    The parkour game with an asian chick. That one was something, even today the gameplay is pretty fluid. It is a little bit on the short side, but definitely worth playing.

    The game is quite short, but it sure hell is an experience. The feel of the flow when clearing levels is something I hadnt seen until neon white and the atmosphere makes you feel like you are a little ant in this huge futuristic world, where the only things you can trust are the legs you are running with.

    Как по мне лучшие паркур механики, в этом игре где 70% это паркур, 15% сюжета ( с мультиками ) и 15% экшен шутер ( битвы с боссами ).

    Графика до сих пор на уровне, приятно смотрится и играется, за исключением одного досадного казуса ( в игре в разрешении 4к, текст в меню становится пиксельным )

    Игра разделена на 9 глав, введение и обучение, прошел за 7 часов, но так же для тех кто не наигрался, присутствуют челленджи такие как прохождение на время уровней и т.д

    Шутерная механика тут второстепенная, и вообще по сути не нужна, в xbox 360 даже достижение есть пройдите без убийств, и да можно, но получится чуть подольше, тут скорее приятнее вступать в битву с копами, и бить их оружием им же по черепушке, но нужен скилл)

    Паркурная механика тут на высоте, и чтоб игрок не запутался так как перед разработчиками стояла задача, чтоб игра не превращалась в игру где человек 7 раз подумает 1 прыгнет, а экшен, погодя, прям на ходу прыгает по крышам зданий.

    На сложностях кроме сложного ( который открывается после прохождение игры, что правильно ), подсвечиваются места за которые можно зацепиться, и взаимодействовать, и ведь хорошо вплели, не выбивается из стилистики=), и есть немного баги или неприятные моменты ( бывает я долго тупил на 3 моментах, где я делал все правильно, но персонаж не цеплялся, а потом на 10 попытке, все получалось ) вообщем бывает и пропуск на "пробел" итога скипал катсцены и ползунок диалогов на не затрагивает громкость мультиков.

    И напоследок, музыка в конце запала в душу, и просто отличный саундтрек в игре

    В конце дают знать, что задел на продолжение есть, а собственно продолжение нет ( catalyst ремейк )    … Expand

    All the good reviews are from 2009, I suppose that for the time it was good, it has aged like milk.

    This game has a generic storyline, and a few bugs. But it is an example in gameplay, it is very cool and well done, it is playable on the controller (I played and played through the ps3) the combat is cool and challenging, the movement works well, the parkour works well. This is just my opinion

    This game is an amazing anomaly that probably shouldn't have worked as well as it did. The atmosphere of the game is amazing, and while it took me a little while to grasp the story, it was extremely satisfying once I did. I highly recommend this game to anyone looking for a fun and unique game that can be found for less than $5 at certain stores

    I was really disappointed by the way the gameplay felt. In theory it is a great idea to make a cool First Person View parkour game but in reality the fact you miss all the airines and thus beauty of your movements kill the whole point of parkour - instead all what you see is a trebling image before your eyes and the most "exciting" thing for you is to make a somersault on your landing.I was really disappointed by the way the gameplay felt.

Maybe they should try make the game in 3rd Person or at least show you your most insane tricks in cinematography-mode clips (like in GTA for example when you send your car in the air). Also it is obvious "Mirrors Edge" was trying to be some sort of a puzzle but in my opinion it didn't succeed in this direction either: you could just turn off your brain and just run and jump in all possible directions and sooner or later you would "solve" the puzzle - not exactly what I would imagine a puzzle-like game to be played like. Everything else is pretty much quite good - especially I appreciate the visual style and the overall graphics quality - even after 12 years the game looks unbelievably good.… Expand

Gameplay is the central point of 'Mirror's Edge'. I needed some time to get used to the controls but once you manage to master it the game opens its arms. You are free to accomplish an impressive number of varied movements to get to your objectives. The feeling of speed is incredible thanks to the FPS forced view. In each level you have the choice to use the way you want, you have to choose to fight or flee. The feeling of vertigo is also brilliant since the roofs looks so realistic and pleasant to run on. You can change the difficulty of the game and if you want it to highlight the spots you have to cross or not. There are really few loading screens because the developers had the decency to make levels load while you are using elevators and other natural transitions. Ennemies quickly become repetitve and a bit boring but always bring some more intensity. There however are some moments when you realize it is impossible for your character to survive some falls if she is truly human. But the game goes on.

