So hard, Mass Effect 3 is going to be evil, I want to know what Tali looks like, but i love Jack's Attitude it makes he very desirable, and Miranda? No explination needed, hot as hell, Ashley is fit, but gets abit annoying. and basically, Garrus seems abit 'TO' friendly towards Shepherd, so Vegas seems like a bro. Hard choices... Legion is just a bad ass so cool
@spartanK42 There is a major called sequential art that covers concept art, along with storyboarding, comics, and a few other things. There are only a few schools that offer it (CalArts, SCAD, and RISD are the big ones), and they are all pretty expensive ($40,000+ a year), so I would recommend going to a cheaper community or technical college to get your core credits and then transfer to one of them.
There are probably other ways, too, but this is one very specific way. :)
well they better tell what are the meanings of the tattoo in a artbook or something or they are WORTHLESS. good to see femshep getting some love in a video from a concept artist.
Might i say sirs and ladies that it is an insult to say that the graphics in Mass Effect 2 arn't considered to be an art form. It must of taken ages just to get the character models up to halo 3 stndard never mind the Mass Effect 1 standard, but to graphically surpas Mass Effect 1 so much is an achiement (Bleep Bloop Acheivment unlocked 1000 GS)
Free energy technology exists!But the Establishment doesn't want ppl to know this,Go to LT-MAGNET-MOTORdotCOM and get the blueprints for a genuine magnet motor ,Let the revolution begin!
I don't think video games are art. If they do amount to such, then you're probably thinking about them only in a visual way. Aside from the visual and aural aspects of the game, a video game is highly technological. Parts of it is art and parts of it isn't.
@InternetLawman Not true. I understand what you are saying but aside from the visual and aural there is also the storytelling aspect (another art form) and apart from the storytelling aspect there is also the animation; animation is acting (another art form). Now while not all video games implement all these art forms and I kinda agree with you that while video games are highly technological and do not meet all the criteria for being called an art, some although not all, are definitely an art.
@PharoahsCorner A very compelling argument, but let's examine a car. High end car manufacturers produce vehicles which can be, and usually are, considered art by many. The car's superficial design is, let's say, brilliant and awe inspiring; in this instance, we, as many others do, admire the creativity and beauty of the car's shape. Do we marvel at it's technological wonder? No, because we cannot see it. And it is so video games are judged to be considered art. What we see is the art.
@InternetLawman We do not see the operational mechanisms behind either of their coverings: this is how I consider video games to be art, but not wholly so.
@InternetLawman Understood, but I'm thinking the technology under the hood can be viewed as some sort of mechanical art to many but then again im thinking that it would have to put together in an aesthetic fashion. Im just going out on a precarious ledge here so dont pay me much attention. Actually I was surprised u responded. LOL. Well anyway if i was to work on the video game industry most of my contributions would be artistic so thats why I like to think of video games as art.
