    MIght 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.

There is almost no kind of error or lack of something. It is simply magnificent, the game. Much love to do Mirror's Edge 2 in the future. But as I say, is incredibly EPIC GAME!… Expand

They feel like they don't belong or are unfinished concepts, and they really go against the otherwise visually impressive game.

    The game plays pretty magnificently, though not without issue. Platforming is hit or miss, especially when you are required to jump precisely between points. This isn't a shooter, and elements that push you to use guns only shows all too well that Faith, the game's protagonist, isn't Rambo. She's a runner, and that's where this game shines. The sense of agility and speed in this game is fantastic, nimbly skittering between crates or along rooftops feels so deeply rewarding and unlike anything else I've ever played. Skill and patience will be rewarded, and believe it or not trial and error and experimentation will be rewarded.

    This game is a challenge, it isn't for the meek, the ability to avoid violence is a welcome change from the normal "shoot everything that moves" kind of fare we see a lot in our games now. Barring a few pretty serious production and platforming issues, this game is a sweet experience I recommend to anyone that genuinely feels themselves skilled enough to take it on.    … Expand

    We step into the running shoes of Faith, a runner in this fast paced, acrobatic game, which is one of a kind. There aren't many games that combine the action adventure platforming with the first-person genre. The concept is well executed, too bad the game falls short in other areas.

There aren't many games that combine the action adventure platforming with the first-person genre. The concept is well executed, too bad the game falls short in other areas.

    In the unknown dystopian city, where crime virtually doesn't exists the Runners are the only ones that disturb the peace achieved by the totalitarian regime. It's a small group of anti-government individuals who can do one thing very well: run... and climb pipes and do acrobatic jumps, but that's (and committing crimes) part of the life style. Our protagonist is one of them, whose sister (a cop on top of that) is caught in political crossfire and arrested for the murder of the mayor candidate. From now on it's on Faith to discover the secrets that lie below the surface.

    Unfortunately there are no hearth stopping, breath taking moments in the story. It's pretty plain and simple, nothing we haven't seen somewhere else (1984 Orwell). Likewise the length and scope of the game doesn't allow the story to get to deeper levels. The game can be finished in a mere 4-5 hours. On the other hand the cartoony cut-scenes are a nice touch and the characters are believable thanks to the great voice acting.

    Mirror's Edge consists of 9 chapters. In every chapter you have to get from point A to point B to complete an objective. It doesn't get any deeper than that, but at least the time spent between the start and finish is fun. The controls are responsive and you can take alternate routes to get an advantage over the riot police or just to be quicker and more efficient. In almost every level there is at least 1 point where you'll find yourself dying in 10-15 seconds after the checkpoint loads. Over and over again until you find the correct route or you can execute your jumps perfectly. These parts are pains, but the most frustrating thing in the gameplay are the gunfights. It's simply not meant to be there. Disarming guards and policemen, then shooting others feels off balanced, weak, and frustrating over all.

    Faith's story has its flaws, but the game is at its best when you have to do what it's created for: platforming, wall running, jumping from pipe to pipe, rolling, sliding and so on. When you learn the levels and you become more proficient in spotting out the best routes it feels like you are a panther capable of anything. Unfortunately if you aren't in for the challenge of finding the best routes in each map there is not much else the in the game that could keep it installed on your computer for a long time. After finishing the story mode you can jump in and do some time trials, but as I said there isn't anything else beside that (if you don't count the bags which can be found in the story mode 30 in total).

    When I first learned about Mirror’s Edge, its basic premise of a first-ever first-person 3D parkour game, that you can outrun your enemies rather than outgun them, caught my attention immediately. Because in Mirror’s Edge, just as in many other games, you are set against an army of faceless, nameless, and merciless drones who are “just doing their jobs and following orders”. But in ME youWhen I first learned about Mirror’s Edge, its basic premise of a first-ever first-person 3D parkour game, that you can outrun your enemies rather than outgun them, caught my attention immediately. Because in Mirror’s Edge, just as in many other games, you are set against an army of faceless, nameless, and merciless drones who are “just doing their jobs and following orders”. But in ME you don't play as a dogged, cynical, serial killer ready to mow down everyone in their path, you play as Faith Connors, a young female runner with sharp wits and some sense of morality about her. I find it much cooler to disarm or knock down some of the policemen in order to flee the rest of them, rather than killing them in dozens.

