First screen shot of Metroid Prime 3?

One of our readers sent this blurry photo of Metroid Prime 3 for the Revolution. Of course take this with a grain of salt, but it could be an early shot of Metroid Prime 3. Any Photoshop experts want to clue us in if this is real or not?

.::: Fake. The arm-cannon design is the same as seen a few years back during the first beta-screenshots of the first Metroid Prime.

Lack of extra HUD information beyond the icons displayed is also dubious. Especially the Beam-icons. (Unless there's a switch back to the complementary beam system of yore, but Retro isn't very keen on it anyway.)

First off, this screen doesn't tell us anything -- so who cares if it's real? But, there is one differenc in the screen -- the HUD has changed, ever so slightly. But, who knows...and who cares?
