Mirror's Edge

[cbre88x]

I'm surprised no one has been talking about this game. It looks fantastic and looks to bring interesting mechanics to an FPS saturated market. We need some good first person adventure games..

Holy shit that's an awesome looking gun.

Anyways I'm really excited about mirror's edge but I have 2 concerns.  I really wanted it to be based on William Gibson's books.  Also Rhianna Pratchett is writing it which worries me.  I think she will probably be talented one day but she is very new to writing and needs to find her style.  It seems like she tries too hard to copy her father's from the other games she wrote (overlord, heavenly sword).

I want to be excited about it, but has there been any info aside from a couple of screenshots and that one trailer video? From that little bit it does look like a modern, first person Prince of Persia which could be cool. Really want to know more about it though.

I do like the pre order item you get though. If the quality of the bag is good I might just get it for that. Good bags are good.

I knew what it was even before I clicked it. :


Mirror's Edge looks really cool. I'm worried about the gameplay though. It seems like they're trying to make it accessible, I just hope there's more to do than pressing the forward key.

I'm sorry but that pic is just stupid.  I love tits as much as the next guy, but I prefer at least a semblence of realism in video games.  No one is going to go into battle with their boobs hanging out.

Well, they could be Flailing Boobs of Death.

It's going to be at E3 so we'll know more next week. The preorder bag does look nifty though.

Also, Gametrailers did an analysis on the trailer that gives a few more small details. http://www.gametrailers.com/player/34018.html

The writer is not news, unless over 2 months ago is new in which case I guess we could call it news.

[cbre88x]

No, but the tidbit of backstory is. People are saying it's cliche, but it is all about presentation and it looks like this game will nail it on the head.
