You can't quite do pure vectoring in Photoshop. What they do is called vexeling. Using pixels to achieve the vector look. The pictures in the magazines were done with something like Illustrator.

Vectoring in Photoshop is a pain in the ass. You end up having hundreds of layers and it's just all a big mess.
