Love the Heavy Rain demo, not impressed with graphics

I regret that I said "I agree" with Naz though. Heavy Rain looks far better than almost anything out there, on PS3 or elsewhere.

I mainly wanted to point out that the graphics during the hype machine have been overrated, and the humans in Heavy Rain are still far from the 'uncanny valley'.

It's still a fantastic looking game, at least graphically.

As a person who studies 'The Uncanny Valley" likes there's no tomorrow, that's what I think games should be striving for, to avoid 'The Valley' altogether.

True. But since movies have been there already (that Final Fantasy movie, Beowulf, and there's others), some game makers will be tempted to go there too as soon as we got the GPU horsepower.

That original trailer with that angry chick. I dunno if my memory serves me wrong, but I thought that was quite close to uncanny valley, depending on how zoomed in on her the camera was.
