@bdrtfm: All good dude. I agree that when directors use props, the scenes look more believable. CG artists are doing amazing work these days, but I think that's the problem. Especially with humanoid characters, were used to seeing and understanding how movements should look, then we see some perfectly animated, but exaggerated sequence, and this makes it look obviously fake. It's getting better though. I just watched Guardians of the Galaxy 2. There is a scene early on with Kurt Russell in his twenties. It's pretty amazing how convincing his CGI face is. Anyway, good luck with your shop, sounds like a cool place.

@Eddie619: Somebody forgot to play it, this is to buy some time.

@bdrtfm: it's all good man, I wasn't trying to be mean or rude. I was speaking about the Netflix made film as well--it has received tons of coverage, on this site, as well as, many others. I also did not question your knowledge of CG, I merely mentioned that is how the face was animated for the film. I'm sorry if I offended you, but the way the comment was written ("it shows how well he does with a getup"), would lead most to assume you were saying he was in a suit. Nothing personal.

@bdrtfm: I don't know if this is sarcasm or not? Death Note definitely isn't little know, it's a brand new Netflix project, based on a very popular anime, based on a very popular manga that was given tons of coverage. Also, Dafoe wasn't in a suit--it's two people controlling a nine foot tall costume. I think they used some of his facial captures from the voice over work in the facial CG.

@meedokicky: I was thinking the same thing. Always heard great things but never got around to buying it.

@sleepnsurf: I got it on PS4

@videogameninja: it's going to be crazy hard to top Zelda, but there are definitely some 10/10's in the Mario franchise (Mario3, Mario64, Galaxy 2), so I agree, if anyone has a shot it's Mario. I just gotta hurry up and get the Switch so I can play it. I played Zelda on the Wii U.

I'm actually excited to get Hydro Thunder. When I was 16, I worked at Chick-fil-A in the mall, and we still had one of the few arcades around. I had a friend that worked there, and he would put games on free play for me. The version they had in the arcade had huge speakers in the seats, and you could feel the waves when you were bouncing around. It was a lot of fun. This should be at least good for nostalgic value.

@videogameninja: lol, I like this ninja. Most try to poison me, and overthrow my reign, but this one...wait, doh..blow dart in the neck. Nevermind.
