If you aren't cheating you aren't competing, or something like that.
I think Israel is the only country to actually care about truth in imagry. http://www.ibtimes.com/supermodels-without-photoshop-israels-photoshop-law-puts-focus-digitally-altered-images-photos

IMO games look like crap alot of times when they are shown as just a clip. Seeing it in motion, is the only way to judge how its gonna look. So if they have to spruce it up a little to make the screenshot presentable, I'm ok with that. It's when you showcase one version of a game and are given something completely different at retail. Like what happened with, Colonial Marines. That stuff is inexcusable.
adding extra stuff is silly but I don't think it's that bad for touching up screenshots, either they do that or they go back to the game and take better screenshots that doesn't show the clippings.
Amped, for the original Xbox.

This is some next gen trolling and the bad kind no jifs i expected better.
If fanboys go even further they are approaching alien conspiracy level of trolling.

Exactly the same frame from the game? Lol, nah.
That lens flare straight out of photoshop :lol:

Hm...
Doesnt this happen with a lot of Games? The Division shots even had Adobe CS6 in their exif-data.

They put the default Photoshop lensflare effect on the screenshot AFAIR. It was a huge thing back then but nowadays nobody would care. Lensflares were a next gen thing back then, now we have 500 gazillion lensflares in Star Trek Into Darkness.

I don't know why some people here want to make a console-war thing out of this, can't we just agree that this is a shitty practice no matter on which system a game is? This is just a very good example because we have a before/after comparison...
So some have forgot
It's Amped for the 360

I would totally day 1 Ryse if it looked like that.

In my defense, I never bought an OG Xbox and this wouldn't have swayed me either way...

Seriously a game looking like that would be fantastic
Nope, insomnia keeps me awake at night, well actually I can get to sleep ok but I cannot get back to sleep if I wake up. 3 more hours until work.

I thought there would be a more stark contrast in things if a thread about it made but this just seems petty.

i like his nose.
why dont we have more characters with such a nose?
This is perfect.
That one is awesome too, makes me want to know what the hell the story is. Twins reunited, alien genetic cloning, I need to know!
Its hard to judge with this quality of shading really.
What is more strange are some outlines around end of this stripe that looks like reflected part from upper armor. But why fix that stripe and two other minor things in image, zoom it in and do not change other clipping bugs?
It's clearly photoshoped. And the most funny thing is that the "original" screenshot is photoshoped too. They "fix" the most visible clipping in the "original" shot and then work again with photoshop to clean more clipping in the second one (in fact, third one).
Those clipping artifacts are very difficult to fix in retail game because is a combination of model and motion capture. If dev change mocap keys to avoid clipping, final animation could be "wrong". If they change armor mesh, could be visually wrong too.

I guess they gave up on the leather straps.
must have been an sunny day then clouds were offline.
Definitely photoshopped. You can see the mono tone grey paint over pretty clearly.
Not a big deal though, guessing it'll be sorted before the final game is released anyway.

Dayum... and I thought the dude's armour was just damaged in that first pic.
I can't understand why people are attacking the OP, he / she noticed something and made a thread.
Whether you think it is something of merit or deserving of attention is one thing, attacking somebody for making a thread is another.
The salty butt hurt being displayed on both sides of the divide is ridiculous.

News are not the existence of a Ryse bullshot using photoshop. News are how incredibly bad they are using photoshop. I can do better with eyes closed.

Bull shots are pretty bad. They're just lies.
On the other hand, it's not like this game needs bull shots. Hell, in motion in looks phenomenal (isn't it pretty much running Cryengine 3.5 on high with some very high effects thrown in?). But, still poor form on the picture.
(Does anyone else think the lighting looks slightly better in the unshopped pic? Just me?)

I retract this post. I was looking at the images on my iphone this morning and the photoshopped one appeared to be MUCH better. Now that I'm viewing it on a monitor I prefer the original "untouched" image.
