Because it's not really made for extensive SP! Socom is the better choice for SP, can't really compare

They are both based on the same principle tbh mp primary and sp secondary, just that even the 8/10 scores for brink say the sp is ridiculously hard on even the easiest setting...

exactly and like people have said..LA noire is out next week as well! so if its a stinker theres something out straight away to tide me over!

then again myself and friends and getting plenty of fun out co-op fun out of red river and people thought that was pap
 
I still want this but the review scores are scaring off most of my freinds list (the ones who dont exclusivly play blops anyway)

\im going to trade in some games (*somethign i dont normally do) but i dumping homefront and bulletstorm so with a bit of luck that will nearly cover this. maybe ill dump some of thew other buggy releases of late, im sure this cant be any worse.
 
Why are you wasting your money on this?? IT'S AN EPIC TURKEY!


360 version and it's horrible!


Honestly some of you have more money than sense!

MP4 - Why it's awful just don't bother and re-play mirrors edge for a week until L.A. is out

Looks complete rubbish in its current form. Lag issues aside it looks bland and boring. Not on my to buy list - even further away from it now! :/
 
I am guessing lag is responsible for most of the issue that guy in the vid had.

OK, it may not be pretty, but if they can fix the lag issues, which most games developers can do, then I don't see what could be so awful about it.

Having said that, am actually considering Halo Reach over this :)

don't own mirrors edge any more :P Mates at work are buying it and a few patches etc it might turn out to be a good game.


L.A isnt my kinda game

Difficult to review it when it's like that most of it comes across as butt hurt. It will be a shame if they can't sort it as it looked interesting.
 
Well, about 2.30 in to that video he gets an achievement for reviving himself.... to me that kinda suggests he hasn't actually played it that much. Something like that you'd think you'd get pretty early on.

Again, it just looks like server issues and won't be basing my decision on one guy's video of a laggy game.

everybody has their own opinion on games, and I for one am wanting to play it before forming mine.....loads of peopel slagged of red river a couple of weeks ago but we have thoroughly enjoyed playing it in co-op
 
Really not sure about this now.... Was excited about it when I heard Post-Apoc, RPG meets Mirrors Edge.... But it just looks like a TF2 clone with next to no story...
