Notch on the subject. He doesn't think much of it.

Tempted to go with Notch on this one. People always make a big deal out of new technology when it's beginning to have its first possible applications, but they always focus on what it could eventually be and don't really notice all the drawbacks. Animation seems like one of the biggest hurdles in this case, and that's not a small issue.

Hm.... That guys voice sounds so annoying. It's really... fake?
But I highly doubt that Crytek will use it that. I mean Crytek has their own engine (CryEngine 3), not to mention it looks stunning. The DX11 update makes Crysis 2 look WONDERFUL! Also there is Unreal Engine 3.

However I think the Console games would probably like to utilize that tech. It'll be interesting to see if any developers utilize it.
