It's already possible. It's just too expensive. So they found a shortcut. Big deal. Sounds like every other pretty game out there.

Really? Most "pretty games" aren't even in the same league as Uncharted 2 when referencing animations, which is what their point was.

They raised the bar with procedural shortcuts.  That's awesome.  But it can definitely be reproduced with animation alone.  It would just take tons of time and money and patience and probably cost too much money to be worth it.  Procedural generation and animation is the future.  Believe.
