Mirrors Edge Demo

[Steve Evil]

Is up now on PSN and XBox Live, it's fantastic and yet another reason why I need to do a bank job to afford all these new games.

The Sofa King has summed it up nicely, it's basically a first person parkour game where you're charging around rooftops, wallrunning and making stupid leaps and rolls off stuff. It looks really clinical as the starting environment is almost all white, with features of interest marked out in red so you have a good idea of what to aim for at speed.

The sense of physicality is what it does best, as you really feel in control of every little movement when things are going right, going for a jump and tucking your legs up beneath you to clear a barbed wire fence for example.

I'd download the demo and see what you think, only takes about 5 or 10 minutes to play through, but you'll know whether it's bitten you or not by the end.

And it probably will bite you to be fair, i know i played the demo 4 times in a row just trying different routes.
