I don't see why us PC gamers should suffer because of Sony and Microsoft's pathetic little squabble

[Someguy]

Well, the PC is usually always somehow connected to the Xbox 360 version of the game. Blame Microsoft. :P

It could be a Europe-only thing FYI, regardless.... I want Mirror's Edge bad.

Of all the games to make exclsuice, this one? It looks very interesting though.

[twonunpackmule]

It looks interesting. I just have a feeling that the game is going to be extremely linear. I hope it's more then just trial and error.

It also looks rather bland graphically...but I need to see more.

[RedRedSuit]

I am also afraid it will be linear and trial-and-error'y. However, graphically, it looks spectacular.

The bad guys look awkward, and it's all colored rather blandly. Sure, it's "stylized"...but it's bland style. It looks like Time Crisis.

I'm amazed it's a UE3 title... it doesn't look anything like it.

I have genuine interest in the game, I'm just wondering how it works. Like, if it's only running. Is there combat? Shooting? How do you know where to go? Are there multiple ways to get through levels?

Read some of the recent previews. It's got shooting, but most of it is irrelevant as you're better off disarming enemies, not killing them.

And the trailer is fairly obvious on how you can get from point to point, you have color-keys. Pipes will glow red, walls you can run on will have a yellow tint on them, and according to DICE there are multiple ways.

EA and Sony have always had a good relationship between them and it was obvious that when the PS3 was showing signs of breaking out and selling to the public, EA would start supporting it properly.

Is it all these developers not supporting the ps3 properly or Sony not supporting the developers?

Considering its not just EA that's had a bumpy start i'd say Sony deserves just as much blame.

Okay, Crackman.
