Princess Elise, especially in the in-game cutscenes. I like her general character, but she really didn't gel with the cast of otherwise cartoony characters at all. If she was in Sonic Unleashed, things might have been different, but still.

Experience has taught me to investigate anything that glows.

Perhaps it's time for a discussion. How come Heavenly Sword (mostly) avoids the Valley, wheras Heavy Rain falls backward into the Valley, arms and legs flailing, screaming NOOOOOOOOOO all the way down?

Can't think of anything witty, so have this instead...

Because Ninja Theory(for both HS and Enslaved) outsourced their facial animation to an expensive CGI company.

Quantic Dream didn't and apparently don't have very good animators.

Andy Serkis's company, I believe.

Anyway, Goldeneye Wii has this trope in spades.

KLAATU. VERADA. NICTOE!!

Dont mind me, just performing some thread necromancy.

I wonder how sad you have to be to ressurect your own threads?

If a thread is unused enough for the maker to think they need resurrecting, then they're too dead to deserve resurrection. Let the dead stay dead.
