Remember last year and how all of your Facebook wall was suddenly packed with the digital distorted mutant faces of your loved ones due to NBA 2k15’s facial scan being, er, creative in its interpretation?
The closer we get to virtual reality’s return to the gaming field, the higher hopes and expectations get for stuff like this. It would be great to get to a point where you can scan yourself and your friends into a game and play with and against them on even a visual level, but as this experiment demonstrated, the execution is still smooshy at best.
That said, the facial scan feature could maybe be repackaged as an app to show you what a baby would look like if you did the deed with Grendel’s mother.
