Unless I get you wrong, it should probably be pointed out that motion capture isn't the same as "capturing actors on video". Motion capture is the technique of having actors perform various actions that are then stored as animation files that allow game characters to move.
This thread is a great example of why the games industry needs to get rid of unnecessary terminology. "FMV adventure" could simply be "video adventure", right? "Full motion" doesn't even mean anything. It's not like you tell people you went to a cinema to see a "full motion picture" either.
