Hey guys, I've really been wanting to do some commentaries for Reach and I finally figured out how to do it (not very computer smart). Since I don't have any new games saved at the moment, I figured I'd do an old one.

Some of you have already seen the video, but if you would, please watch it again and critique the commentary. I want to do more and need to know what I could improve on commentary wise. And be straight with me, I'm a big boy and can take negative criticism...

You could sound a bit more enthusiastic. But I mean I can hear you clearly and understand you.

Good gameplay and insight though. I like how you explained why you knew you could body-shot that guy and still win the DMR duel.

Those are my first impressions.

Haha, I kinda knew this would be something someone said. After I finished the audio and listened to it, I was like, "Damn I sound depressed as hell."

And thank you for your input, much appreciated!

One thing you could do is use ZB MLG gametypes. Bloom-plagued gameplay is just not fun to watch.

But the commentary was pretty good.

Some snipers like to keep the reticle at head level and wait for the person to strafe into the head shot (while no scoping at close range). That might be why he was crouching. I like the first comment about adding a bit more enthusiasm into the commentary. It was on the dry side. Also, the video was terribly dark. Other than that it was fine.. I liked hearing your thoughts on the ninja combo.

My Youtube channel, i post Halo gameplays and clips. :)

I'm not really too much of a fan of commentaries where you explain what the viewers can already see.
Maybe try explaining why you're make certain decisions, why you decide to push toward 'there' for example. Or maybe talk about a topic. But for a first commentary it wasn't bad [:

And besides that, try to be more enthusiastic like the other guy said. I think maybe if you talked a little louder it would help.
