I disagree. Most of what you've seen is not run on anything close to the final HW/SW. The way the gaming business works is that you optimize AT THE END. The end has JUST arrived in the last two weeks. You take a game running jaggy, nasty, dark, and choppy at 12 FPS and boost it too way smooth at 30 FPS.
