Mirror’s Edge demo thoughts

November 9, 2008

mirrors-edgeMirror’s Edge is a whole new style of game: new kind of perspective, fresh story, futuristic setting, etc. I was really getting impatient to get the demo to be able to see for myself, and get the full game later. I tried the demo and right away didn’t like the graphics: the buildings were comic book-like which I found bizarre. The gameplay is Ok but the controls are very hard to master. I had to try most of the tutorial twice to pass on to the next place, which isn’t a problem at all. I was very hyped about the game and the concept in general before trying the demo, but the it didn’t catch me at all, which I don’t know why. This game will be groundbreaking and create a new type of genre in video games. But I just don’t see myself paying 60 bucks for the game…


Battlefield: Bad Company

June 17, 2008

Battlefield is a series that I have always loved. I have just played and finished the demo of battlefield bad company for PS3, which is available as a 1600-ish free download from the PSN. The graphics and story blew me away. The new frostbite engine will enable this game to be the best FPS available today. This game is all about blowing up buildings, tanks, and so on. I cannot wait to have this game between my hands and get to play with it. The online part will be the most compelling part of this game. Up to 16 players can play in one online game. A multitude of maps will be available for gamers to play on.(Currently on the online demo there is only one map to play on against other people. You can add me on the PSN, i am ghalimacman on the PSN or leave your PSN ID in a comment and I will be glad to add you and possibly play against you online Battlefield games. You can typically find me playing online GTA games if I am not playing the actual game. (I am almost finished with it.)
