Official Call of Duty®: Advanced Warfare Reveal Trailer
Featuring (a very uncanny valley) Kevin Spacey
Posted here because Kevin Spacey. Wow, video games can afford actors of that caliber now? and they do it?
Still, next gen consoles haven't solved the uncanny valley. But I blame the animation department, more than the game engine and hardware. My bet is that computer graphics humans could look more realistic, but it would take a too much time (and money) to be worth it.

Eat, shoot - he's probably making more from this video game than he does from the average movie.
Unfortunately, as more and more money pours into video game development, quality seems to be going downhill rapidly. Graphics look nice, though.

A search should get you the regular version.
With 57 pages so far, I'm thinking this is already here, but such a gem deserves it more than once.

Intelligent Details
Bentley just released this short spot about the design details in their cars called "intelligent design."
What is amazing is just how they filmed it. They just used iPhones with special lenses attached, and the result is pretty breathtaking. And then they edited it on an iPad Air.
