My definition of photorealism is different than EA-Sports, but whether or not each rivulet of oily sweat or pucker of a sucking pore can be clearly descried on Dwayne Wade's virtual head, the ability to make a basket dunk in his pickled brain jar at Wired's NextFest is about the best possible use for a basketballers virtual coconut that I can think of.

I really can't think of a logical connection - perhaps The Doctor needs to investigate EA for dealings of the extraterrestrial kind:

Is it just me, or does that head look like Emru Townsend?
