New Heavenly Sword gallery shows Andy Serkis in a funny suit

We love Andy Serkis for everything he's done for Heavenly Sword. Helping turn a game into a cinematic masterpiece. We've loved him for years though, ever since his role in Lord of the Rings. In fact, we're no strangers to seeing Serkis in a mo-cap suit, seeing as we watched the extras on the LOTR DVDs several times.

Our new gallery, found below, includes some fresh Serkis mo-cap pictures and some interesting King Bohan images. They are particularly fascinating to those interested in the specifics of 3D graphics generation. Low-polygon wireframes of King Bohan are found alongside high detailed mudbox renders. Fascinating!

This is the first game I've seen where 3d actors' eyes are done correctly, the way eyes will aim differently-- this has been so hard for people to get right that even on that hi-res rendering of the first movie of animatrix, people's eyes were SO off... from seeing the demo, it looks like in game, the eyes are correct. This is no small feat, but they ARE using more efficient algorithms than other people have, in the past.