@InternetLawman So I would like to think of video games as art because not many industries except the movie and comic industry have a place for artists that can and like to draw that type of stuff
What program/tech is this guy using, its amazing. For all the people that say video games aren't art by all means keep being ignorant and never know the truth.
i fascinated with these armors but i rather want a simple camo shirt and pants,a futuristic bullet-resistant vest/pads to make my Shepard more civilian-militaristic soldier...
But it looks so hard and time consuming. I'm not that great at drawing yet- hell, I can't even draw something like IronMan without making all the metal pieces look like crap and disformed. I suck at making things like that. I wish this guy was my art tutor. xD;;;
@SuPAdUpa132 No it (for the most part) does not require math. But I am sure that there is some a point and time that you do, but that might be for certain types of art. It all about the pencil miles, you just gotta draw draw draw draw :D
Why didn't they put all those helmet designs in the game? There's LOADS of drawings there but in the game theres only like ten. Including the simple visors and downloaded stuff.
@Eagle4Delta AGREED!!!! And the helmets all kind of look alike! How the hell does he keeps going without repeating a previously done one after like 50 helmets...!?
This game is amazing but it has alot of bugs... i always run into a bug which let me running in the air.. i can not come back to the floor and can not even run ... just stuck in the air >.<
@SuPAdUpa132 you need to create a portfolio with the best of your work, and then just apply to gamedev companies and hope they notice you. well, and you have to be awesome at drawing i guess
@SuPAdUpa132 you need to be able to convey a visual representation of a design and/or mood for use in games,comic books etc. While it is necessary to have the skills of a fine artist, you must be able to work to strict deadlines. Interpretation of ideas and how they are realised is one area you'll be judged on, and subject matter is often beyond their control
Of all of the iterations a helmets, they picked the silliest one for the DeathMask helmet. I wished they had put more of those concept helmets into the game to have more variation other than the N7 open and re-breather variant plus the dumb visor which I could have designed better.
specially female turians,i love asari but i wan to see another female species besides asari,human or quarian(but they dont count since u cant see there face)
I finished Mass Effect 2 on PC (playing on Veteran difficulty, with female shepard, Infiltrator class), and it was AMAZING. Even better than Mass Effect 1. This game is in my top 4 or 5 games ever. It's so good I actually felt emotion while playing it, and that's rare. I've been playing FPS games for 14-15 years, so I'm already desensitized to it.
I tried to do the programming and the art behind the game and it more difficult doing art than programming! Well it was certainly hard to do both at least. lol
@Denolc not true at all i currently attend full sail for Game art and i generally love art in games it shows all the effort they put int to present a great game
wow all those helmets and only 2 made in the game, plus one visor, the 3 other headgear pieces are Dr. Pepper promos, ya you can get em for free now but still, I would have loved to see more options for armor customization

