Mass Effect 3 Multiplayer Character Class/Kit Builder Website Review

One of the nice things about Mass Effect 3 multiplayer is the fact that we are given the option to customise how we spend our character points, for example if you don't like a certain power, you can skip it altogether and concentrate on maxing out the other evolutions. While it is fun and interesting to create the perfect set up for your characters, it can also be quite annoying and frustrating when you're having to do it through copious amounts of trial and error. True you can promote and use respec cards to wipe the points clean but what happens if you don't have a stack of respec cards or don't enjoy having to promote, simply because you found out the points you assigned weren't that great.
   
What to pick?! Decisions, decisions...

Asari Valkyrie (vs. N7 Fury) - Mass Effect 3 Multiplayer Character Discussion and Review


Asari Valkyrie
Earlier this week Bioware released another one of the new multiplayer characters; the Asari Valkyrie. As a fan of biotic characters (who doesn't like the biotic BOOM?!), I was quite looking forward to trying out this character when the full list of new characters was released a few weeks ago. For those that don't know, she is classified as a Sentinel and her powers comprise of Tech Armour, Annihilation Field and Warp. 

At first thought I imagined her to be a sturdier version of my beloved N7 Fury and after a couple matches (on Gold) with the Valkyrie, i was proved half right. Assuming you spec into tech armour and have it turned on, she can take a little bit more punishment than the Fury before getting downed but as with all Biotics, you're not really meant to be lingering in front of enemy fire for prolonged periods anyway, so it's nice but not amazing.

Detailed Analysis of Modern Warfare 3 Multiplayer Reveal Trailer

I've just finished uploading the detailed analysis videos for the Modern Warfare 3 multiplayer reveal trailer that was released near the start of september. Aplogies for the delay but i've been quite busy with other things so i've only just recently finished the editing and rendering that was required.

If you watched the analysis of the Spec Ops trailer i did a few weeks back, it's pretty much of the same form, i screenshot what i think are the key scenes within the trailer and then i highlight the key parts with a box and discuss about said thing, adding my own thoughts and opinions.

You'll find that the analysis comprises of 4 roughly ten minute videos and all can be found on my YouTube channel, AcornVision (link provided below)...

Hope you enjoy them, Al.

I hope find them useful because i spent quite a bit of time getting them done. I'd appreciate any feedback and any answers to the numerous ponderings i mentioned during the videos :) Take care and enjoy, Al aka Sir_Alan_.

Site Delay. Please Visit The AcornVision Youtube Channels Instead.

It's taking me much longer to set up my website than i first thought and as a result i'm not yet able to publish it but i'm still very much active on my AcornVision youtube channels. So if you have any questions or just simply want to check out some of the latest film and game trailers or maybe you'd like to see some of my gaming clips, head on over there. Thanks for your support and patience, Alan.
