There are moments of this game that come off very serene. If the job of a video game is to relieve stress, this game brings that with spades. At least, that is until you start tackling some of the random side quests with far too tight time restrictions, or navigating the confusing maze of a map once...

The first-person perspective has a great deal of potential for truly immersing the player in an experience. Many games use this advantage for greater impact with horrific imagery, more excitement in set pieces, and a sense of involvement in puzzles.

Good game, nice views and action fluidity, however I thought the fighting was quite repetitive, the main story was really quite short and the final 'show down' I expected to be a very exciting and challenging fight, but instead it was 2 standard enemies that aren't at all a challenge

Took time to install but the first time playing it was great I had a great time playing I like the graphics

Great game and great story tad difficult to master but worth a play

While Catalyst keeps up the great first-person parkour action of the first game, the awkward smashing of its parts into the ubiquitous, open-world model hasn't done Mirror's Edge any favors.

EA and DICE have finally launched a follow-up to cult classic Mirror's Edge; join Ben as he dusts off Faith's old red running shoes.

Fantastic art and level design makes Glass a pleasure to run around; Highly polished parkour system; Combat works well in hit-and-run encounters; Plenty for explorers and competitive gamers; Puzzle-platform rooms are neat

Character progression system is pointless; Story predictable and humourless; Combat doesn't work in stand-and-fight situations, which are too common; Side missions and activities are awfully samey

During the extended breakaways where Mirror's Edge Catalyst settles on what it wants to be, it's an excellent and captivating game. Bounding across tightropes and high-rises as you explore the city is liberating.

Great Graphics and storyline, only thing that I didn't like was the not so live multiplayer.
