|
 |
Mirror’s Edge
| Code: | Developer: Digital Illusions CE
Publisher: Electronic Arts
Designer: Owen O'Brien (senior producer)
Engine: Frostbite Engine
Platforms: PC, Playstation 3, Xbox 360
Release date: TBA 2008
Genre: First-person shooter, Action-adventure
Mode: Singleplayer |
| Code: | The game concentrates on movement, and aims to expand and reinvent the sense of movement which is currently lacking from first-person games (in the words of senior producer Owen O'Brien, "to place you in the world and convey the strain and physical contact with the environment"). Although the player character can hold weapons, O'Brien stresses, "Principally, this is an action adventure. We're not positioning this as a shooter - the focus isn't on the gun, it's on the person."
Though set in seemingly utopian city environment with low crime and clean streets, the world is also one inhabited by an authoritarian government regime and unbridled levels of surveillance. In this world of communications monitoring, the only way to deliver confidential information between parties is to employ couriers (called runners) to physically deliver the information. The player character controls runner Faith, employing parkour inspired movements to reach her destination. Aside from Faith there are rumors of other potential characters to choose from. This information comes from one of the official site's administrators. |

It sounds and looks quite interesting... although those pics seem a bit too over bright.

I see that Parkour is becoming quiet the hit lately, i think that it's the 3rd parkour themed game for the xbox 360.

I just hope they don't dumb it down for release. They have set themselves too high, and might not actually achieve everything, but hopefully most of it will actually be in the final game.

still no in-game videos of this game, but it could be something else, which these days, counts.

Ok, my new job includes access to a lot of working builds so I played this one as well.
One comment: it's great for the first half then it gets impossibly frustrating when roof-jumping supercops are always on your toes. 7/10 I'd say.

I heard the game is trial and error based. True?

Yes, but that's why it saves every 5 sec.

Dunno, I've never replayed a storyline game unless it's Deus Ex, Fallout or NOLF

So it's just a week away from my cheap Silver ass! 
BTW, although I'm pretty excited about this game, I've got two great fears about it : linearity and longevity. I mean, from the teasers/trailers, it feels a bit like a "corridor" game (try and try and try a main path until you master it). As for the length of the game, I'm anxious about it to be ubber short (running like hell for like 10 hours or so???!? I doubt they can achieve that).
Anyway, I hope I'm wrong and they're keeping most of the content secret so we all can be pleased!  |