    When I started playing, I was impressed by the clean-cut visuals and architecture of the City, which captured the futuristic dystopia flawlessly. The main part of the gameplay is running around parkour-style. While playing in first person, you can see your arms and legs and there’s a real sense of momentum, weight, and gravity. It is very rewarding to chain up multiple acrobatic moves to dash through the environment and over various obstacles quickly and seemingly effortlessly.

    Few words about sound; the voice acting is done very professionally for main characters and the psy-trance soundtrack provided by Solar Fields fits the gameplay just perfectly.

    Not everything in the game is this stellar though. The story campaign is quite short and kind of sloppy, with cut scenes done in cartoonish flash animation. The campaign is also a little too heavy on gunfight towards the end and overall does not carry a lot of replay value. I still mostly liked it but it must be said it is probably the weakest part of the game.

    But there’s the trial mode; you can race through various tracks in campaign maps with no enemies around, just against the time. Shaving off seconds and figuring out new paths from checkpoint to checkpoint for faster run-throughs kept me entertained for many hours after beating the game.

    In conclusion, I applaud the developers for taking the risk with this mostly uncharted game design territory and wish them best of luck with their new Mirror’s Edge game, which was announced in June 2013.    … Expand

    The 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

    This 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.

    Scenario 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.

However the lack of customization also works towards the game's favor. It allows the player to simply focus on moving forward and not have to worry about searching around every corner and making decisions. Another thing is the story, which is interesting at first, but in the end becomes a little too cliche.

El juego es corto. Compre el juego por 5 dolares pero cuando salio valía mucho mas y eso me inquieta, el juego dura de 4 a 7 horas como máximo. La historia es simple de hecho es promedio o mediocre. En un futuro no muy lejano la humanidad... pues esta igual pero la seguridad de la ciudad avanza a un punto que la gente casi no tiene privacidad en la calle, un grupo de gente protesta y pues matan a muchos, después de las protestas los que aun quieren la cuidad como solia ser contratan a "Corredores" una especie de mensajes que hacen parkour y entregan mensajes por dinero. A mi me interesaba eso de los corredores saber como operan como funciona y saber mas del mundo, sin embargo, al final todo se enfoca en una chica llamada Ege o algo así y su hermana fue secuestrada. Tienes que limpiar su nombre y eso es en lo que se enfoca el juego. Los personajes no están bien desarrollados de hecho seguro que se te olvidan rápido, no me interesan sus vidas para nada, el único que me llamo la atención es el que te ayuda por todo el juego. Aquí harás parkour por todas partes y esta bien echo aun que aveces falla, en ocasiones darás un salto bien pero el personaje no se agarrara a la pared donde debía sujetarse y morirás. Aun que debo admitir que es divertido, pero el combate es... no se, no es bueno pero casi malo, en el combate la detección fallara amenos que lo hagas 100% perfecto. Es difícil pelear y las balas parecen balines, no hay sangre, en este juego sangrar es de mala educación al igual que mover un cadáver. De echo no hay diferencia entre alguien muerto y alguien noqueado. Los niveles son muy muy lineales, no hay rutas alternas ni nada, tienes que ir directamente por un lugar te guste o no. Los gráficos son buenos de echo todo se ve muy similar, haz visto caricaturas y ves que hay cosas mas coloridas y detalladas que otras? pues bueno también sabes que lo no detallado no sirve, que no se moverá. En este juego todo tiene la misma calidad gráfica así que te hará usar la cabeza. Bueno eso solo si lo juegas en difícil, pero solo se puede desbloquear difícil después de jugar fácil o normal, entonces tu ya medio sabrás por donde ir y odio que no este libre la dificultad difícil desde el inicio, esa decisión fue simplemente estúpida. Y si juegas en normal el juego te dirá siempre por donde ir, !!pero no cuando de verdad necesitas ayuda!!. Hay una zona en donde debes ir están en rojo pero cuando estas en una habitación y tienes que salir no aparece el indicador rojo NUNCA. Es como si el juego te ayudara cuando no lo necesitas y nunca te ayudara cuando si lo necesitas. Aparte de las misiones de la historia principal no hay nada mas, hay un modo carrera pero es lo mismo pero con la excepción de un cronometro que te dice tu tiempo. Hay solo 1 coleccionables en todo el juego, maletines, el juego en steam no tiene logros así que al menos a mi no me dan ganas de re-jugarlo. Seguro suena que odio el juego, pero no es así. (solo algunas cosas que estuvieron mal hechas/pensadas) Puede que en el lejano 2009 esto fuera muy bueno, pero en el 2014 no es la gran cosa. la ultima cosa de que me quejo es el final. Es malo, no nos dicen que paso con que personajes, no dicen nada sobre por que este se volvió bueno/malo solo paso y listo, tal ves una secuela lo hubiera arreglado, pero no hay secuela después de 5 años de espera. A pesar de eso el parkour es exquisito, de no ser por lo extremadamente lineal del juego me darían ganas de volver a jugarlo por que de verdad el parkour esta bien hecho. Hay rumores de una suecuela en 2017, si es verdad, espero que hagan algo mejor. Le doy un 06/10 casi decente. (enfoque en "CASI")… Expand

