    Mirror's Edge is AWESOME!

    I just got the demo on PSN yesterday, and really... its the most interestingly worked out concept in a while..

    I had so much fun playing the demo and I think I might just get the game tomorrow in Gamestation me thinks..

    The demo had such a deep drill into my interest! not to mention Lisa Liskovsky's theme song is just great too
    Me want Ultrabook

    i thought it was awesome as well, but then i thought maybe a whole game of it might not be as interesting... so im going to wait a bit before i decide.. and im broke which helps the decision.

    Guess I'm the only one who found it a little dull?
    Very interesting concept but wore a little thin by the end of the demo on me, combat is awful & I realise the 'idea' is to avoid it but sometimes you can't & it seems the slo-mo was implemented specifically due to this.

    That 2D game is pretty well thought out

    Re: Mirror's Edge is AWESOME!

    I actually really loved this, but I bought a million games lately so I'm gonna wait till I complete a few methinks. I just love the way on the game you can do pretty complex things without having to memorize any complex button combinations

    Re: Mirror's Edge is AWESOME!

    Bought it on Sunday - really enjoying it, but it's really frustrating! This is the first game where I've nearly thrown a controller at a wall!

    Very unforgiving, but that's what keeps bringing me back for more, especially since I'm trying to clock it without firing a single shot. Top stuff!

    Re: Mirror's Edge is AWESOME!

    Some friends have said that the game is quite short and its worth just getting a weeks rental to play it in...

    I have been waiting for this game for a long time now and should be buying it soon as im getting through on GoW2 now that i finally have had a chance to play it, so am still considering buying it.


    Is it worth the £40?

    up to 5 shots will be required to finish the game, assuming your aim is good

    none of those at people though (which is what the achievement demands)
