the mirrors edge 2d beta

 

[crazy-j]

pretty cool

 

[nuwanda]

Got to watch a friend play it, and it was pretty awesome. I got some strong PoP:SoT vibes, as well as some Rapture (Bioshock) vibes, but it was all in a good way.

 

[Kermi]

Seriously, I think I'm more interested in the 2D version than I am the real version.

 

[Jeronus]

If the console version is half as good as this then I will definitely make it a must buy on my list.

 

[Altorin]

it seems pretty average, your average platformer, based heavily, heavily, heavily on the matrix.

Explain while you still have your kneecaps. And god help you if your only argument is "she runs on walls"

you know, I wasn't going to comment on this game, but that just does it, this is garbage

I couldn't stand playing it for more then a minute

what the fuck is peoples problems with other people having contrary opinions?

holy hell.

 

[Dommyboy]

Good music and to me it seems better than the first person version. *bang* ouch, Okay its not as good, damn trolls.

What is YOUR problem with other peoples' problems with other people having contrary opinions?

I think Mirror's edge was a blast when I tried out the demo. I can't wait for the full game.

it pisses me off when people shit down eachothers throat because they think differently to one another.

 

[Nazulu]

To me they are both alright but I know for a fact it will get old quick, for me anyway. The 2D one is pointless to me because it reminds of the old Sonic game play style just not as awesome. And the 3D Mirrors Edge looks pretty good besides the main character looking like a complete retard.

Huh. Funny.

I loved that demo. At 208/214 'little eye doodeys' and 8/9 'random sacks of mystery' I think I did pretty well. It was sort of what Portal: The Flash Version was to Portal, but sadly shorter. By the way, if you haven't played P:TFV, then I implore you to do so. I completed it twice over, and loved it all.

EDIT: Ah, just found out it was by Brad Bourne, maker of Fancy Pants. I did get a distinct feeling of his work in that game.

 

[Theo Samaritan]

I second Cheesus at the flash version of Portal. Wouldn't surprise me if its the same group. Syling is definately similar.

 

[Fenring]

I understand it's made by the guy who did Fancy Pants Adventure, can anyone confirm or deny this?

It is. And though I preferred Fancy Pants Adventure, this one isn't bad either. There's also an Escapist New Article about this already *fetches link*

of bloody course my argument is 'she runs on the walls' what the hell else does that game consist of (except jumping from rooftop to rooftop [MATRIX] or flashy karate-infused disarming/knocking guards out with their own shotguns [a-MATRIX] or a seemingly ideal but corrupt future [MATRIX - from the machine's p.o.v) Stylish female character who doesn't have massive, massive, massive tits [MATRIX - trininty]

I could go on but it's late on this side of the planet.

I'm going to have to politely disagree. With the especially cartoony story boards, this whole game strikes me as the awkward child of Jet Set Radio games (Jet Grind Radio and Jet Set Radio Future), with a weaker emphasis on tagging, and a stronger emphasis on parkour, which is something that was established before The Matrix ever hit screens. Outside of that, there is a bit of disarming and gun-play, but it's mostly running from the police, instead of The Matrix where you fought everything except the Agents (whom you fought by the middle of the first movie).

The game has a much stronger emphasis on movement and agility, and much less on combat. So, by that mark, it's pretty different. That, and I have a hard time imagining a Matrix that is bright, white, and colorful instead of dank, rainy, and kinda emo.

Yeah, I can see the irony, but I wasn't the one who started it.

"I like this game"
"I don't like this game"
"FUCK YOU! YOU STUPID PILLOCK! IF YOU DON'T LIKE THIS GAME YOU'RE OBVIOUSLY RETARDED, GTFO"

 

[Hookman]

Looks great and if the the actual game is as good as this then I can live happily.
