HEY! viewtopic.php?f=76&t=99397 :P
The game does look fun, how is it? The one thought that corssed my mind tho is that it is nothing but pointless running and would get boring after a while.....does/is it?

Hehe my bad..didn't see it on the first page so i thought meh...

Well I only played the tut and first mission but I like it, I don't think you'll get bored of it because it's pretty intense if you want to keep your char running (which means you'll be jumping/sliding/wall running etc right after eachother). Also I like the fact you hardly shoot, yeah I am a trigger happy guy, I like shooters but this is different and more martial arts (which I like too) so :) .

Downside is that there isn't much else after the single player, but I know it'll be worth the 55 euro (probably here) :)

Played the demo at the 360 yeah, will be getting it for my 360 too. The demo is nice, I really like it =] controls are pretty easy since you have 1 jump button, 1 vault/slide button, 1 attack button, a button which makes you turn 180 or 90 degrees (you'll see what use it has when you play the game ;) ) and a disarm button =]

Ow, well AFAIK you'll be on the rooftops most of the times and you have to run away from the enemy instead of attacking them...Since you wont survive if you run towards 4 guys which each has a machinegun haha ;)

I just played it (Xbox360 owner too cheap to get Gold sub), and I liked it, it was fun to play. Had some trouble here and there, guess I have to get used to it, I miss the overview I had in Assassin's Creed. :)
Either way I like it alot, probably gonna haul ass to buy it when it's in the store.

On a side note, the Demo offered time trial, this is for Goldies only?
I couldn't play it.

EDIT: Nevermind, I just read you have to pre-order the game to be able to play the Time Trial mode.

The trouble you had is probably because this is 1st person view and not 3rd person like AC had :P

LOL yeah I forgot the word. Plus Altaïr could grab anything, a ledge or whatever, to prevent him from falling, I miss that in Mirror's Edge too since I got this amazing talent of falling off pretty much everything.
