I feel like Activision is a bit behind the next gen curve here. This R&D stuff is cool, but what's it actually for? How much cross-talk do they actually see between studios internally, anyway? Even Square Enix seemed more on top of their game at Sony's press conference. And they showed us a video that was over a year old. What did Activision do? They announced Diablo 3. A low spec, old PC game. And now they're on face demos. I guess they needed to show us something, just to remind us that they're aware of the upcoming platforms.

Good point, they do seem to be in a tough position and, I don't know, I haven't really been paying attention to COD as of late, but didn't they pretty much lose a ton of the talent at Infinity Ward? EA with Battlefield and Frostbite seems to be in a pretty good position.

Yes, i'm agree about EA and DICE (Frostbite).

Good to see activision are spending their time wisely on floating heads that are in no way going to make it into video games outside of CGi cutscenes. The woman looks very realistic though, but really, what's the point?

If only 50% of that tech makes it into next gen games that would be great.

If the game centres around a single floating head, i'm sure you'll get your wish.

Don't be stupid you know what i mean, just like the heavy rain devs that showed a floating head, i expect some of that tech to be used in there next game too.

The heavy rain floating head was no where NEAR this good looking. This is practically photorealistic. It's no doubt using a ridiculous amount of computational power just to render a single head (presumably in real time) add more then 1 character on screen, with AI routines, a detailed environment, animations, action, set pieces, particle effects, etc etc, no, not happening. The head shown by quantic dream wasn't a far cry from what is being shown in beyond. This, this is a whole different thing. Even the faces in the new BF4 footage look no where near this level.

So as i said, unless the game centres around a single floating head in an empty environment, don't expect something even close to this next gen.

"This demo is running at 180 fps on current gtx 680 cards."

Something less detailed might make it to next-gen games for sure. But at that level, no chance.
