HL2 has some pretty amazingly convincing faces, and that's obviously not because it has the best rendering engine.
- sliverstorm 15y agoI wouldn't go as far as "amazingly convincing". I think they look better after you've been staring at the HL2 world for a while, rather than the real world.
- starwed 15y agoNah, I had that impression from the very first scene the game loads, which is the creepy guy talking to you. (I don't mean convincing in a "mistake-for-real" way, but in a "lets-me-suspend-disbelief" way.)
