Faces of gaming: Real vs Virtual
Has next-gen tech brought perfect likenesses to gaming? We run the comparisons to find out
Above: The Undertaker pulling faces in WWE Smackdown vs RAW! and the game
It says something about Mr. The Undertaker's conviction and professionalism that this is one of the more sensible shots of his face we could find. His character is gritty, unflinching and really rather horrid. In comparison, the game version looks positively gentle, perhaps gasping at the high-flung antics of a ballet show he's watching.
But back to the resemblancesment. Hair issuesspoil the look again, as the digital strands look morelike cut-out paper spaghetti. And you can't help but feel sorry for the poor chap who had to digitise Mr The Undertaker's tattoo collection, though they've done marvellously. But, give the devs some credit, his in-game nose has been perfectly reproduced, including that cute bob on the end. Although we suggest informing Mr. The Undertaker of that charming little fact would be a mistake.
