Mirror's Edge
Game » consists of 13 releases. Released Nov 11, 2008
In a futuristic totalitarian dystopia, a master courier (in a group of renegade "runners") investigates a conspiracy, while outrunning the deadly government military, in this parkour-inspired first-person action game.
Mirror's Edge DLC Revealed
As part of this announcement, DICE has confirmed that the PC version of Mirror's Edge will ship on January 13th in the US, and January 16th worldwide. The time-trial pack will be available for all three versions of Mirror's Edge sometime in late January for a price of $10. On top of all this, the PlayStation Blog is reporting that there will be a free, PS3-exclusive time-trial map released alongside the premium pack. $10 for seven maps seems a little steep, but I think it's awesome that DICE has taken the clean, high-contrast look of the game to its logical conclusion.

Nice, this is where this games strength lies to be honest - take it out of the story and focus on the working mechanic
This looks amazing. I'm really, really interested in playing this and my only concern is that it's a hefy amount of content for so much. But these levels are totally unexpected and I'm certainly excited.
Also why are you even bringing up the combat for a time-trial pack? Time trials are clearly Mirror Edge's replay value, even on the original disc, and none of those feature combat.

I gotta' say that it's bullshit that the people on the PS3 get an extra map for free when I payed just as much as they did for my copy of the game.
"Now why wasn't this an unlockable at the end of the game?...."Because developers know they can squeeze every bit of money out of a game by not including it in the original release and waiting for the games hype and popularity to die down and then BANG, DLC for the low price of 5-9$ and everyone buys it up.
pretty cool and it kind of seems like this is the way the game should have been in the first place.
The song is called Still Alive (Teddybears Mix) for anyone who wants to know
i rented the game, as i knew the story would be short, however i was intrigued as to how the game would play and i loved it, however there was no point buying it after that. This will make me buy it, remove the story completely, make it puzzle based and you got an awesome, awesome game there.
Those remind me of the Mario Sunshine levels that had me cursing all of Nintendo to eternal hellfire.
But they're damn cool just to look at...
Now were talking, the time trials are the best part of Mirror's Edge and those maps look like a lot of fun.
I think that going the abstract route is somewhat weird, seeing how they have an enormous city filled with who knows what to exploit, but they take the easy way out and create some bull. I'd still pick it up, but I would be more inclined if there was more city
