    Ow, my finger hurts from all that scrolling...
    Anyways, that does look amazing. I agree that things always look better when they're in motion. You don't have as much time to scrutinise every little detail.

      1 in 10?
      Damn, that's pretty optimistic. I would've said one in 20.
      Anyways, why do they do it? It sells, its that simple. How well do you think an advertising campaign would do if it was like this:
      Instead of a supermodel eating Doritos, its some 500lb woman who is confined to her bed, saying, "I eat because I'm depressed and I'm depressed because I eat".
      That wouldn't SELL their product at all. But pop an abnormally beautiful model into it, and suddenly (at least most males) people notice.
      Besides, at least with print ads and pictures, they're almost always airbrushed. Remember the time they airbrushed Cindy Crawford so much that they removed her navel?

              I think my waist is like 22 or something... I'm almost as skinny as Asuka from Neon Genesis Evangelion... (I got red hair and blue eyes too ;)
              Not that it has anything to do with FF :p
              True, you can see the people aren't real, but come on when you compare it to stuff they made 10 years ago its amazing. Imagine what things will be in another 10 years. I think Grey looks a bit more realistic than Aki. I also think they should have made Aki a little bit prettier. After all the heroines in all the games are prettier than Aki. Her nose is too big.- Min

                I dunno...Dr Sid looks pretty real, IMO.
                I think Aki looks the least real, and the reason for that, ironically enough, is because everything on her looks just a little too "perfect" (if that makes any sense). Her hair and eyelashes are too perfect and evenly spaced or something... *shrug*
                Things don't have to be this way.
                Catch me on a better day.
