最近"生化危機 5"(Resident Evil,一個恐怖動作電視遊戲) 推出,看看它的網站,給我找到一些怪獸:

“Resident Evil 5″ (a horror TV action game) is going to lauch, I visit its site, and found the “new” enemy :

整個遊戲中還有很多像這位先生的喪屍:

There are full of zombies in the game, just like this :

再看看遊戲中這隻怪獸:

這種身體變形的情況在Francis Bacon 的畫很普遍,而且遊戲中的氣氛渲染及質感也很像:

This kind of body shape is common in Francis Bacon painting, so as the game’s atmosphere and horror feeling :

我嘗試聯絡 Resident Evil 的遊戲商 Capcom 了解一下,看看他們的開發團隊是不是從畫中得到靈感,但不成功,遊戲設計師好像是 三上真司 (Shinji Mikami),我會再嘗試找他問問。

I tried to contact Capcom (the game developing company) to ask about it but failed. The game chief designer seems to be Shinji Mikami, hope that I have chance to prove it, it is quite an interesting coincidence.