Wer hat gesagt, dass Jump-and-Runs nicht in der Egosicht funktionieren würden? Mirror's Edge beweist eindrucksvoll das Gegenteil und hat einen Meilenstein gesetzt. 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.

    Leider haben nicht viele Spiele diese Art der Fortbewegung in Videospielen nicht mehr Spieleentwickler aufgenommen. 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.

    Mirror’s Edge ist ein kompaktes Erlebnis. Linear, aber nicht zu linear (es gibt stets alternative Wege) und ohne eine Sekunde Leerlauf.

    I never expected this story to be so much fun.
    You are a free running package deliverer being chased for information.

    The story is dynamic and fun, nothing like a regular game. You unravel a mystery that is haunting your character through the game.
    I really got dragged into the story, into the character and her emotions.

    Gameplay
    If you like free running, this is the game for you. I'd recommend this with mouse and keyboard, for it requires some fast response and turning.

    Although the par-course often is very clear, it can be very challenging (especially if you try to get the maximum score). You sometimes have to puzzle, sometimes you have to rush and sometimes you can go through on an easy pace.

    Graphics & Audio
    The graphics are great, it gives you a great feeling when running or falling really fast. Tutorial graphics and the red "help" flashes are very clear and implemented very well.

    This game gives you a great feeling overall, with audio matching the running and fighting.
    Creating tense moments when you are being chased and staying relaxed when you are just running around.

    Conclusion
    Overall this is a great game to play.
    I recommend this game because of it's great story and gameplay.
    The replay value is ok, if you are an achievement whore and want to get the fastest time on every map :).

    Wonderful and unforgettable game. Nice graphics and gameplay. Bright and colorful city. But story is...not enough for me, I wants more. But in 2009 this game looked awesome, so 9/10 from me.

    The game is meh, but thats only my biased opinion. The action is great except on a few tricky and hard to find locations, the combat is ok at best but the story is really bland ( just my opinion ). So if you want a good parkour simulator this is definitely a game for you but dont expect any WOOOW story moments because there are none here.

    I till this day cannot understand the flak that Mirrors Edge got when it released in 2007, or the problems people had with the story, which is fine for what it is (especially now that you can compare it to the reboot).

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

    Cons: AI, Combat    … 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. Weapons are horrible to control but I guess that it is the point of it.… Expand

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

    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.

    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

    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. Not only the parkour is amazing, but the gunplay is10/10. One of the best games of all time. Very challenging, but it is completely worth it. The storytelling is absolutely amazing.

    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.

    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.
