Boring Sundays are boring.

This is something i had a mind to do for a few weeks but didn't have any good topic to talk about. This is simply a casual opinion of mine and nothing to be taken seriously. But i do hope i get some feedback on this if you people like it. I didn't really prepare anything formally to say. This is just me speaking casually.

In this Audio log, i talk briefly about the Mass effect 3 demo. It's sort of a review you can say. If i missed anything i'm really sorry, and if i didn't do justice to this Demo i apologize for that as well, but please do listen to it and may be i will do something like this again =]

Hopefully this isn't much to ask from you guys, its just 13 mins long and i tried to be as calm as possible and not deviate from the topic. Feedback is appreciated kthnx bai

    Must...... avoid.......... criticizing......... vocabulary........ and........... pronunciation........ >.<

    Haha JK

    Alright, 2 things, No. 1: Make these shorter or atleast in parts, Ofcourse you cant make this one into parts cuz it'd just be dumb to turn an audio log about one specific topic into three different files but in the future, try and cut them up if they are gonna be long. No. 2: Do more of these, this is a nice change in blogging. I recommend others to try this atleast once, its more fun then just reading words

    This was a nice Audio Log, got me interested in ME3. I'm no fan of the series cuz I'm not into sci-fi RPGs but this Audio Log got me interested in atleast checking out the demo. Good Job USUF, Keep up the good work

    Good stuff, USUF!

    I hope you have more of these boring Sundays, so that we may get more of such audio logs.

    Also, I agree about ME3 not adding anything new in the gameplay department. The leap from ME1 to ME2 was definitely far more substantial.

    I'll listen to em' later.

    But honestly, the term Audio Logs always reminds me of Dead Space. Plan to record your last moments in an apocalypse?

    Is Gears of War also Unreal engine?
    That happens to be my favorit xbox game...specially the GOW classic?
    Yes i agree unreal engine graphics are not incredible but the AI is just great....specially comparing to another game i played extensively "Lost Planet" which has slightly better graphics but the aliens and snow pirates are just dumb,if you are playing offline.
    You did not talk much about AI in Mass effect 3.....May be in your next AudioLog?
    You talked about the emotional scenes in the game and that they were excellently executed..I havent Played Mass effect and cannot comment on Emotional aspect,infact i cannot see any emotions in any game,its just me keeping in mind all the time that its pixels who dont exist..But hey we do get emotional while watching Movies and we know none of that is real..I got emotional while watching Avatar in the scene where the Hmans are Destroying the Na'vi home tree,later i laughed at myself.
    But yes i know what you mean..reverting back to GOW ...Gears of War 2,probably the most emotional scene is in Act 4 Chapter 2 where Dom finds his wife,and the way they shown it is incredible.
    She walks out of the Metallic capsule all beautiful and healthy and you think wow you found your woman (well you tend to get into a game character's mindset at times,and feel their feelings,as stupid as it may sound,but yes)
    And then the camera turns and you see that se has been tortured by locust and Dom has to kill her.
    Gears of war 2-Dom Kills his Wife-Act 4 Chapter 2 - YouTube

    Sorry i couldnt talk about the game your Audiolig was about ..i had to take refence from a comparable game ..
    But yes thi is a good trend,keep it up..Mor Audiologs Pliss...Specially when PG had stopped doing those Podcast they used to do.

    ^ I guess i covered the gameplay up in a very brief manner when i said that its not much different from the one we've seen from Mass Effect 2, so you can guess how the A.I was because i didn't feel any substantial difference. But again, this is just the Demo, may be in the final game we might see some incredible level design through which the A.I might show some good amount of "intelligence" on how to navigate and get an angle on you.

    About the emotional cutscene, i think you might have over heard me but i was specifically talking about a cutscene that comes at the end of the first segment of this Demo. That scene was really touching for me. The execution of it was fantastic coupled with the soundtrack that played in the Background...epic!

    Sad that only a few people listened to this. I thought i'd get a barrage of criticism over this at the very least but damn

    Your English is good.
    Very nice. You know, before doing such a thing maybe you should plan everything out. Like write the main points on a piece of paper and then do it.
    Very good initiative. (Y)

    My biggest criticism is that you didnt use the keyword "Blam" at all during the Audio...
    The lack of Blam makes me suspect if it was really you? or somebody else?
