Actually simulating shallow depth of field in software is computationally very expensive. Combine the infinite DOF with low detail in distant models and you get the effect we're seeing. Some games cheat by adding a lot of fog which has a blending effect but I'd rather have the great visibility shown in these pics than flying in pea soup with limited vis.
