They never fail to impress, their dedication to making all of their games so nearly perfect (in character/mob design) baffles the shit out of me. Props to them, glad I preordered the collectors a month ago.

Japanese Developers know that by creating living characters , makes the experience much better, as aside to what most Western developers do is that they create a good looking scenary

to me creating good character has a much much better effect than good looking scenary and crappy character behaviours

Then you have PD who create amazing cars but crappy scenery! lol j/k

LOOKS FANTASTIC!

Wow, look at the detail on the ZBrush models! I wish I had those skills! The animation is also fantastic, you can tell that they did their research on how real animals move, especially on that bird/chicken monster, it really has a sense of weight.
