    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.

    10/10. One of the best games of all time. Very challenging, but it is completely worth it. The storytelling is absolutely amazing. Not only but the pacing is genius. Thank you EA Games for blessing us with THE GREATEST PARKOUR GAME OF ALL TIME! The parkour doesn't make you feel like a speedy crackhead, but makes you feel human.

    The main character slows down at the start of the game and I can't make a jump because of it. At least the game's free.

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

    И скажу я вам, мне понравилось, как сюжет ( в конце даже было эпично ), так атмосфера антиутопии (даже я бы сказал не такая же она анти, скорее я бы хотел жить в таком чистом городе ), но хоть и на дворе 2110 вроде, а люди все те же, и я бы дал скорее что    Как по мне лучшие паркур механики, в этом игре где 70% это паркур, 15% сюжета ( с мультиками ) и 15% экшен шутер ( битвы с боссами ).

    И скажу я вам, мне понравилось, как сюжет ( в конце даже было эпично ), так атмосфера антиутопии (даже я бы сказал не такая же она анти, скорее я бы хотел жить в таком чистом городе ), но хоть и на дворе 2110 вроде, а люди все те же, и я бы дал скорее что это 2030, ну да ладно.

    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

    Amazing gameplay, with fantastic immersion and art choices. Modern in it's time and hasn't aged a bit.

    Good concept, good graphics but the combat system and the controls are just awful and frustrating. Not recommended.

    Mirror's Edge is a seriously cool game that will have you feeling like a total parkour pro as you race through a dystopian city, trying to outrun the forces of a totalitarian government. With fast-paced gameplay, stunning visuals, and challenging levels that will test your reflexes and problem-solving skills, this is definitely a game that's worth checking out if you're a fan ofMirror's Edge is a seriously cool game that will have you feeling like a total parkour pro as you race through a dystopian city, trying to outrun the forces of a totalitarian government.

    I've played a lot of bad games but this one has a lot of experience in this field, easily cracks the top 10 of my worst games list, game doesn't even run well.

    Totally outdated, Impossible to play on PC, full of bugs, it crashed my PC. I'm sorry but this didn't looked bad and it was decent probably more like a 5-6 but due to the tecnical problems I give it a 0

    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

    Even though some parts were glitchy, the game was still fun on PC. Though you should expect some frustrating level design at times.

    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

    This game is fun. The parkour is fun. The artstyle is beautiful. The story did not engage me at all so i skipped the cutscenes. It's a fun game that holds up well but it's really not that special in todays video game landscape

    One of the hottest titles in the late 2000s. Back then, the game with parkour elements was somewhat a new for me. Classic in it's best form.

    Поиграл 1,5 часа. Игра яркая, красочная, графика красивая. Игра совсем не нагружает мою видюху (на максималках в 144фпс всего 20% нагрузки). Геймплей быстрый, паркур неплохой. Очень раздражает управление (персонаж не всегда реагирует на клавиши, а иногда делает подкаты, хотя я просто жму w). Сеттинг мне не особо нравится. Сюжета как такового нет (что логично).

    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.
