I know some people have already seen this, but I'm sure there's a lot who haven't.

Honestly I hope games will never look like that. Realism is so boring, and I dunno about you guys but I play games to get away from reality. If I wanna look at something real I'll leave my room. Which I know is a scary thought for some of you people.

I agree, when graphics are so good they're actually almost life-like it kinda defeats the point of playing the video games... mm that didn't really make sense, it's hard to explain.

Just because life like animations are possible doesn't mean all developers would have to use them. Like other had stated, a Star Wars game with these animations would be awesome.

Wow, the fact that I had to actually study her closely to pick out the eyes and a few other small hiccups says a lot about this technology. Do we really want to Mario and Luigi like this, or Link? Samus? Go for it XD

I've seen that video and every single time i'm slightly repulsed by it. The Uncanny Valley effect takes over and it ends up looking disturbing IMO.

the article said they are hoping to pretty much blend the line between reality and cgi by 2020. Games won't see that for a while i don't think, games need to catch up with pixar first, so you're probably right by 2 gens away, that will be around the 2020 mark.

When you start getting graphics to the point where they look like real life you start to get rid of some of the room for more artistic approaches to graphics. Not to mention it will be extremely unsettling to have those kinds of graphics in a shooter.

that is true, it will be more disturbing, but like current games you would hope people will be able to detach themselves from whats actually happening in the game, and realise the fact they are playing just a game. a realistic GTA or manhunt will be pretty **** up if it takes on these graphics though.

But at that point you're actually shooting a real human being. Or atleast an NPC based off of a real human being. That is just disturbing beyond belief. Oh and the artistic thing is still valid.

I think shes still in the uncanny valley, looks awkward when you look at her eyes and such, I'd prefere going a little less and making it look good then having to stare it and feel awkward. Yes it looks amazing, but its still at the point where you can tell its fake if you pay attention.

I dunno... those DX11 pics were pretty amazing too.

Yeah... exactly. Look at the different ways film stock is used and manipulated to create a grainy or colored or specific look in a movie. I think it's a great advancement... and this combined with some of those DX 11 shots... i can't wait.

Not even openGL 2.1 can produce somethig of that quality and that's still bleeding edge and has yet to be implemented in PC games.

It's impressive but not impressive at the same time.

From a rendering viewpoint it is highly advanced and way beyond today, but if it was a game it would be a cut scene with a pre recorded actor. What's impressive is maintaining a certain quality and realism level during game play.

Nah, I don't want to see that. The purpose of gaming is escapism. Seeing realisticly-rendered people would be off-putting. It'd feel too close to the actual thing for chainsawing to be fun. I think she also fits into the uncanny valley pretty well too. Something....off about her.

LOL..... when will people understand that emulating reality is also art. And second, i have been ripped a new one with this on previous posts, but it would be awesome to have a FPS that looks like the real thing, instead of it kinda looking like the real thing.

Third. Even the first time i saw her i i figured she wasnt real becuase of the mevement of her eyes and lips (maybe i just noticed that because im a med student a i pay attetion to such details in a human).

You should probably take the time to actually read my criticism instead of pretending I implied something I clearly didn't. I did not say that realism isn't an art style. I said that this technology is limiting the use and development of other art styles itself. Realism runs counter to all the other art styles. When future technology is dedicated solely to providing something so life like, you will have degraded quality in other art styles. And as far as FPS looking like the real thing, that is just really sickening to thinka bout it .You can talk about catharsis all you want, but that is just wrong.

That was great. She looked a bit stiff around the lips and cheeks though. Anyway, I remember making a topic about how games looking too real could give off a dull feel. Emily looked real but that was kind of as boring as watching an interview on tv.[QUOTE="Lto_thaG"] Good point. I could definitely play a photorealistic Star Wars game. Or LOTR.[QUOTE="mitu123"][QUOTE="masiisam"]

Id hit it....

Ohh wait...

Exactly, it's amazing how real she looked.

Hehe good one.

Not to mention the poilitcal **** storm and any violent game with those kinds of graphics would cause.

The consoles will utilize whatever hardware the PC is using in late 2009/early 2010, so it is obvious that those animations would be impossible to render on gaming hardware. Those are probably done with Pixar-like render farms.

call me crazy but the more a game looks "real" the more boring it is and less interested im going to be to play it. It just wouldnt be a video game.
