Obviously it depends on what game it is but the shots are then scaled down in an image editor. edit: and of course "playable" is open to interpretation when some people don't mind sub 30 frames

Lol. There was nothing in the Watch Dogs demo that was particularly flooring, visually. Why are you so pessimistic exactly?
Well there you go! He wouldn't flat out LIE... right?

No idea.
I thought about making a thread about the pre-release hype vs. actuality of new console releases. I decided against it because it wouldn't change anyones mind.
Going from past history despite what people say how this time is different:
1) Launches always suck. See the rest of the reasons.
2) A good portion of launch & 1st year games will be significantly delayed
3) There is a good chance what you think is a live demo is CGI
4) If it is not CGI, there is a good chance it was prerecorded and fixed up.
5) If it is not CGI or prerecorded, there is a good chance it was running on "representative hardware" and will have to be downgraded before release.
6) There is a good chance that developers and PR people are twisting the truth as much as possible without outright lying about "live" demos.
Launches suck and historically every single time lead to disappointment. The best games get delayed, leaving only the worst in the launch window.
But feel free to post how this time its going to be different because someone you trust in the industry said this time its real.
Edit. Optimistically, the PS4 being a PC probably means it won't be as bad as the disastrous first 2 years of the PS3.

Guerrilla were the first ones to admit that they had no clue about Killzone 2 CGI trailer. Don't think they'll lie and their track record shows it.

this is whats wrong. uninformed posters who don't bother to read through the xxenth threads and saying shit like its bullshots.
on the one hand in threads, these games aren't impressive. Then concurrently they cannot be that impressive.

Aren't they doing a live demo of Killzone:SF on Jimmy Fallon tonight?
That part is scripted.
