i know what 'not actual in game footage' means but 'representataion of actual game footage' means what exactly?
all i can think is their trying to confuse you by using slightly strange terminology when actually they mean that what your seeing on tv is a mocked up demo which has had the graphics tarted up a bit and it wont look any where near as good.
| They are showing you the cut scenes. Scenes in between levels where you have no interaction. Not actual gameplay graphics.

I could be wrong, rats will know as he's played it, but I have the distinct impression that Heavenly looks very much like that when you are playing it.

Why doesn't it just say "Actual Game Footage"... surely the "Representative" muddies the meaning a bit?

I assume because if you bought a 360 game, and played it on a crappy non HD TV, you'd have idiots complaining it "didn't look like that on TV".

excellent reply herman.
its like my dad was moaning that the RRP for the transformers game was 'between 29.99 and 49.99'. or something like that.
i said that it was because it was a cross platform release. pc,xbox ect and they're all differnet prices.

Probably because it's not actual game footage but pre-rendered using game elements.

| erm...except for the fact that if they were watching it on their TV (likely) then they wouldn't be watching it in HDTV anyway.
