HOW HOT ARE WE FOR THIS GAME?
8.6
Very Hot

WHY HOT?
Finally, someone comes up with an original idea, has the potential to move the genre forward;

WHY NOT?
There's still much we don't know about it, let's hope it becomes more than a Assassin's Creed or Matrix look-alike.

» All About Mirror's Edge on ActionTrip


The inevitable Matrix feel is there, of course. Most of the chase scenes will remind you of Neo and Trinity, as they try to elude persistent agents. Since we brought up The Matrix, it appears that DICE is going to offer its own take on Bullet Time, which they are calling Reaction Time. You accumulate Reaction Time by pulling off a number of slick acrobatic moves. Reaction Time (i.e. slowing down time) is best suited for fine-tuning huge leaps or executing more complex moves.

The whole idea behind Mirror's Edge is to give players a "feeling of motion" as they stride across rooftops and attempt to evade being caught by the government.

Assuming Mirror's Edge doesn't get hampered somewhere along the line with strict publisher deadlines or potential technical issues, it certainly appears as if the game could become more than your average Matrix/Assassin's Creed look-alike. We're keeping our eyes open for in-game footage, but from what was revealed thus far this one has a fair chance of actually pushing the boundaries of the genre further than most major modern-day FPSs have done.

The game is scheduled to arrive later this year for PC, Xbox 360 and PS3 platforms.
