Hmm. A month ago, I was laughing out loud when Quantic Dream announced that, even though their “Casting” trailer from a couple years back was still imperfect, they had since then made so much progress that they had actually conquered the Uncanny Valley — the zone where virtual characters are rendered so photorealistically that you brain only sees what’s wrong and just rejects the image.

Today, the first new images coming out of the studio are more than limited — two close-ups on a character’s eyes — but I’m intrigued; they do look good. What if they’d actually pulled it off?
