I agree Cod3 did have very great multiplayer...to bad it never came out for pc and didnt feature much for new content (basically a revamped cod2 with vehicles) The destructable enviroment was a nice add to cod though.

The fact that so many new PC games will also be available for the console somehow drastically reduces the quality.

What's up(/down) with mirrors edge?

i prefer my console, so i think it is fine!, TBH there is not much difference now anyway, i find my xbox more fun than my PC.

CoD: WaW will suck... just like CoD3 did.

Aw fuck, are you kidding me, infantry ward isn't making it? well i will still hope its good, but it looksl ike it just got moved to the maybe list now =/

Did you people ever even play COD3? The multiplayer on it was the best! It was almost as good as Halo 2's!

The fact that they didn't make it for the PC is a big "fuck you" in the face of PC gamers. Why the hell make a series exclusive to console, and not even TRY porting it to PC when the other titles made the game a enormous success on PC in the first place.

Anyways, as someone asked, mirrors edge is about a girl who delivers messages in a world where communication is monitored by the government or something along those lines. If you are familiar with "free style" walking (can't think of the actual name of it) it will be easier to understand what the game is about. But it's first person view where you are jumping from roof tops (actually think assassins creed free flowing roof top antics, but in first person) and taking out guards, or sneaking past them. developers say it's not an open world, but it's linear game play with many many possibilities and paths to complete the mission.

parcour or free running is what you are trying to say.

All though parcour is all about getting from A to B as efficiently as possible and Free running is more about style, aka a parcourist would not stand on a bollard and do a back flip while a free runner would.

What's up(/down) with mirrors edge?

-Free Running, yay
-New Gameplay, Yay!
-Nice look

-Path seems pregiven, a.k.a. the shortest way is marked red, basicly makeing the game to easy.

Maybe it can be disabled?

I checked some raw gameplay footage and its more than that it seems, the red way just "points out" a way you can take, story seems okay, too.

[GoOutside]

Alot of the games at E3 are impressing me some of them storyline alone is enough but heres a small list
Left 4 Dead
Fable II
Halo Wars
Gears of War 2
End War
Killzone
Has anyone noticed that like some of the games just have the word war in it and its used over and over and over and over and over and over and over again?

[Warbirds2]

Killzone!  Yeah!  Glad to see someone else besides me is waiting for this game.

[Rahx]

Killzone is a Dutch game whoooo

Anyways, its a very good-looking game...

Havent seen that video yet! :OOO

I live in a certain Shire in the United Kingdom where I am only several miles away from Codemasters HQ (I live in a University city so they probably get free use of the sound/animation capture and graphics studios at the arts and media centers as I know a lad who has used it in his productions) so hopefully they have another open day and I'll look to attend.

I am really following this release because its such a great project in terms of world wide research and development techniques according to the PC gaming 'mags I have read.

E3 blew this year imo. They werent even looking at SC2. What a bunch of noobcakes.
