5 Uncanny Valley Moments in Video Games!

Look at me, I'm real. I'm a real boy. I would never hurt you papa.


Games Mentioned:



1. Silent hill 2 “I’m not your mary”
a. The sudden change between a blocky model and a much higher rendered Maria can be disconcerting. The dark shading on her face gives a sense of realism but at the same time something is not quite right. Like she isn’t…real….
2. Original siren, faces painted on
a. The original siren on the PS2 used pictures of real faces plastered onto the low polygon models. Giving the game’s atmosphere a dreamy and creepy feel.
3. Star Craft 2 Adjuant
a. The Terran voice, Adjuant, can be seen as kinda cute and soothing, until she does this (face comes off).
4. Half life 2 the G man
a. Purposely invoked into the GMan, he is hinted to be not human by way of his facial expressions being slightly too late, and his voice inflections being slightly too exaggerated.
5. Silent Hill 4: The Room
a. The opening to silent hill 4: the room uses grainy filters to make the game footage seem like real life from a terrible camera, the results are unsettling.
