Sucker Punch uses real-life extras to populate the city of Seattle in Infamous: Second Son (http://www.joystiq.com/game/infamous-second-son)– developers recruited 75 friends, family members and professionals over three days to sit in front of a complex camera installment, absolutely still, while the lenses strobed out layers of their faces. With friends like Sucker Punch, who needs seizure medication? Everyone, probably.

There's a visual breakdown of Sucker Punch's scanning process on Game Informer (http://www.gameinformer.com/games/infamous_second_son/b/playstation4/archive/2013/05/24/how-sucker-punch-photocopied-actors-for-infamous-second-son.aspx?PageIndex=2). Or, if you're patient, just buy an Xbox One later this year and sit really still in front of that always-on Kinect (http://www.joystiq.com/2013/05/22/xbox-one-requires-kinect-connection/) camera – and maybe you'll spot your own fine face in a next-gen crowd. (You probably won't. We hope.)
