also, look at www.on-mirrors-edge.com ... under the screenshot section, under miscellanious... some of those pics look abit portal-ish?

imagine... doing somersaults though portals... oh well maybe one day...

that sure as hell looks like portal. also, it has man-hands, so it was probably part of the concept prototype.

and then there's this...

From the first screenshots and movies I saw it reminded me of Portal, but that didn't temper my enthousiasm at all. I want this game bad, I only hope it's not as short as Portal, that would be a bummer, since Portal was quite easy and could be completed in a matter of hours, even the "harder challenge" rooms were pretty easy imho.

Can't wait for the 360 release. :-)

Thank you!

I really like the song, I think I will have to purchase the OST when it comes out.

first time i heard the song with vocals. sounds great. the instrumental with gameplay is equally as great

Seems Youtube are removing all the Mirrors Edge videos pretty swiftly not seen much of this game in motion, hope it's as good as everyone is saying :D

here are all of the Mirror's Edge videos you'll need

Yeah, Assasin's Creed.

This looks like the kind of game where everyone can play and feel cool n good at it, even if they're a beginner.

That's always a good sign.

not really

i hope it takes some skill to do stuff rather than in AC where its just hold down a trigger and you can do anything

I just played it on PS3, and wow. It is a great game, it is as good as it looks. Although some parts are hard to figure out, especially the last scene on the demo after the SWAT team shows up on the roof, you would never think that you would have to jump to hang off the rail of the chopper!

Really a nice game, as long as it is not repetitive, it will be a nice game. Although I don't think it is worth full game price, but let's see.. Get the demo on PSN!

What the heck is with that Portal video at the top of this page? The map is identical to that first level of Mirrors Edge..?!

"Sitting at my computer one day, I decided I should make a map in Hammer for the first time in a while. However, I had no inspiration until I saw the magnificent trailer for Mirror's Edge.

I decided I would try to make a copy of the level they showed at E3 in Hammer.

Yes, I'll release it when it's done. I might try and make it into a CSS map just for laughs."

    • Google reshuffles its AI coding team as it struggles to catch Anthropic

      By +Edouard · Posted

      I'm so conflicted with the Google Search AI summaries. On one hand I don't like how it's harming smaller websites by greatly reducing traffic which will harm us all in the long run but on the other hand those AI summaries often give me the information I'm after. I have never once clicked on 'show me more' though and never will.

      Not a single company as small or large it may be is obligated to subsidize its products and sell them at a loss. Your way of thinking is socialist and as a West German with a German brother state but impoverished by state dictatorship and a socialist command economy situated to the East i can tell you - this kind of thinking very quickly leads to products not being produced anymore at all. EDIT: That does not mean that I find state support for social needs unreasonable. Quite the contrary. Together with solid workers' rights we exactly had exactly that in Germany for decades in the form of the Sozialstaat which was as the scandinavian social democratic very successful - until the number of people who drew from those resources dramatically increased (ironically a project of social democrat and green proponents).
    • Apple reportedly has a second-generation iPhone Fold planned for 2027

      By Hamid Ganji · Posted

      Apple reportedly has a second-generation iPhone Fold planned for 2027 by Hamid Ganji The iPhone Fold is one of the most anticipated tech products expected to debut this fall. It will be Apple’s first foldable iPhone, ushering in a new product category for the company. While the first generation has yet to hit the shelves, a new leak suggests Apple has already begun work on its successor. Chinese leaker Digital Chat Station claims that the second-generation iPhone Fold has already been confirmed, meaning Apple could launch a successor in fall 2027. The foldable iPhone is also reportedly referred to as the “iPhone Ultra,” though it remains unclear whether Apple will ultimately choose that branding, especially as Samsung is rumored to rename the Galaxy Z Fold 8 as the Galaxy Z Fold Ultra this year. The leaker also claims that the second-generation foldable will feature a wider folding display while reusing the same screen found in the first generation. Apple’s first foldable iPhone is expected to feature a 7.8-inch inner display and a 5.3-inch outer screen in a passport-style form factor. It has already been reported that Apple plans to change its iPhone release cycle in 2026 to spread launches throughout the year. Under this strategy, the iPhone Fold is expected to debut this fall alongside the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max. The standard iPhone 18 and iPhone Air 2 are expected to arrive later in 2026 or in early 2027. Speaking of the iPhone Air, Digital Chat Station says Apple remains undecided about a third-generation model. The company is reportedly waiting to see how the iPhone Air 2 performs in the market, and if sales disappoint, a successor may never materialize. As we reported this week, the iPhone Air has not been scrapped from Apple’s plans. The second-generation model is reportedly scheduled for spring 2027 and could introduce upgrades such as an additional rear camera for ultrawide photography and improved battery life.
