I have never been so impressed with anything related to 3d since I started following the development with povray years ago. Download the video please, now Arnold Schwarzenegger can grow old and fat and he can still play in Terminator 4

That's great for the movies and faking compromising pictures of your enemies ( ) but how will this affect my gaming experiance?

MIT Technology Review a few months back featured an interesting article regarding Microsoft's research lab in Beijing. The algorithms being developed there are very impressive; so much so that the rendered model and the sample shots of the subject were nearly indiscernible.

That's really weird because other than Diane Piepol or Jarrell Pair no one else on that list worked on the project in November of 2001. Unless they started the project back up again and those people are working on it now, the list is a bit off.

But if you look at the pictures, I'm the guy to the right of the butterfly. I also edited the video on the main page.

That is... phenomenal. :Q
