Commander Shepard's Kinect-Enabled Descent Into Madness

Quote:
Now that the Kinect has been out for a while, we've begun to see developers use the technology for more than just gesture-controlled sports compilations. BioWare might be the most high-profile example of this, having implemented the Kinect as a tool for voice commands in the Xbox 360 version of Mass Effect 3. It's one of the few Kinect-compatible games that completely eschews any use of the sensor's built-in camera; this space opera is all about shouting.

Having played some of it for ourselves at CES last week, it's clear that BioWare's done a good job of getting the technology to play nicely with its sci-fi shooter action sequences. Pretty much everything you can do from the radial menu can also be done with your voice. And in a nice touch, you can say "quick save" to make the game, well, quick save. Take that F6 key!

But there is something odd about voice commands in Mass Effect 3. It's something that makes you take a step back and think, "Maybe I should tone it down a bit." See, you're supposed to be role playing as Commander Shepard, right? So isn't it a little weird to shout "shotgun!" to switch to your boomstick, or "incendiary ammo!" to switch to fire bullets? At that point, aren't you kind of yelling at yourself?

The Kinect voice commands are great for issuing squad orders. If James is playing it too safe, you can yell "James attack!" and he'll charge forward just as you commanded. If you need to get at an enemy pinned behind cover, you can shout "Liara lift!" and she'll instantly turn your foes into a bunch of helplessly floating bull's-eyes. It works; it feels natural. You're Shepard commanding your troops like the space general you are.

But yelling at yourself to open a door instead of hitting the A button per the giant onscreen button prompt? That's a little weird. There's some mild mental instability bubbling beneath the surface there. But, hey, maybe it's just us. Take a look at the demo below and let us know what you think of Mass Effect 3's voice commands in the comments.

Hang on to your Mass Effect 3 saves

Quote:
Hang on to your Mass Effect 3 saves, suggests BioWare
Future Mass Effect games could be influenced by ME3 actions, suggests producer.

Hang on to those Mass Effect 3 saves once you're done, folks - BioWare may have plans to make use of them in the future.
"It wouldn't be a bad idea (to keep your ME3 saves)" said Associate Producer Mike Gamble talking to GamerZinest last week. "Obviously I can't say anything, but it wouldn't be a bad idea..."

Mass Effect 2 and 3 both use save states from the games prior to determine the player's previous actions and use them to help shape the story.

Mass Effect 3 is the last game in the Shepard trilogy, but BioWare hasn't ruled out the option to return to the Mass Effect universe in the future.
As for Shepard's send-off, Gamble says that it has to leave players satisfied.
"We want the outcomes to be satisfying to the player. That doesn't necessarily mean they're all going to be happy or positive, but they have to be satisfying. Players have to understand that the choices they've been making in this game and in previous have had an impact, and that they're an architect in what happens."
How will Shepard's story end? Find out on Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC on March 9th.

Because it wont be coming out on Steam.

To play the game you will need EA Origin (EA's version of Steam) to be able to activate the game and play it

Fuck Origin, I didn't get BF3 for PC because of it, now I guess I'm not getting Mass Effect 3 on PC because of it. PS3, here we come!

just played the demo real fast, it felt like mass effect alright =] Even though it's the first time playing it on pc. Demo was kind of short, but not too much of the story is spoiled in it so yay! 3 weeks to go :love:

Damn what a good and satisfying game. I can't wait to start ME2. I'll definitely be preordering ME3 now.

I've been going back and replaying the first 2 games for some game saves. I can honestly say, that the Joker and EDI interactions in ME2 make the whole series worth buying all by itself.

Best part of the game is the one where you play Joker and EDI says she enjoys the sight of humans on their knees.
Made me laugh so hard when i saw Joker's face :sohappy:

I don't mind it that much, but especially at like darker parts you could see...I dunno, shading problems or something? Could be my tv although it's a pretty decent one o.O

Anyway I can't wait! I got free coming week so I'm quite bummed out, would rather have had the vacation 2 weeks later where I could've no-lifed the shit out of the game :] Oh well I still got the weekend, who needs sleep anyways.

I did notice the shading was odd in general. It's too sensitive. You barely move and the shading shifts a lot. That was the first thing my brother also pointed out who is experienced in 3d art design. It's almost like the shading isn't dependent on any fixed source and its just random depending on how much illumination an area has.

I'm just starting the Virmire mission on ME1 on my second playthrough and I'm only level 58. If I can't get to 60 before I finish the game I'm gonna play ME2 on full renegade :soosad:

Edit: just finished my second playthrough of mass effect 1. I'm level 59, SON OF A BIIIITCH. 200000 exp to get from 59 to 60, you've got to be shitting me.
