making use of graphical enhancements first introduced in the eighth-generation versions of NBA 2K14.
7. Face Scanning Feature:
NBA 2K15 allows players to scan their faces into the
game for created players, using the PlayStation Camera
on PlayStation 4 or the Kinect on Xbox One. The 3-D
mapping process creates a realistic rendition of the
gamer's face to make their gaming experience as real as
possible. The process of scanning the face will take about
30 seconds. Players need to get very close (6-12 inches)
to the camera and slowly turn their heads 30 degrees to
the left and right during the scanning process.

Final Fantasy VII: Respecting the Remake
GE writes: “Final Fantasy VII Remake”, the words every Final Fantasy
(shortened to FF for ease in the article) has begged for since the PS2.
Honestly, I never thought I would see a remake unless Square was
just losing money, and about to file for bankruptcy, and this year at E3,
I was proven, oh so wrong. I remember hearing rumors that a trailer
would be shown, but of course, these rumors have existed since
2005ish, and I brushed them off. However, I heard those words, “do
we have surprise for you,” and I looked at the screen, heard the music
from Advent Children playing, and saw Midgar, and went nuts. I lost it,
my friend Greg called me, all the way from Alaska, my team called me,
my best friend just laughed as he was home, my baby looked at her
father as if he was dying, and Nicole just shook her head, and laughed
at her boyfriend. FFVII was being remade, and I was already waiting
for the Collector’s Edition.
And then I heard it, I heard the dreaded words from other gamers,
“they’re going to ruin it!” I couldn’t believe what I was hearing, these
people had been BEGGING for this for years, and they immediately
were doubting it. Hell, we didn’t even have any details on it, and they
were doubting it."
