Computer Generated, Anime News-Reading On Your Playstation 3.
We posted a few days ago about a teaser included in the Blu-Ray edition of an Evangelion anime pointing towards a PS3 game. Well, we’re afraid to say, it’s not a game. Take a breath for a second. For ¥800 a month, starting June 6, Japanese PS3 owners can get a 3D news reader for their system which features Misato from Evangelion. Yes, news!
But that’s not all; Misato’s voice will be completely computer-generated. Namco chose to go this way since it was deemed impossible to hire a voice actor for everyday news reading.
We can’t help but chortle.
