Ahh, looks more like a giant, walking crocodile in tha Oblivion shot.
Anyways, back on topic. The screenshot looks pretty impressive. The dragon design(or his head in particular) reminds me of Godzilla( from the dreadful 1998 movie)....

Looks hot, I wonder where this is taken from, I've always expected the gameplay to be a behind the dragon POV, panzer dragoon style.
I wouldn't be surprised if it's in-game with the camera turned around, and the cammands in the top-left are simply for your 'squad'
I love what they did with the leather straps, they don't look normal mapped at all.

It could be an spiritual successor to Drakan
I believe Sony own's that IP too( since they bought Psygonosis years ago)

This is a similar type deal (and similar money) with what MS is spending on Silcon Knights "too human" trilogy. All three games are developed at the same time.

That's the first time I've heard to the Lair stuff released as CG...
The model looks the same (at least quality wise), outside of the original being wet and this one not (I'm not sure if sometimes the dragons get wet or if the specular wetness was all turned off).

It was realtime. The difference here I can see is that the skin isn't nearly as 'slimey' as in the footage from last year, and lot of people actually seem to prefer that.
Yea, but half those people couldn't find their way out of a wet paper bag, and on top of that they'd probably complain that it didn't look realistic. (I do like GAF, but most of their complaints are wonky)
The wetness of the original model looked great given the setting (seeing as it was being drenched in rain)... I'm hoping the specular shiny wasn't just removed completely but depends on the situation (if its raining or you've been in rain for a while then you get sloppy wet).

I think it's a lot of money. You're starting to get into film production territory. But with the scanned methods they used to model the dragons, I'm not surprised at how expensive it is. Just that 25 million wasn't what I thought it would be, thought it would be a bit lower.

Given that they were showing assets, it's more likely they could turn on and off certain effects to show them more properly.
