Maybe with newer versions, but I really doubt it's happening with the current model.

Also, to be frank, I think it looks like crap. The animation is fine, but the faces themselves look less real and more like terrible rubber masks. So essentially a hobo with a Rolex.

That's not to say the technology isn't amazing, but the graphics the tech is being used for could be much, much better. Then again I never did like how the Xbox line handled diffuse lighting for some reason.
