There is very little showing of improved bending so far but the expressions definitely look good, IF the folds and dents are from the expression package and not sculpted specifically for V9.
You're certainly not alone @Darklordf. There seems to be quite a few hand bones missing, particularly the thumb trapezium which makes a realistic thumb grasp impossible.
Well, anyone intersted in getting G9 preorder, use FORTY-FOR-ME in checkout, EDGE just found it and it brings it down to $25.19 (US) or $67.19 (US) for the bundle.
I'm gonna put in for it.
Oh, I have something positive to say about G9. It's good that G9 creators didn't overworked those DUCK LIPS. They kept the silicone injections just under the totally ridiculous threshold.
