Heavy Rain - New trailer

[Inazuma]

Quantic Dream, makers of Indigo Prophecy and the upcoming Heavy Rain, made a really bold claim a few weeks ago; they said that their game had crossed the uncanny valley—that place in human graphics that sits jarringly, stomach-churningly between not quite fake enough and not quite real enough.

I think they crossed it

Without meaning to sound like a snob, the clip doesn't impress me much.

I can't think off the top of my head where I've seen better, SiD.

tech demo's bore me. They build up misleading hype.

What I mean to say is that it won't impress me until I see it outside of a tech demo

Sure, you've got the moves but have you got the touch?

To be fair though Fahrenheit was ace and that at the time had behind the times graphics. So Im not too bothered what the game looks like as long as it builds on their previous success.

Agreed, though they seem to be banging the 'zomg uncanny valley' drum rather than actually promoting the game.

whilst the eye movement and facial expressions were really well done and actually pretty realistic, you could still quite clearly tell that it was cgi. Still really impressive though, just not as good as they claim
