New Fallout: New Vegas screenshots

Is it just me or did they base the look of the SM a little off this guy from Tears Of The Sun and 300.

I suspect this is as good as it's going to get for SM textures. I don't think we'll see anything in 3D that looks as good as the 10+ year old talking heads for quite some time.

Much improved over Beth's version, anyway. I may end up trying out NV, after skipping "FO3" completely.

Time constraints? At first they weren't even sure if they'll manage to find time to reskin them at all, hence they originally used Fallout 3 super mutant models.

Judging from Sawyer's comment, there are also tech constraints. They had to mirror the body to get the more detailed head. And the body actually looks worse to me compared to Bethesda's SMs, so it might be degraded in other ways.

I like the new face model. They're going in the right direction. This is basically a "fuck you" to Bethesda as it should be for the shitty models of F3.

Meh, looks like one of those rubbery action figures. I want to see how he looks with that strap when he is not angry. Hopefully, he has other expressions.
