Mirror's Edge - Jacknife trashcan shortcut

PSN - prilt -

Tons of people have asked how to do the shortcut at the beginning of chapter 2, where you use the trachcan to jump over the barbed wire fence, and it is a really hard shortcut to explain, so I just made a quick video of me doing it a bunch of times.
It;s not so bad when you get used to it. But even I still miss it sometimes, as you'll see. There isn't much of a trick to it, you just have to keep trying

not possible on xbox anymore, they patched it :(

[ovendonkey186]

@TheGrawp Has anyone else on xbox been able to get this to work recently? I'm pretty sure DICE has not released any patches since the game came out in 2008, but I don't have an xbox to test this on. So yeah, someone should reply to this if they can do it

@ovendonkey186 you can jump over the fence by wall running the left wall and coiling over. it works!

[ovendonkey186]

@Nayan66 Yep, that's a couple seconds slower though.

[Tscheyeff]

@ovendonkey186 i can only agree... i tried it for almost a hour!

[ovendonkey186]

@Tscheyeff Well a lot of people have confirmed for me that this works just as well on xbox, so just keep trying it

[SpartanJAX48]

[NightmareHisham]

[MrZaneMan]

Anyone else hear "City authorities are investgating... " every time?

[Resimaster]

Just keep trying. When I was going for the platinum trophy, I was stuck doing this for ages. But now I get it virtually every time, so dont give up.

@Mage653 me too, I almost wonder if they stuck in invisible wall in there since this was posted (it has been almost two years :| ). do you have the 360 version?

[WestSideVision]

Appears to me the big rat walking to the trash can is signaling you to try in the first place.

[FruityLoopsas]
