It certainly makes for interesting stories :-)<br /><br />http://www.gameinformer.com/b/news/archive/2012/03/07/david-cage-shows-off-quantic-dream-39-s-new-kara-engine-at-gdc.aspx<br /><br />That great long link above goes to a 7 minute video. It's showing off new software skills but I think you'd like the video for its own sake if you have time to watch it.

So long as you can explain it then you can do what you want. Androids in science fiction are like dragons in fantasy. People will continue to read about them so long as you make them original.Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13016973541553233943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9014610743273803857.post-42700030246375179162012-03-27T16:34:28.402-06:002012-03-27T16:34:28.402-06:00Great questions to think about.

Those that were once fully human but augmented in a way. At what point are they no longer human?Christine Rainshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08263694662585963900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9014610743273803857.post-63515756173774240322012-03-27T10:08:15.093-06:002012-03-27T10:08:15.093-06:00Robots (the movie) addressed a bit the growing up ...Robots (the movie) addressed a bit the growing up of robots in a humorous way....an interesting thought...maybe not physically but def could learn beyond where they are at dont you think...and then upgrade a bodyBrian Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00722940075884718007noreply@blogger.com
