Daaave Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 White red and blue a lot better than the nice shade of brown and grey everything seems to be these days to be honest. This game looks all kinds of awesome as well from the previews. I fully expect it to turn out rubbish. Pessimism ftw \o/ Just because you're a bit thinner than your even fatter mum it doesn't mean you're in excellent physical shape, if you could fit through the door and view the normal people you'd notice that cheeseburger boy. Squid suck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Llyranor Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 This game is looking pretty good from a game design perspective. Good potential there. Heh, if you preorder from Gamestop, you can get Faith's yellow carrier bag. (Approved by Fio, so feel free to use it) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spider Posted July 10, 2008 Author Share Posted July 10, 2008 I love the art direction. The whole idea is that society is supposed to be utopian in it's nature. And for me the color scheme fits fairly well with that vision. A clean safe city. I'd hate living there though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newc0253 Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 (edited) A clean safe city. I'd hate living there though... yes, i much prefer where i live in south east london, with the poverty and the drugs and the knife crime. it's so refreshing.

Moatilliatta Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 Do you guys like the art direction in that trailer? I think it looks horrible! Everything is white, red or blue. Since when do we build an entire society utilizing only three colours? I don't know, it just looks bad to me. Off-puttingly bad. I think the gameplay looks a lot nicer than the art, that's for sure. I believe the idea behind using few very well defined colours in very well defined ways (rectangles etc.) is to mirror the politics of the city. This is one of the few games where I like bright colours as it fits the theme of the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spider Posted July 16, 2008 Author Share Posted July 16, 2008 (edited) I want to play this game so bad... The more I see of it the more I'm falling in love. Edit: One of the things I like the most is how the developers are so confident in their gameplay that they don't bother with cool cinematics in their trailers. All we get to see is gameplay excerpts (edited in a snazzy way of course) and they seem to think that'll be enough. And for me, it clearly is.

Tale Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 I'm looking forward to it. EA is weakening my boycott. Well, they did that with C&C3. I think I should make it only an "attempted avoidance if other games are out worth buying." "Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater."

Xard Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 "simple" Batlefield games? BF1942 is best blind purchase of my life DICE rocks, even though they're swedes How can it be a no ob build.

Deadly_Nightshade Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 Yeah, even in my un-upgraded state -something that will soon change- I meet and beat the minimum. "Geez.

Calax Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 No surprise, doesn't look very demanding. Although... For minimum requirements, these aren't very low. maybe it's because they have to be able to identify routes with the red in order for you to keep moving and then have extra textures should you choose to switch off the red stuff? I'm reaching I know. Mirrors edge looks awesome. Victor of the 5 year fan fic competition! Kevin Butler will awesome your face off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morgoth Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 Official release date for Mirror's Edge is November 14th, with demos coming out next week September 26th. Click PC users, as usual, get screwed by not getting a demo next week, and having to wait for the full version a bit longer. Rain makes everything better.

Zoma Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 Official Mirror's Edge theme, "Still Alive" by Lisa Miskovsky is out and leaked even somewhere in the internet. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dO5CD6Yv8a4 The song's not bad. I like both vocal and non-vocal version basing from what I heard and compared. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
