As I explained in my contribution to this week’s Destructoid Discusses!, hanging out with Dtoiders wasn’t my sole objective at PAX — I was definitely there to play the games, too! One of the titles at the top of my “must-play” list was EA DICE’s first-person parkour game, Mirror’s Edge. I’d been extremely excited for the game since it first appeared on my radar, which is why I put it on the list of the ten PS3 games of 2008 that I was looking forward to the most.
That was back in May, and hearing what Rev and Tiff had to state regarding their time with the game at E3 only served to whet my appetite further. So I was understandably eager to get my own hands on the game at PAX (the first showing of Mirror’s Edge to the general public, mind you). Luckily, the lines weren’t too bad on Friday afternoon, so I only had to wait about 15 or 20 minutes before getting a shot at the level they were demoing — it’s the one we’re all familiar with by now, the same one that Tiff and Rev played at E3: the white rooftops of the Financial District.
Hit the jump to read my thoughts on the bit of Mirror’s Edge that I played.
