Like everyone who saw the recently released trailer to EA DICE's first person free running game Mirror's Edge, I couldn't help feeling some excitement over having something different in their FPS's. Some FPS's like Half Life 2 feel like you're moving on conveyor and completely disconnected from the body. By the looks of the trailer it seems like you do have complete control over the main character's body while running on top of really high buildings. Hopefully they will be much more smoother control interface then Assassin's Creed; so many time I wanted to jump onto a ladder and ended up wall jumping back into the guards that were chasing me. Getting away from the expected gameplay, I hope that the story is something worth remembering because EA's last game which was Army of Two; despite having a interesting concept straight out of MGS4 (PMC's becoming the lead military force in the world) was really dispointing. Army of Two just ended being a Micheal Bay film where the two main character bickered with each other while saying incredibly stupid things.
Well let's hope that the game delievers what we saw from the trailer and doesn't suck.
Edit: I fix neck on the second drawing, trying to figure out anotomy (even a woman's figure) is tough stuff.
Two drawing that I did this weekend of the main character, Faith.
Here are some older piece that I did over the course of last year and this year.
Old Snake
I did this one year 2007 and lately I have been trying to get into the mood to some more MGS art. Also I missed out on the MGO beta, I'm going to pre-order Metal Gear Solid 4 a week before it's released.
Mario's Creed
I was just having fun this one, but I did manage to get both games when they came out back in November. However due to some weird shipping crap, I didn't get my copy of Assassin's Creed (the PS3 version) until 5 day's later when it was released. It was good game but nothing great, Mario Galaxy faired better but I still didn't beat the last boss yet.
PED suit Samus....
Despite not finishing or beating the last boss in MP1 or completely skipping past MP2, I really enjoyed the final game in the trilogy. The wii-mote controls felt natural and were easy to get used to.
Finally are any of you PS3 owners having a difficult time finding matches on GTA4, because I haven't seen a soul in any of the games lobbies. My PSN id is RmSkater.
*note: I could have gotten the 360 version but I can't afford LIVE at the moment and I was scared that the RRoD would hit at any moment.
Rather then copy and paste my blogs (something I shouldn't have done) to other places, I also post my artwork at several websites like Deviantart and Comicartfans.com. Art has been apart of life ever since I was five years old and that also the time I was introduced to videogames. My whole childhood consisted of drawing Mario, Sonic, Street Fighter and several other videogame characters. But in highschool I didn't bother with that stuff and really didn't do to much artwork during that time. However the last four year I started up again, and just last year I started posting my stuff onto the web.
Here is some artwork that I did after finishing The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess....
I was going to draw Ganon but I really couldn't find any good photo reference for him until Brawl came out.
Today just finished another one, Cyborg Raiden from Metal Gear Solid 4.....
When drawing I usually start off with 9h shade pencil while doing the pre-shape lines and some shading. After that is done I finish off with darker pencils from the regular HB to 8B; furthermore, if I want the piece to be a little darker I would use charcoal.
Right now I just post my artwork at several places but I don't sell anything or make money doing this. At first I thought "Maybe this will get me a job in the industry", but right now I just posting artwork for the fun of it.
