Unbelievable slow motion screenshots in Unreal Engine 3

Mass Effect 2 is an Unreal Engine 3 title which offers neat tricks for screenshots. You may for instance use a slow motion cam to enhance the on-screen action. Some of the screenshots made using this technique have an artistic level of quality.

you can make anything look good by putting it into slow motion.

That's not slow motion. That's actual slow down in the game. Damn you framerate.

your just bitter neo used it against you! :)

srsly though. Man that looks sweet!!

Killzone 2 had a slow mo trailer right before its release.
The real game was orgasmic but in the slow mo trailer it was as if i had multiple orgasm every time I pressed replay.

Like in Unreal Tournament 3. There was a setting to have super slow-mo every time you got a kill.

+1 bubble for you. That was funny

question here....how the F. can a picture be in slow motion?!...

I think they mean they have the option to slow down the frame rate of the game, therefor allowing for enhanced graphics despite using the same specs.

Slowing down the framerate does nothing but slow down the number of frames per second turning the game into a slideshow.
What you can do is run it at a high framerate then capture at that same framerate allowing you to play the captured video at a normal framerate. Then you can play at a normal speed which looks like it's in slow motion but still smooth.

... You got me there.
Maybe a panning shot is a better term?
