As I was playing it I was yelling as much as ever, but that is the trial and error nature of the game, in hind sight I actually really enjoyed it.  The story was pretty cool and the style...well that has to be some of the best artwork/graphics/music I've seen in a game in a long time.  I don't mean to say the graphics are super realistic...they are...but beyond that they look really cool.  I'd even enjoyed just letting the game sit at the main menu taking in the music and visuals.  If I owned the game I'd  probably get this stuff.  I'm hoping the next game is a little more open, like Burnout Paradise...I think missions would be a lot funner if they didn't guide you so much, just told you to get to this point in the city from this point in a certain amount of time or something.

Mirror's Edge is by far the most disappointing game I've ever played.

I played through the main game and loved it a few months back. As cool as the levels look, I just can't find myself feeling the need to pick it back up right now. Who knows, maybe down the road I'll get it but not now.

-Yea, bought my copy for PC for like........ $34 :D (PC GAME PRICES ROX HARD).  This game will frustrate you like no tomorrow because the game breaks its own rules in order to stray you into the RIGHT path.  Example, some jump early on look so broken and yet you somehow make it alive.  Yet, later in the game, I simply could not make the most OBVIOUS of jumps just because I tried skipping a RED path and took a shorter distance.  When the game works, its great, When it doesn't, you feel like breakin the CD.  *I BROKE MY CD :D*

I still think that game is seriously underrated. I liked everything about it, the visuals, the music, the sound, the first-person platforming. I don't disagree with some of the knocks against it, but I still think it's superb. That being said, I can tell from watching the short trailer that I'd be completely lost in that maze.  I like the idea, but I'm already confused.

Got this pack for PS3 last night and it's very good. Such interesting and complex designs. I recently got my Platinum trophy so the timing is perfect. Such a phenomenal game and I truly feel sorry for those that don't "get it." Easily the 2nd best game of 08 behind MGS4.

Personally I really enjoyed this game, didnt get into the time trials too much, but thought the game itself was great.  Thought when I couldnt see how people got top times it was amazing to see the creativity to get them on you tube.  DEFINITELY not a 3rd person game, 1st person perspective is what makes this game great  BTW, I didnt find this game nearly as puzzling as other people, I never really found myself lost as to where to go for very long, just had to look all around and you would find something.

Despite being an old video, the comments to this killed my soul just a bit.


I can't help but like this game, despite how frustrating it may get in places.

That remix destroyed the ME theme song.  Bleh...

I grabbed this yesterday, looking forward to playing it.  The Time Trials by far are the best part of ME

This DLC really shows what the art style is all about, it's very striking.

Yeah, not sure why this video was put up gain, Ryan put it up as an article over a month ago, that was before this DLC was delayed to this month. I guess they just added the wrong launch trailer.

I think this looks better than what I saw in the demo, but it'd be a bit expensive to buy the game and this, just to get this.
I can imagine paying about 15 or 20 bucks for just this, and skip the story.

So I wasn't the only one tricked into thinking the song they were playing was "Hey Mickey!"

January??  Also - it was first person and I wouldn't have had it any other way.  I would have enjoyed it far less it was from 3rd person perspective.

Looks allright. I still think Mirros Edge should've been third person...

Looks ok. What I dont like is that they had to take the great instrumental theme and ruin it by adding  pop beats and vocals. Hopefully its just trailer music and wont be in the actual gameplay.

How about patching the PC version so that I can actually play it with sound? Seems like a common enough problem to warrant such.

Oh right, this is EA we're talking about. It's too bad, because I was actually interested in this game mostly for its artistic direction and reputably good soundtrack. So, yeah...

I already paid $60 for a horribly shallow and empty game. I am not paying another $10 for content that should have been on the disc. No thanks, EA.

     This seems like it might bring out the worst qualities of the game  (ie "run flow" hiccups).  I can see myself throwing a control or two over it.

It looks amazing. But I'm not sure how well those courses will read. We all can read reality to some degree or another- rights and lefts- tops and bottoms- stairs and windows. But the point of this map pack seems to be testing maze like breaking of said expectations.

When I first saw Mirror's edge, it reminded me of when I'm running in ridiculous dreams.  Did I just share that internationally?  Damn Capt. Morgans...
