My summery of the Headlines portion:

Silverman :"CES just started for Mass Effect 3, so will we show off a new trailer, new mission, or even a new character? Who cares about those, at least you'll find out more about Kinetic functionality!" =]

Me: ".... Go to hell, Silverman." <_<


I wonder how many people will actually use Kinect... I'd love to see the stats on that..

Is that actual quote or did you mean to say Kinect functionality? Cause Kinetic Functionality is a rocking phrase and props to Silverman for using it.

I would have expected the writing team to be larger. I'm surprised it's just 8. They must be kept busy.


8 is quite a sizeable number. Valve Software have only five as far as I know.

I'm not so comfortable with the amount of writers.

You know what they say about cooks and soups.

Eh, so long as there's a hearty enough serving of Patrick Weekes Bisque I ought to be fine with mostly whatever other ingredients they decide to slip in my cuisine.

I really wish there was FemShep love in these episodes, guess she doesn't exist.

Oh well back to reading the leaked script la lala la.


Totally agree! i'm a guy and was always more drawn to my female character mainly due to the superior voice acting.  I always enjoyed playing as her more.

Bigger isn't always better? More doesn't always equal the best?

But you're right. Though it could be fun hearing how they went back and fort arguing what will happen and when.^_^

Nice metaphors and I agree as well, but I hope the writers won't mix things up too much.

Sometimes I think that Bioware enjoys mocking on us.

Maybe because they are watching the forums dailys? (QQ posts usually that is)

Silverman is hilarious and has good energy and actually very good voice inflection. The Kinect bit was classic!

Yes, really.  They have a new feature in the game, and they're going to promote it. There's nothing unusual about this in the least.  The fact that you or I may not care isn't particularly relevant.

Exactly.

And CES is an electronics show. Microsoft is going to be pushing for AAA games to use Kinect, so it makes sense that they'll want ME3 to show it off.

To be fair though it's hardly the most requested Mass Effect feature of all time... quite the opposite probably

That's not really the point. If anything, that's just more incentive for them to promote it.

Although I quite like Mac, he's definitely pandering in this video.


He wouldn't be doing his job if he wouldn't be :D
