What better way to start off your Monday than with a good breakfast, a bucket full of coffee and this LA Noire blooper reel! Depth analysis, the firm behind the motion capture for the Team Bondi detective game, have compiled every mistake, line mess-up and sneeze into this entertaining collage of Uncanny Valley missteps.

If you thought the photo-realistic faces on those robotic moving bodies looked strange before, it's even worse when the actors are joking around and messing up. And that was the main problem with the technology, it looked too good and resulted in an awkward relationship between the character faces and pretty much everything else in the game.

It almost makes me want to go back and re-play it.

    It's so bizarre to see their faces when they break character. It looks kinda spooky to see a human face on a body like that.

    They look so much more human in these bloopers than they ever did in-game.

    I really like that this got put out. I agree with the other comments that it does make the characters seem more human I guess mainly because they don't seem so pre-rendered when they mess up a line and start making fun of themselves. I didn't realize that some of those scenes were shot with multiple actors in the same room. I guess I figured they recorded them on their own and were then digitally combined. It's almost like watching a blooper reel from a movie. Good stuff!