SEND THIS TO 5 VIDEOS IN 143 MINUTES WHEN UR DONE PRESS F6 AND UR CRUSHES NAME WILL APPPEAR ON THE SCREEN BIG LETTERS. THIS IS SO SCARY CAUSE IT ACTUALLY WORKS THIS ACTUALLY WORKS
the only thing i absolutely HATE in this game is how the weapon range is sooo limited...you can find like 3? new assualt rifles and ect....liiike ok? same assault rifle gets boring...the upgrades are a great idea i love that part but the fact that you cant buy / find new weapons bugs me a bit..
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
More subtractions than additions and overall, a dissapointment. Tedious missions that don't impress, clunky combat that creates much aggravation, and a far less immersive story line that seems utterly unimportant in the Mass Effect universe, ME2 does not live up to its amazing predecessor. No mako, only two weapons per weapon class, limited armor customization, and boring as hell sometimes. Need I say more?
Wow great point. How could I argue with that? I'm sick of the simple gamers out there that have no mind of their own. Sure its a decent time passer but is it worth the 10/10 rating? Will it ever be nominated for Game of the Year? I can't think of one revolutionary thing about it. Not hating on it, just critiquing it. I play it frequently for the record.
@jmood88 i agree, but i like the original it's calm in a way, the second is more explosions and destruction, that's not a bad thing, i love the second game but the first one is my fav.
the subtractions from the game were the bad shooting mechanics of the 1st and cluttered inventory system, things i'm glad were thrown out the window. The new missions both primary and secondary were a vast improvement over the first, I hated how all the old side mission had you crawling through identical buildings with randomly placed boxes. The new side missions all differ greatly you never feel like you did the same job twice. Graphics, story, and combat all better too
Damn! He's one hell of an artist! I hope to be that good someday.
Got the game on the opening day. Totally worth it. I mean I thought the main plot could have been longer/more detailed, but all the characters are unique with lots of effort put into their backstories, and I find that I spend a lot of time just lounging around the Normandy to talk to them. xD Not to mention that the shooting's a lot more challenging (though I wished it was less linear).
mass effect games have alot of replay value, you never play the same game unless you remember what you did the first run of the game. If you played the first one and did not like it well they thats your opinion don't say the game is gay since ME 1 got so many awards, one of them was best rpg.
ME1 was the best game i ever played and im not easily impressed,TRUST me n e 1 who is thinking of buying a game get ME1 then 2 its gonna take u on a journey u will neva forget!
What a bunch of losers. Making stupid comments as if you actually had a brain. But then again you must have more than the morons who pay a fortune to watch a football game they could never play. The real gamers are those that make thme not the idiots that cannot work it out. Losers.
No se dejen distraer la humanidad esta en peligro gracias al proyecto definitivo. Corporaciones judias están retirando sus capitales de la industria para invertirlo en investigación, al menos eso es lo que ellos dicen, el plan es seguir vendiendo armas, terminar de vender el combustible contaminante, controlar el agua potable, manejar el clima y su ultimo y mas anhelado sueño vender el oxigeno, por eso contaminan y no permiten que hallan acuerdos para disminuir la contaminación
I can't believe I forgot about mass effect 1 all this time. I'm renting it out soon, but I might buy it if its good and has lots of replay value (same for Mass Effect 2. What do you all think? Worth buying or not? Bioshock was great, but hardly had any replay value because it was so linear, and I already picked the best ending (good ending), so I regret buying it. Same with Batman Arkham Asylum.
There's a bunch of 8 out of 10 and 9 out of 10 games that came out within the last year, and none of them were worth buying. IL 2 was shit, Batman has no replay value. Assasins Creed II was great, but I quickly got almost all the collectibles. Forza 3 gets boring after you unlock the high level cars, and Super Mario Bros for Wii was just plain old disappointing (bad level design). Borderlands sucked because it took too many bullets to kill even weak enemies (even head shots take many bullets)
I'm not saying its a bad game, I haven't tried it yet, I just don't want to spend 66 dollars again (sales tax is 10% where I live) on games that have absolutely no replay value. Most of the games I got or played in the last few years were only satisfying for a bout a week. GTA, Halo, and the CoD series were an exception though.
No, but I'm renting it soon, since it's going to make such a difference on the save files in the 2nd. The 1st one came out before I got my 360, so I kind of forgot about it. I didn't want to buy a used one for a rip-off price from Gamestop, so now that I got gamefly, I'm renting it.
I just finished playing the 360 version of Mass Effect 1 (played as female shepard, soldier class), and it was AMAZING! I was really impressed. This game is definitely in my top 20 ever. Also, I just bought Mass Effect 2 for the PC (because its cheaper, better graphics than 360, and the Mouse and Keyboard). I'll get back to you after a while.
@Joeybsmooth Yah same here. I can't play with a mouse and keyboard; it just doesn't feel right. I like to feel like I'm actually pulling the trigger lol.
I like to feel like I'm pulling the trigger too. You'd think bioware would think to allow an xbox 360 controller for the pc version. Maybe they will for ME3?
@mostliberal - ME1 is worth buying since it's cheap and it must be played through twice, just to explore both the Paragon & Renegade sides of your character.
I wonder if Bioware is going to put some d-wad on your ship,begging you to download some DLC like they did in Dragon Age Origins. Talk about money hungry.
At the end of the game, After you locate the Prothean (or Collector if you wish since they are now Reaper controlled) base in a black hole in the center of the galaxy where they take all the humans from the colonies (and your crew after the attack on the second Normandy) to.You use the Omega 4 Relay to reach the base.

