Jul 3, 2013MIght as well have given it 10..., my only qualms with it is that it's too damn short and after you master all the moves you may as well complete the game in an hour an half. Other than that it's a perfect synthesis of story, atmosphere, gameplay, graphics, music, sound design and what not. Superb.

Aug 7, 2013A horrible story line that fails to grab my attention, but what makes this game good is the superb, and fun gameplay.The combat is a little lacking, and the voice acting could be better.The graphics are really good for it's time.Overall the game could be better by providing a better storyline, and improving it's voice acting.

Jul 14, 2015The game is not complicated and very beautiful, walkthrough is quick and natural. Innovative gameplay, quality graphics and stylish music the main ingredients for success. Uninteresting storyline somewhat disappointing, but still played well. Overall Mirror`s Edge, of course, not a revolution in the genre, but such projects refresh the gaming industry

Oct 26, 2013This is not a bad game. Actually, the first hours were nice. But once you've done all the different actions 20 times, you get bored. Then you realize that the game offers very little options and you have to follow a given path without much difficulty. You finish the story mode just in case there was a good story.

May 27, 2014Having sped my way across the rooftops trying my best to keep the momentum going in this outstanding and underrated game I think to myself "Why won't more people play games like this?" This game is stylish with great music and setting.

Apr 2, 2014Mirrors Edge is a pretty good Parcours Game with nice Graphics. The Design of the "white City" is awesome! I really enjoyed playing this game and i really recommend it!

Dec 13, 2015Scenario is quite bad, looks like from low-budget TV show, but gameplay and universe make it up. You definitely feel the dynamic of Faith's movements and you are often forced to take decisions very fast thus feeling of parkour is awesome. Cyberprep design is great and combination with soundtrack make you really feel that utopian atmosphere in the city.

Feb 23, 2018The journey told by Mirror's Edge is fast, stylish and exhilarating, unfortunately accompanied by some annoying disruptions that unintentionally break its flow.

Jun 10, 2014Un buen intento pero se queda corto a lo hora de conseguir el gran videojuego en primera persona de plataformas. Aún así es interesante probarlo ya que hay momentos de mecánicas y experiencias interesantes.

Oct 23, 2017'A' for originality. A very different game than the norm. Suprisingly enjoyable although quite short with little or no replayability. Good attempt at a novel concept. $5 bucket will give you good entertainment value.

Sep 18, 2019Fast paced chase mechanics, exploring the scenario , well thought feedback and well balanced levels. Worth the time for action immersive games

Jan 14, 2020Average game with a boring story. FPS free runner, parkour simulator. When you are in the middle of the action, that is very enyojable. I liked the city landscape. Nothing more, this is a correct game.

Feb 27, 2020The game is alright, but it centers around one idea that works well, but other gameplay aspects are mediocre

Aug 15, 2016This is one of the best EA Games. Graphics is very beatiful for 2009, awesome parkour, storyline is interesting, gameplay is funny and big city, you can fight with security and standard people. Game is very interesting and funny, I think this is one of the best game of 2008. Amazing Game, very good.

Jun 7, 2016Great everything pretty much with music, action and other stuff the only gripe I really have is the Combat and the story which is lacking at most but still 10/10

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.
