So, at E3 the next Mirror's Edge was announced, complete with a trailer!

Anyone else as excited as I am!?

If this is next-gen it'll make me buy a PS4, together with Beyond Good and Evil 2. My PC will never be able to handle either and I don't see the point in upgrading my PC.

I never forgave the game for cheating me out of one of the harder achievements.

I went through the whole thing without shooting ANYONE, but no DICE...

Anyway, I hope they have overhauled the combat system, because most of the time it just wasn't worth bothering to stand and fight.

Is this for xbox one?

This is probably the only game I'm genuinely excited for from E3 this year.

EDIT: Actually, tell a lie, I forgot about Watch Dogs. :p

And I am so glad they're not neglecting the PC (along with the PS3 and 360, where I have a copy of the first Mirror's Edge on both of those platforms), so I won't miss out on it. :D

I have the first game but I haven't beat it yet. I was stuck in one of the early levels and I uninstalled it out of frustration. I'll most likely reinstall it before the end of the summer because this trailer reminded me of the fun I had. At first, I thought it was a sequel and then I read reports of it being a reboot. It's actually a prequel that deals with the origins of the main character. And this time around, it'll be powered by Frostbite 3 (the first game is powered by Unreal Engine 3).

    • Google are hyprocrites for signing this. They have been pulling the same dirty tactics as Microsoft, only they do it on Android and ChromeOS.
    • In some countries the law has forced Microsoft to display a menu on a fresh install of Windows which asks which web browser you want and it will install that browser. This doesn't add any bloat to Windows. It simply an additional step when setting up a new PC.
    • Chrome is also a first party browser on Android and ChromeOS. And on those systems, Google is pulling the same dirty tactics as Microsoft does on Windows.
    • Unofficial script lets you install unreleased Windows 11 features without Microsoft Account by Sayan Sen Microsoft has been steadily evolving the Windows Insider Program over the years, introducing new channels and testing paths that allow enthusiasts to experience upcoming and yet-to-be-released Windows features (some interesting hidden ones too) before they reach the public. However, one long-standing requirement has remained largely unchanged as users are generally expected to enroll in the Program and with a Microsoft account. That's where a third-party tool called "OfflineInsiderEnroll" can help. OfflineInsiderEnroll is said to be a lightweight script that enables access to Windows Insider Program builds on systems that are not signed in with a Microsoft account. Essentially the tool configures the necessary Insider settings locally and hence allows users to select and switch between available preview channels while continuing to receive builds through the normal Windows Update channel. If you are wondering how it manages to do so, it is made possible by a Registry value known as TestFlags. When configured to"0x20", Windows stops communicating with Microsoft's online Insider enrollment services thus preventing locally configured Insider settings from being overwritten. This allows the script to apply its own channel configuration directly through the Registry as Windows Update does not verify whether a device has been officially enrolled in the Insider Program or not. Previously the utility has had already supported the traditional Insider branches including Dev, Beta, and Release Preview. However following Microsoft’s recent restructuring of its preview channels, the script has now been updated. The latest OfflineInsiderEnroll version, 2.6.6, adds support for the newly introduced Insider channel lineup. As such, users can now choose from several Experimental channels in addition to Beta and Release Preview options. The update also retains tools for refreshing the Insider cache, resetting Insider settings, and completely stopping Insider enrollment when needed. Keep in mind though that will need elevated privileges when running the script (run as Admin). You can get the latest version of OfflineInsiderEnroll from this page on its official GitHub repo.
    • The "Classic" Outlook has done that for a few years as well. The option to even change that is really hidden away too... It really shouldn't be hard to respect user defaults. Sadly we are the product now, not Outlook. To change in the Classic Outlook: File > Options > Advanced > change "Open hyperlinks from Outlook in"
