No, all the shots you've seen on various sites are real in-game shots.  The
game runs in 4 different resolutions - 640x480, 800x600, 1024x768 and
1280x1024.  The E3 stuff was all 1024x768.  I'm not sure what the other
online sites & magazines have used, though.  We've given them press preview
builds & they take their own shots on whatever hardware they have.  Then, of
course, they dither them down to GIF's or JPEG's.
