Don't know if people have heard of this. A new game in development for PS3 called heavy rain
trying to re invent the adventure game genre and break new ground in realism particularly in the real time human characters. It looks pretty impressive but this was the E3
tech demo, a girl going for a casting session, Its ok but theres something seriously wrong with the lips, not what I would have thought was supposed to be a "holy crap thats so real" type of moment. what do you guys think?

That was rad!, is that in game if so then it is even more rad. I agree about the facial animation it needs some work, but hey it was a tech demo.

Yeah, I read an article in edge magazine
(I recommend it, its an industry focused mag from the UK), apparently it uses the six axis controller to control things like opening a rubbish bin for clues making it completely analogue rather than hitting a button and watching an animation. its a long way off I guess but its amazing where things are going for realtime graphics. Scary and inspiring at once.

Very impressive. The lips sinc problem may be due to the fact that the game is made by a French studio, perhaps the dialog is supposed to be in French. It's a shame it's not gonna come out on the PC, I like a good adventure game. Oh, and I moved this topic and the fallout one to the gaming section.

The Source engine doesn't have lipsync problems with multiple languages, you would think they would do something like that.

*matt remembers that it has been mocapped and that probably explains it.* (slap forehead moment)

I don't know, it looks pretty damn close , not dubbed french, if it was, there'd be a french version out there on youtube. Its interesting stuff though, looking at the future of games. Its moving along very quickly. I'm kind of more keen on the tech that the actual games unfortunately. I buy games and they go unplayed while I read about new ones and the way the future will pan out. I don't think its far off that we will be playing characters like this one in multiplayer online games, making games like oblivion really synonymous with actual oblivion... not that WOW hasnt destroyed a few relationships in its wake.
