Comments policy
Destructoid is an open discussion community. You don't need to "audition" to post a comment - just speak your mind. We respect differing opinions on the site, so have at it. Be smart, funny, insightful, clueless, or cute -- but back it up with substance. Keep your cool, keep it fun. We only ask that you act respectfully and above all: don't be a troll and ruin it for everyone else. Don't bring down gamers or we'll, you know, gently shoot you in the face and stuff you into a flaming mailbox. Each comment is your opportuntity to make this community awesomer. Is that even a word?
Avoiding the banhammer only requires common sense: spamming, trolling, racism, NSFW stuff, and other forms of sucking will not be tolerated. If anyone is griefing please report abuse. Be good. Don't suck!

I think the creep factor you were feeling is that your mind knew that what you were watching was not real, but your eyes were showing you nothing to the opposite effect.

I would surmise that the face is vastly more difficult to jump past the uncanny valley on. Firstly it is the face that we primarily pay attention to during conversation (unless you have severe self confidence, or shyness issues).
Secondly, the face is also vastly more uniquely articulated than say, your forearm. My point being, if they can trick your mind into believing a face animation is real, the body itself will be rudimentary in comparison.
