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."

      Too late for a slightly older computer I had that didn't meet the hardware requirements for Windows 11 but had great hardware. I installed ubuntu on that thing and gave to a friend's kid.
