I have just bought Agisoft Photoscan Standard for my untitled project!
After discovering this new technology for reducing production time for realistic game objects and characters, this was a must for me since I want to develop a quality game.
As seen in this one hour presentation http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=17nje72VnPE photoscanning is modern and just as much "cheating" today as making 3d textures from real photos was back in the days.
It is mostly for realism and will not make 3d artists unemployed, because there will always be need for hand made artistic expressions.
