Mirror's Edge Gameplay - Chapter 9 - The Shard (Ending and Credits)

Part 3, with ending and credits. READ ON FOR A LITTLE REVIEW OF THIS GAME IF YOU'RE INTERESTED!

I DOUBLE dare you to watch the entire thing...I threw a little random something-something at the end...just watch and see! xD

Anyway, this has been officially the first set of many promising gameplay videos that I am planning to do, and perhaps make them into a bunch of series videos, finishing with an all-time favorite: Mirror's Edge.

***Please do keep in mind that all of my gameplay footage from now on will contain spoilers (if any)!***

Here it is, the end of the game! I tried to get through this chapter as smooth as possible, but the stuttering suddenly bogged my system. I will figure that out later :)

This is the longest, and most challenging chapter out of this entire game for me. I tried to do it all under 10 minutes, but I just couldn't do it....I'm not that good. Because of that, I divided the chapter into 3 parts...this is part 3, with ending and Staff Credits.

---- AFTERTHOUGHTS ----

Something new that I want to try: Each time I finish a game, I will briefly give my input as far as to how the game has managed to keep me entertained...kinda like a mini-review. I will rate each game out of five stars just the same way of a youtube video rating.

----
So, would I consider you buying this game? Let me rephrase my question:

1. Have you played "Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time?
2. Did you ENJOY Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time?
3. Do you know what "Parkour" is?
4. Do you enjoy running?
5. Do you like bright colors?
6. Mostly for the Americans, does that chick with the pink hair on those ESurance commercials turn you on or give you a successive boner?

If you answered YES to any or ALL of these questions, then buy this game...no questions asked!

But to be critical, as most of you could figure out, this felt more like an experimental game. It was extremely short and the replay value is a little low. The time trials and speedruns do add a bit of a challenge to the game, but this can get quite old very fast. Though don't get me wrong, I got quite addicted to some levels on this game.

The voice acting was kind of subpar, and felt very rushed, though I liked Joseph Mydell's [Miller's] voice performance all throughout. Jules de Jongh's [Faith's] emotions through her voice were a bit fake and/or dry in some spots, but were bearable...it's something similar to what you would expect in an English dubbed version of a Japanese Anime.

The most critical thing that made me laugh about this game: the CUTSCENES! My goodness, I seriously thought this game was sponsored by Esurance or something, because the cutscenes look EXACTLY like Esurance commercials, and I couldn't help but wonder who would win in a catfight: Erin Esurance or Faith Connors. The drawings look kind of rushed or not polished enough, especially with Faith, since her head seems a little mishaped.

But overall, this game has taught me a new sport and a new way to look at such a busy city environment. For DICE, this is a GOOD try at the gaming industry with GREAT visuals and an intuitive way to keep the player thinking on his or her feet.

My rating: 4.3 out of 5

---WILL THERE BE A MIRROR'S EDGE 2 SEQUEL?---

According to various sources, Patrick Soderlund, the man in charge of EA games Europe, has confirmed that a 'small team' is working on a sequel to Mirror's Edge, despite the not-so-shining sales and mixed reviews that the first one received. Though they feel comfortable enough that they can move the story along with the second one.

UPDATE:

So, after many attempts of a Mirror's Edge 2 Prototype, unfortunately the sequel has been put on hold until further notice. This is due to the prototypes not being satisfactory enough for EA to consider giving the devs the green light to actually make the sequel happen and also due to the 1st game getting mixed and underwhelming reviews. You can pat yourselves on the back for basically buying other "popular" games that actually sold well and yet they [also] play like crap.

im a cod kid and i like this game so you can't really blame the cod kids only...

[soma1509]

@TehQurry: The "CoD Kid" term was used here very loosely. It means people who buy games simply because that's the most popular game to buy and that's the game that everyone likes. You can go ahead and replace CoD with any other popular game out there and it means the same thing.

I'm not dissing on other games because they're popular, I'm dissing on people who aren't willing to try games like these [which are a little different] and saying that it "sux" before even playing it.

[bumbatumba]

mirror's edge 2 is back in production after the first prototype had been rejected. it will be run on the frostbite 2 engine.

[soma1509]

@bumbatumba: I'll look into more info about this. Even if that's legit, here's hoping the next sequel doesn't turn out to be as shitty as Need For Speed: "The Runs" turned out to be, and THAT game also uses the FB2 engine yet I certainly wouldn't compare that to something of the likes of BF3. Graphics-wise, BF3 and "The Runs" are nothing alike. DICE better get their shit together and not focus on yet another multiplayer game that no one will care about in a week.

[soma1509]

So it looks like EA shut down the servers for this game's Time Trial option, I severely doubt that a sequel is even happening at this point despite the rumors online.

I just started playing this game again and found out through a quick search that the online function for this game doesn't really work anymore because not many people play it. No matter what I do I can only play time trial on offline mode. This is a sure sign that this game [M.E. 1] is pretty much dead, sad to say.

[willraindrop5]

Mirro's Edge was made in sweden lol

[soma1509]

@willraindrop5: Sweden. Where Minecraft really exists.

[legoflyingcircus]

great ending I love this game:D

[soma1509]

@waawaa1aut : My best guess is that they assumed Faith died while the chopper went down, so they left.

Notice how Faith and Sis are in a different spot of the roof compared to where she jumps off from.

Whether the PK's saw them jump off the chopper or not is still a mystery to me.

[DarkManRo]

This was the second best game I've ever played (after GTA San Andreas)

Thank you very much @soma1509 for your gameplay videos it was really helpfull!

I recommend it to everyone!

[ify400]

@yoshiops might be it THANKS!

[yoshiops]

@ify400 I was thinking the same thing... They ARE mercenaries.. And The guy who probably pays them just died... IF I ain't gettin payed to shoot I wont.

[ify400]
