So far, he's seen quite a bit. Through object overload, he's made Regret disappear (as well as other enemies, visual effects, and bits of furniture) as well as made over a hundred of the Prophet's chairs appear out of thin air.

Outside The Actors Studio

Next Generation has picked up a post from Tadhg Kelly's blog, suggesting that as in-engine cutscenes become more detailed, the gap between those images and photorealism becomes actually more pronounced-- and that the only real resolution to this problem is a return to full motion video for cutscenes, using real actors. Halo is cited as support for this:
