Just...amazing.

There's such a strong potential for a very deep story. Simply can't wait to hear more.


I totally agree, but from a tech demo perspective, it is just meh.

It is a good video with great emotions and chances for a great storyline, but it is not an outstanding tech demo to me.


Of course not! It's not running on the 360 after all. ¬_¬

could you please stop this bs. Don't try to label me as a 360 fanboy. If this turns out to be a game, I am 100% interessted in it. The tech behind it just does not seem that impressive to me.

How is this NOT impressive? It looks far better than any game we've ever seen on consoles...and the facial animations are just unmatched (PC or console...)

Seriously you need to play more games. Graphics haven't improved at all or maybe only slightly since Heavy Rain judging from that tech demo and that wasn't the best looking game at that time either so there are quite a few better looking ones available.
LA Noire still beats these facial animations by a country mile.

I need to play more games? Look at the games I'm playing, they are some of the best looking games ever made and I have a capable PC to run them at their best and I've played most of the good looking PS3 exclusives...so I definitely don't need to play more games. Click "Play in HD". Seriously, it's an entirely new engine. Name me some games that look better (console games)

I was going to mention LA Noire as an exception, but then I realized eye movements are a part of facial animations.

Not going to bother to write a list. Would take too much time.

If that's really a whole new engine, then they wasted a LOT of time, because graphically it looks like Heavy Rain 1.1 and I'm being generous here. Simply put take the ...10 best looking games of this gen and they already outdo this tech demo. Therefore the only real interesting part on a technical level are indeed the facial animations, that are indeed very good, but overall not better than LA Noire.
To answer CGI's post, LA Noire surely had some graphical problems and the dev team did not put the same kind of work in other areas of animation. Therefore this tech demo basically shows less impressive facial animation mixed with better graphics.
