14-minute gameplay video of Mass Effect 3′s leaked beta shows off solo campaign

A closed beta for Mass Effect 3 was recently leaked on Xbox Live to those testing the Xbox Live dashboard update. While it’s now offline, the speedy folks who downloaded and played the beta still managed to videotape its single-player campaign.

Above is the first 14 minutes of that in action, showing off a Reaper invasion as well as three gameplay mode options: “Action Mode,” “Story Mode,” and “RPG Mode.” Apparently, these adjust the game’s difficulty and dialogue inputs, giving the player the option to have an experience that’s either more action-oriented, story-driven, or both.

Note that what you’re seeing in the above video is a ME 3′s non-final build, so there are some technical anomalies.

“We’d like to stress that the leaked code is in a rough, unfinished state and was not meant for public release,” BioWare’s Jesse Houston wrote on BioWare’s forums in response to the accidental leak of ME 3’s beta. “The content is not final, and is not reflective of the quality of the finished, polished game due for release on March 6, 2012 (March 9 in Europe).”

Let us compare the Battlefield 3 & Modern Warfare Launch trailers!

by Elias - on Oct 23rd 2011 - No Comments

With the launching of Battlefield 3 just hours from now and one lucky winner being announced tomorrow, we thought that the least we could do is compare the two launch trailers to see what’s best in our opinion. Looking through the votes on our Modern Battlefield contest it seems like most of our readers voted in favor of Modern Warfare 3.

Battlefield 3 Launch Trailer: Loser

After looking at the official trailer and playing the open beta for BF3 I can admit that Battlefield feels different. In the trailer you get to see some of the single player campaign action and being that this is probably going to be the most technological advanced of the series we’ll have to wait and see how the actual game feels. In the open beta we didn’t get to fly jets and that was one of the major problems of it’s predecessor controlling the jets and helicopter was a bit challenging. While looking at the trailer what sold us was the MH-6 Little Bird helicopters as it brought great memories of Desert Combat the mod for Battlefield 1942.

 

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 Trailer: Winner


What really sells a Call of Duty game is it’s incredibly awesome storyline and a perfect multi-player. The trailer below really blew us away and will probably do the same for you especially if you follow Modern Warfare. If we had to pick from the two trailer the winner in our opinion is the Modern Warfare 3 launch trailer. The only thing though is that with MW3 chances are that gamers will be disappointed, being that the story line will probably be very short.

 

In case you didn’t know if you are an email subscriber  or a Twitter follower you are automatically entered to win either of the games, so you might hear from us tomorrow if you won the current giveaway. The great thing about the contest is that you get to choose from the two and if you want Modern Warfare 3, well send you a copy of that’s released.

Battlefield 3 will come with two disks on the XBOX 360 version [Rumor]

by Elias - on Sep 5th 2011 - No Comments

One of the negative things of having an XBOX 360 beside having to pay for XBOX Live is the fact many high end games end up coming out with multiple disks. A new rumor has surfaced with a snapshot that suggests one disk for the Playstation 3 version and two for the 360. In our site it seems like we have more Modern Warfare fans that Battlefield as the voters continue to vote for MW3 in our sweepstakes giveaway. In defense of Battlefield 3 that whole franchise is much bigger in file size than that of Call of Duty. In Battlefield 3 you will get to fly helicopters and jets as well as drive armor vehicles in their huge maps and not to mention their using the new Frostbite 2 game engine.
