Putting A Cat’s Face On A Fight Night 4 Boxer

Fight Night 4, like many of EA Sports’ titles, allows you to use a camera and their “GameFace” tech to import a version of your mug into the game.

Not content to play as the prerendered fighters in the game, or as themselves, the brothers KindaGamey decided to try and import the face of their cat, Sufjan, into the game. Well, to try and import their cat’s face into Fight Night 4.

After loads of tries and messing around with the face recognition software, the two were left with a fighter sporting, in their words, a “sad, squat little blotchy face. Certainly not the human fighter with a cat head we would have liked.”

I can’t help but think that this is the modern equivalent of trying to teach a pig to sing, something that, old adages tell us, shouldn’t be done because it annoys the pig and wastes your time.

And in this case, though, the pig has claws.
