Wow.
Pathos: Greek for "suffering" or "experience"; pathetic. Nicely describes my tragic gaming exploits.

Project KARA - Quantum Dream
"Kara, a disturbing short film about a self-aware robot, was
made by games studio Quantic Dream to demonstrate the "expressive power"
of the PS3's graphics. In order to sidestep the limitations of
animating human characters (the so-called, contentious "uncanny valley"),
the creators made a story about a newborn, intelligent robot -- a
character that is supposed to be subtly unconvincing in its humanity." (BoingBoing.net)
Wow.
Wow.

DeleteA game with such animations would be mind blowing!!!! I hope to see such a game made for PS3!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the comment, Anon!
DeleteYeah, I would love to see that too, but I can only imagine what you'd have to pay to get a system that could run that for actual gameplay (rather than just fancy cut scenes).
