    If you haven't, you really should. Personally, I was really impressed when they proved that it was a real-time render rather than pre-rendered footage. Sure, the PC used was absurdly powerful and probably costs at least 10000 dollars and it's so complex that it will be a while yet until games start looking like this, but it's interesting to see where stuff is heading.

    And dat hair.

    Oh my god that was freaking awesome. That blew my mind when he manually adjusted the lighting and moved around the woman's figure in real time. I was like holy shiiiit the whole time. I'm excited for those kind of graphics becoming available to mere mortals like us in the future.

    This is amazing. It almost looks better than real life, to be honest.
