The Tech Behind Injustice 2's Facial Animations Is Impressive

Injustice 2 has one of the best facial animations in a video game currently, and that’s saying something since it’s only a fighting game. Recently, the folks at CNET managed to get some behind-the scenes look at how the team at NeatherRealm Studios did the facial animations, and boy is it using some impressive tech.

If only EA outsource their animation to NetherRealm Studios for ME:A

PhoenixUp2453d ago

Share some of this tech with the devs of Marvel vs Capcom: Infinite. Some of the faces in that game seem very off

fastNslowww2453d ago

So its better than the facial animation tech used in L.A Noir?

81BX2453d ago

Well I would hope so. LA is a much older game

UNCHARTED2FANATIC2453d ago

ABSOLUTELY NOT. Not even close, L.A. Noire was using tech we might not see for a while

InMyOpinion2453d ago

Exactly. Not many studios will put the same amount of resources into face capturing as L.A. Noire.

TricksterArrow2453d ago

Wasn't the same kind of tech used on Forbidden Siren, for the PS2?

gangsta_red2453d ago

Too bad some of the faces look downright horrible...I get the chills every time I have to play against Poison Ivy or Vixen

SubZtx2453d ago

Harley Quinn is the best facial animated character I have seen in a game. It is pretty amazing.

Great month, looking forward to Hot Wheels, I really love some good old arcade racing

darthv72609d ago

Heck yeah... love me some hot wheels

CobraKai609d ago

It’s fantastic. I paid full price and it’s worth it

LG_Fox_Brazil609d ago

Of course, these subscriptions cost money, you know?

MrVux000608d ago

Something inherently wrong with that?

Crows90608d ago (Edited 608d ago )

Yeah. Ps plus gives you value for your money. Unlike a different subscription that just takes your money. Hence why Sony where the first at every turn to give what players want or appear to be interested in. Free monthly games...check. subscription service with games ...check. And as always Microsoft goes in to do the same but constantly fails at giving good value. Games with gold has sucked the majority of it's existence. Gamepass is more expensive than ps plus extra and it doesn't give you online or monthly games. Ultimate is the most expensive service and yet it has less high rated games on its service than ps extra.

So yes. We should always judge these services for the value they give.

Mobis-New-Nest609d ago

Hopefully they have God of War Ragnarok, Modern Warfare 2 Remake and Last of Us Remake for December 2022. This selection is down right depressing 😞

FinalFantasyFanatic608d ago

Yeah, nah, they're not going to give us Ragnarok when it's practically just come out, they know they can still make alot of money off that one for another 6 or so months, probably the same with the Last of Us Remake.

Crows90608d ago (Edited 608d ago )

Oh so you want all of the games for pennies. You think that would help the devs much? Gaming isn't a charity business.

another good line-up. Hot Wheels looks interesting. Never played it.
Still hooked in Need for Speed Heat (this month's PS Plus free game)

darthv72609d ago

This just reminded me to nab NFS before it was yanked. Thanks for that.

lucian229609d ago

Looks like another good month. Really was happy with gran blue fantasy last in the current month.

MIDGETonSTILTS17609d ago

I’m so glad I didn’t buy this on sale, albeit now I have to get the dlc

CobraKai609d ago (Edited 609d ago )

I didn’t know Superhot was a non-vr game too.

Mr Logic609d ago

For those that read this, keep in mind that Superhot was a flat game that was later made into VR. It wasn't a VR game that was ported for more sales. Both are worth playing as the levels and scenarios are different in both versions.

The article states Tekken 7 might be the best fighter currently available on Xbox, but leaves out important information that it never takes advantage of the Xbox hardware. It never got any kind of patch/boost/upgrade for the more powerful Xbox consoles, meaning it still runs at 720p I believe, resulting in a very blurry look.

Truly wish more devs would respect their products and customers enough to address issues such as these.
