Stranger's Wrath - the new Oddworld game

"Character Ammunition"
- This article is OK but check out some of the renders. Especially the ork guy at the bottom of the first page. Awesome. The penis/mushroom-headed things look a bit crap but the Orc gives Blizzard a run for their money.

Making Of Article - for the intro movie for the game Stranger's Wrath.
And there's a clip for it too, 23MB

Psyop

Stomp I know I've bent your ear on this shit a billion times, a 3D line that reveals itself over time. Well these guys are the fucking kings of that shit. take time to look through their impressive folio of adverts that all feature a similar style. a couple to look out for is the new EA Sports one, End to End Burners (I think it's listed as Company Flow).

A bit more research has revealed that they use Softimage/XSi so that works out nicely, now it's time to hit google & see if there are anyt appropriate tutes otu there.
