My favorite game. The atmosphere is great and deep.

I definately feel that Thief: Deadly Shadows animation style vibe there too Mman. Smooth object and background animations… It’s an efficient style.

Heh, I missed the whole DRM shitstorm because my primary gaming medium is X360, followed by PS2, then PC. Sweet.

I wasn’t sure about the drawn cutscenes when I first heard about it, but now it seems pretty cool to me. Perhaps namely because the concept reminds me of Thief.

Singapore’s only clean because if they catch you spitting your gum on the sidewalk they cut out your tongue.

Or something like that.

Looks nice, but I’m not giving any more money to EA, either.

I’m hereby proposing to pirate the game because of ‘EAs stinking DRM’, no seriously!

Oh noes! Not another anti-troll troll!

Until I hear otherwise, this game is highly likely to have DRM, therefore I am not interested.

“When you go into a game and you already know the protagonist story and motivations from some trailers… it’s bad…”

The story and motivations are arguably the driving force behind the primary mechanic tho

Oh noes not another EA = Evil poster. Forget games as a medium and as an experience let’s just bitch about the publisher. Given the bad press the DRM in Spore gave EA I’m pretty sure their approach to ME will be significantly different. Next up no doubt we’ll have someone proposing to pirate the game because of ‘EAs stinking DRM’, forget the fact that the developers miss out on the money then.

Definitely looking forward to this. I quite like these animated little vignettes, it’s a good approach to put across story. The Dead space ones have been very good as well.

Unless they pull an Andrew Ryan kind of counter-protagonist:) but I seriously doubt it…

Someone recently told me about an Italian boss they had who “liked Mussolini. He made the trains run on time”. That’s the kind of world Mirror’s Edge seems to be set in.
