Mirrors Edge — Faith

Mirrors Edge for the PC is a first person action-adventure puzzle game with an extremely compelling story line and quite possibly the most frustrating game play known to man.

I want to preface my review by saying that I really, really want to like this game and it’s close to being actually good..  close, yet so far.

Over all the story line is very good.  I very much enjoyed the game for the story aspect, and I do like the idea of a FPS game where the S is largely missing.  The ability to interact with your environment is extremely enjoyable and is something that is almost entirely missing from any other game out there.

More over, the game has a lot of nice touches like the rats everywhere indicating the decay of society and the occasional airplane flying over at 30+ thousand feet.. but there were far more frustrating elements.

I’m a bit of a Sid Meier‘s fan — He will likely go down in history as the king of turn based strategy games with the introduction of the Civilization franchise in the early 1990′s.

Having said that, I must admit that I don’t enjoy the civilization franchise at all..  In fact, I really can’t stand that game.  I have tried to like them but I just don’t enjoy any of the civilization games..   But his other games are great!  To this day I still have very fond memories of F-15 Strike Eagle.. I played the hell out of that game..hehe
