@welshy023:
Rockstar screwed up when rendering most of the video. It uses a form of deinterlacing called line doubling, making the vertical resolution half as detailed as it should look. If you'll look at 46 seconds in, where the narrator says "die in that unforgiving sun" (horses cross from right to left) the resolution is a proper 720p like the screenshots, instead of the crappy looking deinterlaced mess that the rest of the trailer is. The final game will look like the screens. Do not worry.

Examine the middle frame in the following picture of stills from the trailer. It is smooth with few jaggies, unlike the rest of the trailer. Make sure you view it in full resolution instead of the scaled down res this site uses when left clicking.
