Mirror's Edge PC version 1.01 gameplay PART 1 - maxed graphics settings, nVidia PhysX enabled

I've decided to create this video, because most of the trailers out there consist of serie of few seconds long cuts of Faith's most eye-candy acrobatics or try to show the game engine's features. This definitely looks pretty cool, but it fails to illustrate one of the most important aspects of the game - the constant fear for your bare life, the feeling of beying a hunted pray, where the only chance to survive is to run like hell, knowing about the imminent danger behind you, but not even having a time to turn around and look at it.

In order to minimize the effect on your own gameplay, I tried to run through the level using the easiest routes and simple jumps, so that all those fine advanced shortcuts and jump-combos are still there for you to discover.
Well, it would be hard to show you some advanced stuff anyway, since saving a non-compressed video during the play pushes my PC a little behind the limit, which causes some slight input lag and makes proper keystroke timing a little tricky ;)

Hope this video was somehow useful to you and you enjoyed it, thanks for watching.

And by the way, did you notice that the good guys in this game like Robert Pope have their office walls painted in exact match of "nVidia green", while the bad guys quiet often tend to get their walls painted in "ATi red"? An interesting coincidence...

It's nothing special, did this following youtube's video guidelines - used h.264, didn't mess with framerate, sound is 2ch AAC. I also went for quiet high maximum video bitrate setting in Adobe Media Encoder, but left the desired average bitrate on some medium setting to keep the video size within limits. I also manually added some keyframes, mostly in the moments where the view angle changes very rapidly. That's all, Adobe CS4 and youtube took care of the rest.
