Mirrors Edge

I've been wondering why this came become so cheap so quickly, is it a really aweful game? :D Or is it worth trying?

It's not a very long game, but it's interesting enough to play - I certainly enjoyed it. I think I'd have been annoyed if I paid full-price for it, but at roughly €15 it's well worth a look - it's kind of a first person platformer really.

I have played Mirror's Edge, but quit the game quite quickly. I thought it was rather repetitive more than anything else. But seeing as it's cheap for its quality - so to say - I'd say you should give it a try and see for yourself.

I paid £40 for that game.
Yeah ...

I really dislike the fact that you have to run away from the people attacking you.
I prefer to go in guns blazing y'know.

I mean, yeah, sure you can kick them in the face, nick their gun and shoot them with it which has a certain appeal but ... ahhh.
£40 wasted to be honest.

Yeah it's like £4 now at Gamestation I saw the other day.
Was totally gutted about that haha.
I've sent it down to my friend in England though 'cause he'd put it to better use than it collecting dust in my room.

This is one of my FAVORITE FPS games! I loved the fact you had to flee from your enemies the entire time. It made the game more intense instead of just shooting everything and be like "Oh, I have nothing to worry about I just sprayed bullets at everything." I mean, sure you can do that but it makes the game way too easy.

Since this a parkour game, shooting everything wasn't important, you had to find the fastest and most creative ways to get away from the bad guys. I thought it was unique that it was in first person and did it very well. Loved the story, loved the graphics, gameplay, music, EVERYTHING! Except the length of the game, it was WAYYY too short.

Same as the above. I loved this game. The first hour or so isn't too great, but once you start to pick it up a bit it really becomes one of the most fluid and smooth gaming experiences I've had. I was disappointed as all buggery when it ended and I would buy a similar title in an instant.

@G O: repetitive in gaming is somewhat of a bias subject in that virtually every game consists of going through the same motions in a variety of contexts and situations--from the move, point, shoot of FPS games to the back and forth of sports titles it's all repetitive. But I suppose this is a whole 'nother can of worms.

@Steph: £40? Sheesh. For that I can see why you'd be disappointed with the length. But if you don't like the lack of combat focus... I have to wonder why you picked it up for such a high cost?
