The movement of the lips is still too awkward and stiff. It hardly moves enough for how the words sound. It’s like the characters have a pronounced lip paralysis.

I might be putting on the nostalgia glasses, but I didn’t think it was an issue with Heavy Rain. But that was almost 3 years ago, maybe I’ve been spoiled by more recent games when it comes to lip-synching. In any case, the standard has gone up and what we’ve seen in this new trailer, in regards to lip-synching, isn’t acceptable any longer.

I think we all watched a different trailer. Besides, have you not seen all of the other footage? Lip-sync wasn't, and isn't, a problem.


I've watched a few trailers and I get that feeling from all of them. Maybe it's LA Noire's fault, I don't know. I haven't even played that game but the videos of its lip-synching are incredible.

I was simply expecting more/better. Especially since David Cage commented that LA Noire's tech was only one way of achieving that effect and that Quantic Dream would go about it differently in order to have a harmonious balance of lip-synching and body motion.
