Explain your answer and submit your own for judgment.

Hmm...  The shadowing makes me lean towards video game.  It's too well defined, too dark.  Ground detail and shadowing seems to be of too high quality to be from a video game though.  I'd expect more obvious bumpmapping or tesselation.  The lack of motion blurring and other post processing techniques could indicate an image made with a high speed camera...  Unless photo modes in modern video games don't apply post processing, which would make sense as well.  A higher resolution image would be helpfull.  Or an elf in the background...

I'm going with video game.

Going to go with real world. That ground detail looks too good for a video game.

That shadow looks like a videogame shadow. I'm going with videogame.

There's nobody in the driver's seat, so I reckon that's a videogame.

Well, it looks like a video game and I can't help but assume this is a trick, so I'm thinking real world.

I think that is clearly a video game. The way the car looks in comparison to the background just seems to me like a polygon model on a world that has a sort of stock background.

Neither. That is a very clever manipulation of a cheese danish.

I've heard of Mwarv before. It makes me think of a photographer, so real?

The car looks a bit like a render, but the rock textures and background look real. So I'm going to go Mwarv being a hyperealist rally photographer.

It's real. Arch and Te Rojo got it right.

Another trick. It's actually a drawing.

Uh, I also got it right.

This one is a little harder, but I'm going to go with another form of hyper-realism: virtual reality, rather than reality.

Don't you mean AR?  If it's AR the only 'real' elements would be the floor, background and sky, but those look fake as hell too.

It’s both. Real images used to make a video game.
