AceGamez: Mirror’s Edge PC Review
Mirror’s Edge isn’t quite the full reinvention that we or Dice were hoping for but it’s a flawed thing of true beauty. For all the things that go wrong towards the end of the game and despite a lacklustre plot and short length, Mirror’s Edge is a game that AceGamez can’t help but enjoy. Where Dice do succeed, they succeed in the most important areas, and their use of Parkour will likely not be bettered for a very long time. There’s hope that if Dice ever get the green light for a sequel, they can take what they’ve learnt from this first attempt and perhaps create a game that’s closer to their ambitious goals – for now, Mirror’s Edge still remains a brave experiment, and one that, if not reinvents, certainly reinvigorates a stale genre.
