Mirrors Edge: Is it worth 3.24?

Calabi · 1 Dec 2009 at 20:27

This probably aint the place to post this but Zeno Clash is priced at £3.7 something.

It definitely worth it for the wierdness, uniqueness and punchiness.

I've bought both Mirrors and Zeno and I've got no money.

I really enjoyed Mirrors Edge, but the one thing it lacks is an atmosphere. It feels like your running round the streets on a christmas day. No one around at all.

It's the first game i've played on pc with the 360 controller

Well,

1. That's because 90% of the game is in high security building or on rooftops.

2. That's because it's set in a utopia where the population are heavily controlled by corporations/government.

Thats where i am

I think we got to run along the wall then jump up at the ladder.

Spoiler for ladder bit described above:

Run straight up the wall directly opposite to the ladder. At top of jump, press Q to turn around and jump again, thus landing on the ladder.

loving the game so far. I've just passed that point in the screenshot

This thread made me install it again on Monday, showed the missus and she was all "ooooh, pretty!"

~>Dg<~ · 2 Dec 2009 at 16:13

thanks guys !

nearly done that whole section now just coming out the sewers :cool

Mr. Anderson · 2 Dec 2009 at 16:17

I've been enjoying it so far. I'm pretty rubbish at it. I think it would be a lot more fun if there wasn't any police.

The police aren't really a problem though (well...) There are only a few time where you actually have to fight them (and even then you don't)

Lol you should deffinately hold shift when your about to land from those big jumps to do a roll, also to slide under the stuff your crouching under

My first day too though so im kinda slow getting around and stringing all the bits together is going to take some doing.

SlyReaper · 2 Dec 2009 at 20:59

It's a lovely little game, but I'm getting performance issues when being chased by loads of mooks. Dropping all the graphics settings to low fixes it, but I want to play at high graphics levels. I had hoped a 4850 would be able to handle that? Even Crysis runs better when things get busy.