Вместо того, чтобы отметить мне точкой место, куда нужно добраться, мне нужно во время бега зажимать alt, после чего моя камера сделает тройное сальто, развернёт меня на миллион градусов, и я упаду в какую-нибудь жопу потому, что всё это происходило во время бега, я пытался понять куда нужно идти, а параллельно в меня стреляют куча снайперов.
    2). Боёвка вообще непонятно для чего тут нужна. Мы играем за БЕГУЩЕГО, который любую стычку с полицией может просто избежать(что я и старался сделать) . Тут от силы 2-3, момента, где тебя насильно заставляют с кем-то драться. Так почему нельзя просто показать этот ваш сраный мультик, где Фейт надирает жопу плохому парню, а не заставлять меня пользоваться этим убожеством? Боёвка отвратительна и именно для этого была добавлена возможность замедлять время.
    3). Дизайн тоже просто отвратный. Из-за того, что бежать вообще непонятно куда, разработчики решили сделать весь мир белым(даже траву и деревья), а объекты, с которыми можно взаимодействовать подсвечиваются красным. Вообще идея неплохая, но даже тут накосячили. Объекты подсвечиваются красным почти вплотную, а в одном моменте тебя вообще запускают в полностью красную комнату с кучей вооружённых болванчиков. Естественно я совершенно не понимаю, куда бежать, а всё, что меня говорят разработчики: "Ну туды". Также вообще не понимаю почему какие-то стены зелёные, какие-то синие, а какие-то оранжевые. Если с первыми двумя всё нормально(хотя реально непонятно на кой чёрт они их разукрасили, а траву с деревьями нет), то для меня, как для человека или тупого или просто дальтоника иногда сложно их отличить(может придирка).
    4). Про сюжет сказать ничего не могу. Просто куча парней захотели сделать игру про паркур, а потом к заданиям, где тебе нужно добежать от точки А до точки Б натянули сюжетные вставки и диалоги.

Though the best part no one seems to mention is the audio, with the music and sound design which work extremely well together (with memorable music tracks being the best part of the game really). Mirrors Edge is the finest (and one of the few) first person parkour games out there.

    Gameplay wise it is a first person puzzle, maze running parkour game spread out over 10 levels at about ‘15 to 25’ minutes apiece, depending on how long the puzzles take. There are also some combat sections (where you have to take down cops to continue and not get shot in the back) which certainly is the weakest part of the game, and are irritating at worst. After completing each level there is also time trials for each level, with competitive ghosts to race against. This extends the gameplay time out a bit. So I would highly recommend getting it on sale and try it out!

    Pros: Music, Levels, Parkour

    never in my life have I been so bored in a story that I've skipped the cutscenes. Luckily, the game makes up for it in the game-play. Admittedly, the game-play has aged quite poorly, but it's still fun to run around and parkour around too. I would recommend playing this game on hard mode for a more realistic experience. But, if you just want a fine experience play it on normal.

    Rated 3 because this game is extremely punishing, unhelpful and frustrating.
    It's a pity because the idea is original, the visuals are breath-taking, and the concept of parkour could be fun - and it is when it all goes well. But many times it doesn't: often you don't know what to do or where to go, sometimes you are followed by shooting cops, and you have to go by trial and error.

Add to this the frustrating checkpoint-only save system, and many times you have to repeat the same sequence over and over. It quickly turn from fun to agony.
    Compare this with a game like Warframe, where the parkour is well implemented and the game is forgiving your mistakes, and you might think ME's developer wanted to punish their players. Because in ME there's no way in hell you'll be forgiven: you either get everything right, or you cannot progress in the game, period. In my copy (bought on GOG), not even the cheat codes worked. No way, Jose: you have to suffer to the very least.
    After hours of frustration, I stopped playing ME at half game: I dislike not finishing a game, but ME had become the opposite of fun.    … Expand

However, going back to play Mirror's Edge, i was severely underwhelmed, here are some reasons why:

    -The combat. It is so clunky and frustrating and i don't understand why there are guns, i much prefer ME:C's style.

    -The Story. The story in Mirror's Edge is so boring and not interesting that it's best to just forget about it. People complained that ME:C's story was weak, and i agree to an extent, but this game takes weak story to a whole new level. There is no real explanation for anything that's happening or why you are doing things, other than the basic "Oh no your sister was framed, go break her out of jail."... TWICE.

    -The Movement: This games movement system is the main attraction for me here, and for the most part i think its alright. It is in no way as smooth as ME:C but I'll give it some slack because it was a new idea and it was 10 years ago. My main problem stems from towards the end of the game, there are enemies you have to run away from, but if they get close enough the camera will lock on to them, making it impossible to jump off ledges where you need to. This only happened to me once or twice, but it really ruined my experience.

    -The game is to short. It is just simply to short. Just as the story seems to be ramping up, game over.

