While the use of kinect is interesting on this, it seems to put the game on a rail or easy mode. At least from the video, it seemed to automate the throwing and shooting at people, where you basically just had to have them on screen, and the character would do what you said to whoever was in the way. While neat, and if it is the case I just stated, I don't want a game to play itself for me. There is little joy to having a game do the important parts, just because I said "shoot".

From what I saw, it's the same thing as using the "wheel" menu in the game. Where you used the wheel to direct Ashley, or to swap weapons, you could use your voice instead. I don't see any rails at all. It seems like a voice activated menu system.

Did you see the throwing grenade and shooting parts? Hard to tell if the person moved the controller at the time of the shot or if it was automated after saying whatever command it was to throw or shoot. But I sure hope that isn't the case.

The opening of doors and commands to teammates is cool and usefull. And that did make things a little more immersive. I just hope the other combat parts werent automated.

Boycotting the epic conclusion to a great series is stupid imo. Origin is not that bad and people should quit acting like it is the devil.

I agree. Its definitely no steam right now but its decent. the program isn't too bloated and seems to be perfectly functional as far as I can tell.

New featurette of James Vega, voiced by Freddie Prinze Jr. It's nice to see a fan of the series that really gets it :)

Great video! Thanks for sharing it. It shows a lot of footage that hasn't been shown before. I was pleasantly surprised to see a

Rachni Queen

at 1:57. Also, the graphics look better than ever.

love Freddie Prinze myself, he always brings back fond memories as i loved the 90's :D

am waiting for this one for sure, one of the few remaining games i will get for this generation of consoles. it looks pretty good, albeit very similar to ME2....

Looking totally epic :woot: I still haven't pre-ordered this game because I have to wait till I get paid again (another 2 and half weeks away, damn I hate being paid monthly!) but soon as I do get paid, I'm pre-ordering straight away...man I can't wait for this game. March cannot come soon enough.

yes , from what i read it will be online only no split screen/lan

Mass Effect 3 Co-Op Multiplayer Doesn't Have Split-Screen or LAN Support

Interesting, I would have expected both. Mass Effect multiplayer would seem like a perfectly reasonable split-screen game.

Without a doubt, Mass Effect and Mass Effect 2 has had some of the best voice talent out there. And Mass Effect 3 won't be an exception. I can't wait to hear what the characters have to say.

    • NVIDIA officially supports Ubuntu, as linked above with the GeForce NOW Hands on I did in collaboration with Paul Hill.
    • TO be clear I am not running linux today, however I keep thinking about it. And I want to make sure there are minimal obstacles if I decide to make that switch in the coming months.
    • Yes, I actually glossed over the Linux part from the OP. You could always go for a 9070 XT and if you really want to play Ray Traced games in the future, GeForce Now is pretty damn good on Linux https://www.neowin.net/news/nvidias-native-geforce-now-app-for-linux-bridges-the-gaming-gap-hands-on/
    • One reason it might be running hotter is dust build up within the cooling or perhaps the paste has dried out. You could always try repasting your old GPU and cleaning the cooler. Your experience in Linux will be much better with an AMD GPU; the performance in gaming is much closer to Windows than nVidia would be. I personally think on Windows, AMD drivers are junk.
    • I reviewed it back in March, but I didn't have a 5070 at the time https://www.neowin.net/reviews/amd-rx-9070-review-vs-rtx-5070-4070-and-rx-9070-xt-7800-xt--just-good-enough/ When I reviewed the 9070 I did have a 5070 to compare it against, so the scores are there for the 9070 XT. it outperforms the 5070 in raster, and is barely neck and neck in Ray Tracing. So it's better than a 5070 in everything but Ray Tracing where it is neck and neck, or just under. To be honest, the uplift from 3080 when it was new to the 9070 XT is not as great a step up. If you can find a used 4080 Super for around the same money, you would probably be better off, but if you only want to buy new then the 16GB 9070 XT is the best value for money in its category.
