I feel so bad for not supporting it while the publishers were paying attention to the sales...

I'm surprised how many of us loved the first one (reply)

I think it's been one of those where the sales were marginally acceptable, but fans of the game were pretty rabid. The latter is a measure of success, too. So glad it's coming back.

I remembered that it didn't sell well at first -- http://www.gamasutra.com/view/news/112523/In_Depth_Inside_Mirrors_Edge_Dead_Space_Sales_Weakness.php
So I always thought of ME as a game I liked that not too many people knew/cared about.

Reading more, it seems sales did top 2 million. I'm thinking a lot of those were off the bargain rack. It's interesting that developer shelved it to concentrate resources on Battlefield 3. I am very curious to see how it will do this time around.

I loved the first game's soundtrack (reply)

Still gonna get it though. Mirror's Edge makes me so happy.

I hope there's a demo or something... (reply)

It would be a guilty pleasure to get the collector's edition for sure, but DICE is making it, and the first one made by them is one of my favorite games.

Yes! The original is my favorite xbox game! I'd love if all FPS incorporated such fluid movement. Don't take movement for granted, make running fun! Collector's edition looks awesome.

That "get out of the van" segment was a pain without (reply)

First time through the game I actually gave up and shot everyone.

Liked the art direction of the first one a lot but the game gave me a really bad case of motion sickness. Could only play it in 20 minute intervals. It was a gauntlet to finish the game. :/

I can understand the concern. It's a very visceral game. Always wanted to try it with a VR headset, but a part of me is afraid to.

I similarly can't be as elusive as the rest of the thread, even though I liked it. My least favorite parts were the gunplay bits, which I am told are gone in the new version?

Yep, guns are gone. I agree that that was one part of the original that seemed undercooked. Never saw it as the main course or really necessary, though, so it didn't matter to me.

Only time I would seriously use a gun was to use a pistol to shoot open doors when doing time trial.

Yep. All too often what should be single player games get crappy multiplayer tacked on and it's horrible. /me glares at Tomb Raider. /me yells: "How about you give us collections of neat challenging tomb puzzles instead of new mulitplayer maps and avatars nobody will be using half a year from now?!"

I don't want multiplayer really, and I don't want it for its own sake. The first game was so good, though, that I'd be curious about it if the game had it.

If that steelbox wasn't so darn gorgeous, I wouldn't even consider it.

Yeah, it's the steelbox mainly, but ... if I'm going have a statue of a video game character, Faith is one of my favorites.