    -The art-style: The art of the world around you in this game is bland. It is unique and i can understand that some people enjoy its simplicity, but i personally prefer the more colorful and themed world of ME:C.

    In fact, the only completely positive thing i have to say about this game is the soundtrack, its great. It's impactful, memorable and definitely fits the game.

    Overall the game is decent and was very good back in 2009, but it doesn't hold up and given the choice now, just get ME:C, it is vastly better despite mediocre reviews, will give you many more hours of fun, and its story is good enough for me.    … Expand

Gegen Mirror's Edge stinkt JEDES Third-Person-Jump-and-Run meilenweit ab. Mirror's Edge hat die Latte sehr hochgelegt. Das fängt an den perfekt eingefangenen Bewegungen mittels Motion-Capture-Verfahren, einem sehr guten Händchen für Pacing und eine Steuerung die ohne jeglichen Balast oder Behelfsmechaniken auskommt. Mirror's Edge ist zu hundert Prozent direktes Gameplay!

    Intuitiv, flüssig, schnell, immersiv. Es gibt keine Automatismen und genau deswegen fühlt sich das Bewegen und Meistern so belohnend an.

Aber… es gibt einige Spiele die sich der Steuerung und Fortbewegung ala Mirror’s Edge bedienen. Beispielsweise Dying Light – was es aber eher mittelmäßig umsetzt – schon viel besser wird der Geist Mirror’s Edge (zumindest was die geile Art der Fortbewegung angeht) von „Die young“ umgesetzt.

    The core of the game is running across rooftops and through buildings and construction sites, jumping around, often while running away from enemies. These sections can be pretty exciting early on, when they’re still fresh, but the game itself suffers from one major flaw:

    You see almost everything it has to offer by the end of the first level after the tutorial.

    The game has pretty limited variety, and there’s very little in the way of elements to mix up the parkouring elements. Thus, after just a few levels, the game starts to feel rather samey, with only one real element added to the game after the start – heck, the final leap of faith to a helicopter is done first in the first post-tutorial level.

    Sadly the game’s story is just as flimsy – while you’re introduced as a runner, someone who secretly acts as a courier for information in a post-futuristic police state, in the end this element basically is only made use of in the very first level. Instead, you spend the game doing a classic “rescue your family member and deal with those who wronged you” (mostly in cutscenes). Sadly, the characters in the game have little, well, character, so there’s little sense of connection to the character’s plight, care about the character you’re saving (the protagonist’s sister), care about your various allies and enemies (some of whom betray you and each other, pretty much pointlessly as you don’t really care about them to begin with), and a standard “corrupt politician bumping off his rivals and controlling the city” plot.

    All in all, meh.

    The only real bright spot are the graphics, which are clean and intuitive. While not amazing by modern standards, they still hold up reasonably well and don’t look ugly even in 2017, despite the game being nearly a decade old at this point.

    I beat the game in under four hours, though I didn’t go out of my way to collect collectibles; that being said, I felt no compelling reason to collect said collectables, which seemed pretty pointless anyway, as they just incremented a X/30 meter (I found six without much effort). And sadly, even at that length, it still felt too long for what it was. While the core idea is okay, the combat is meh, the story was meh, there weren’t enough twists and turns to the gameplay to keep it fresh, and there wasn’t enough environmental variety to make it really interesting.

    While it is vaguely intellectually interesting to see the game that made everyone want to include wall-running in their game, after an hour or so of gameplay you’d be well and done with it. My advice? Skip it and play something that made better use of these mechanics.    … Expand

    This game is fantastic and have a great potential! The parkour feel great and rewarding. I love the look of the city, It's unique and It's clean. It's still look pretty, even in 2016! My biggest concern are the combat, which is pretty limited and the guns aren't good and doesn't fit the character. Also, beware that this short. You can the campaign in 5 hours!

You can the campaign in 5 hours! You can collect the hidden bags and do speed run, but that pretty much it in terms of content. It's also linear. The story isn't interesting either. But for all his flaws, there only a handful of games that got parkour right like this, and for the price it is now, you should give it a shot, you won't regret it!… Expand

    Mastering the game's in-body platforming is an urgent thrill, beaten down less violently here under the auspices of our old friends keyboard and mouse, and stands out from the homogenised interfaces of modern first-person and platform games.

    The beautiful visuals look even better on the PC and the controls are smart and responsive. There are some flaws, though, in particular the short play time, some stiff level design and the overall potential for frustration. But if you manage to go with the flow, you will find Mirror's Edge to be a thrilling and unique gaming experience.

    While its elegant controls, visuals and audio weave a dreamlike tapestry that its animated cut-scenes do their best to eat away at, the whole is an experience you'd be remiss to let fly by if you missed it on consoles.
