This looks pretty good.

Although for me as with pretty much every other game I have tried on my touch, the lack of physical controls will kill it.

 

Really hope they bring this to WebOS too, although I should probably think about finishing it on the 360 first.

 

very nice

 

Wait, how can the story run parallel to the main game if you're playing as Faith still?

This does look cool, but I want more Mirrors Edge PC. I felt like the first game ended just as it was getting interesting.

 

I never understood people's objections to the shooting in the first game: I went through 75% of it before I even remembered you could pick up a gun, and then the shooting felt absolutely correct for a petite Asian girl with no real training: cumbersome, unweildly and always a last resort.

 

Exactly. The only bit I found tiresome was the sniper evasion in the last level, and even then I thought it was a fair and imaginative addition to the game.

 

I must say Mirrors Edge on the PC completely passed me by when it was released, but I'll definitely pick it up next time there's a sale on Steam. This iPhone version looks pretty funky too, is it expensive?
