddenly all the enemies stop at their places and freeze like statues, switching to turn-based combat with only attacking at a time, only the protagonist and one enemy in motion. While the fmv cgi looks exciting, the ingame battles look boring in this video.
The combat, at least in this video, looks very simple and not very exciting. It's likely though this scene is from early in the game, maybe even some sort of tutorial scene.

Just watched the youtube footage...wow.
This was before your second edit. Plus, you have used the conjunctive "could've". Just wanted to clear things up... Nothing more
Yea, sorry.
The "could've" was before seeing the latest video.
Now it's "I'm very positive those shots are realtime"
I like the art of this game, not surprising really considering.
The darker, almost "LOTR:ROTK" mood appeals to me and is a welcome change to jrpg's.
But I don't like the face of the main character, either it's delibrately odd looking and ugly as butt... (not exactly asian or western, nor alien or typically "Square pretty androgyne boy") or just plain modelled badly
(and butts aren't really ugly).
