Mirror's Edge (Video Game)

Customer Review

Story:
Mirrors Edge is set in a futuristic metropolis in which everything and everyone is monitored. Only the so-called runner "errands against the system by transport documents and the like over the rooftops. This is frowned upon by the police, but tolerated ... to her one day in the role of Faith a dead mayor candidates in its office locates, along with her sister, who then at once the murder is appended But that's not all. During the test to prove the innocence of your sister, you will uncover a vast conspiracy.

Gameplay:
I have mentioned at the beginning: intensive, innovative and damn demanding ... exactly describes the gameplay of Mirrors Edge best. As Faith her sprinting in best Free Run-style over rooftops, through underground tunnels and winding corridors of buildings. The special feature is that you experience everything in the first person perspective. And that's the developers of Dice really well done: You really feel like in Faith's skin. And at least if you jump several meters over urban canyons or flees from an approaching train, you realize how thrilling is the game mechanics.

The control is thought really great: In principle, you should bring all relevant movements with the four shoulder buttons made of: duck, jump, hit ... everything works fine.

That sounds all good, then why only "4 stars?" - Well, so great the gameplay has become; the game guarantees just too much potential for frustration ... The rapid escapes over the rooftops make a lot of fun, but of which there are unfortunately far too few. Far too often, however, you are in buildings go and always looking for the way, because that is far from clear ... Although you may at your fingertips See the current destination and thanks to the Runner Vision "are relevant objects marked in red, however, it works just in the inner sections rather bad words:. you have to try to find the way, and that is a lot of screen demise ...

Furthermore, Faith is something vulnerable Regarding the melee. Only two matches, the good tolerate before it collapses. And since the counterattack really requires exact timing, you will see many places at least five times, some places even have to try more than ten times - that tugs at the heart.

Technology:
Graphically can convince Mirrors Edge mainly by the great lighting effects. The game world is, however, kept very sterile. This style is indeed intended, however, have a few (more) Hi-Res textures not done badly. Well, the animations of the arms and legs are managed.

As for the sound makes the game, however, everything right. Constantly listening to her breathe Faith's, her footsteps and example squeaky soles on glass surfaces or the like. It is through these effects really like being transported role in Faith's. Add to this a fantastic soundtrack.

Conclusion:
Mirrors Edge has really become a good game. The atmosphere is right, the control is great and the thick-feeling can convince. Nevertheless, I can only conditionally recommend: Just beginners will feel a little overwhelmed because of the high level of difficulty. In addition, the story mode with about 7 hours of play is a bit short.
Who, however, something different "and looking like dives into game worlds, be Mirrors Edge should increase.
