Heavy Rain: The Freak Out

I remember the first time I saw the Heavy Rain: The Casting (tech demo) back in 2006. How I thought it was frickin’ amazing from a visual point of view and an animation point of view. Her teeth were a little freaky but so were Aki Ross's but it just looked so damned good.


Well, I just watched it again after 2 years of progress in the game engine business and I was shocked at how terrible it looks. All those glowy, blurry filters over the top... her freakin’ teeth! ...and those dead eyes. *shudder*


It's amazing how fast our expectations move, especially when it comes to technology.