@mh294m
First of all, you will need a drawing tablet.
Drawing tablets are generally divided in 2 groups:
-"normal" drawing tablets (based solely hand-eye coordination, meaning you draw on a tablet that is connected to your pc)
-monitor integrated drawing tablets (the kind of tablet the guy uses in this video)
But beware, the lcd tablets are significanctly more expensive (ranging between $500-$2000, whereas normal ones will cost only $50-200)
If you're going to buy one, I would recommend Wacom

@Denolc yeah! I agree. So unrecognized. -___-
I tried to do the programming and the art behind the game and it more difficult doing art than programming! Well it was certainly hard to do both at least. lol

the only thing i absolutely HATE in this game is how the weapon range is sooo limited...you can find like 3? new assualt rifles and ect....liiike ok? same assault rifle gets boring...the upgrades are a great idea i love that part but the fact that you cant buy / find new weapons bugs me a bit..

More subtractions than additions and overall, a dissapointment. Tedious missions that don't impress, clunky combat that creates much aggravation, and a far less immersive story line that seems utterly unimportant in the Mass Effect universe, ME2 does not live up to its amazing predecessor. No mako, only two weapons per weapon class, limited armor customization, and boring as hell sometimes. Need I say more?
DannySullivanRogers 2 years ago
lmao I don't know what game you've been playing, especially since you call the second's combat "clunky". It surpasses the original in every way.
jmood88 2 years ago 31
Wow great point. How could I argue with that? I'm sick of the simple gamers out there that have no mind of their own. Sure its a decent time passer but is it worth the 10/10 rating? Will it ever be nominated for Game of the Year? I can't think of one revolutionary thing about it. Not hating on it, just critiquing it. I play it frequently for the record.
DannySullivanRogers 2 years ago
@jmood88 i agree, but i like the original it's calm in a way, the second is more explosions and destruction, that's not a bad thing, i love the second game but the first one is my fav.

the subtractions from the game were the bad shooting mechanics of the 1st and cluttered inventory system, things i'm glad were thrown out the window. The new missions both primary and secondary were a vast improvement over the first, I hated how all the old side mission had you crawling through identical buildings with randomly placed boxes. The new side missions all differ greatly you never feel like you did the same job twice. Graphics, story, and combat all better too

Got the game on the opening day. Totally worth it. I mean I thought the main plot could have been longer/more detailed, but all the characters are unique with lots of effort put into their backstories, and I find that I spend a lot of time just lounging around the Normandy to talk to them. xD Not to mention that the shooting's a lot more challenging (though I wished it was less linear).

mass effect games have alot of replay value, you never play the same game unless you remember what you did the first run of the game. If you played the first one and did not like it well they thats your opinion don't say the game is gay since ME 1 got so many awards, one of them was best rpg.

I can't believe I forgot about mass effect 1 all this time. I'm renting it out soon, but I might buy it if its good and has lots of replay value (same for Mass Effect 2. What do you all think? Worth buying or not? Bioshock was great, but hardly had any replay value because it was so linear, and I already picked the best ending (good ending), so I regret buying it. Same with Batman Arkham Asylum.

turbooggyboy 2 years ago
There's a bunch of 8 out of 10 and 9 out of 10 games that came out within the last year, and none of them were worth buying. IL 2 was shit, Batman has no replay value. Assasins Creed II was great, but I quickly got almost all the collectibles. Forza 3 gets boring after you unlock the high level cars, and Super Mario Bros for Wii was just plain old disappointing (bad level design). Borderlands sucked because it took too many bullets to kill even weak enemies (even head shots take many bullets)

I'm not saying its a bad game, I haven't tried it yet, I just don't want to spend 66 dollars again (sales tax is 10% where I live) on games that have absolutely no replay value. Most of the games I got or played in the last few years were only satisfying for a bout a week. GTA, Halo, and the CoD series were an exception though.
mostliberal 2 years ago
Have you played the first one
Azael1991 2 years ago
No, but I'm renting it soon, since it's going to make such a difference on the save files in the 2nd. The 1st one came out before I got my 360, so I kind of forgot about it. I didn't want to buy a used one for a rip-off price from Gamestop, so now that I got gamefly, I'm renting it.
mostliberal 2 years ago
yes do that. try and finish every side mission, dont download mass effect 1 dlc (not worth it).

I just finished playing the 360 version of Mass Effect 1 (played as female shepard, soldier class), and it was AMAZING! I was really impressed. This game is definitely in my top 20 ever. Also, I just bought Mass Effect 2 for the PC (because its cheaper, better graphics than 360, and the Mouse and Keyboard). I'll get back to you after a while.
mostliberal 2 years ago
I did it the other way around , I just can not get behind the mouse and keyboard . Can you use the control with ME 2 on the PC.

Maybe with a mod. There's no controller input option in the Menu.

At the end of the game, After you locate the Prothean (or Collector if you wish since they are now Reaper controlled) base in a black hole in the center of the galaxy where they take all the humans from the colonies (and your crew after the attack on the second Normandy) to.You use the Omega 4 Relay to reach the base.
