Ok so some people have told me that this game is a carbon copy of other FPS's but seriously its not. For a start how many games actually let you slide down ramps, jump over buildings and stand on top of cranes over looking a city? Well this is the first game I have found that allows you to do that and so much more. The graphics in it are amazing, the amount of time and effort put in to how you see the world, I mean you can even see fingerprints on hands and wrinkles on faces. Nothing is left out, and I have not found any glitches yet. The game (in my eyes) is perfect, it is one of those games you cant put down. I found when I first put it on that I played it 4 hours plus without actually realising it. There are very few games that I have found actually done that to me.

But back to Mirrors Edge, the buttons can awkward to begin with but once you get into the game the buttons become free flowing and easy to use. As its not the typical jump controls, it makes you really think about what you are doing and how you are going to do it. One other great property of the game is there is no real set route, if you can see a ledge and can get too it then you can get that way. When you do put it away you miss playing it. Ok so in general I think Mirrors Edge is a game that I would love a sequal too.
