It is sad to see this innovative game (at the time) not get a second chance. The sales may have been poor the first time around but what a game! It definitely was not my top pick of the year but after being hooked on it for a few weeks I realized how there were no other games out there like it. Yes the word "innovative" got tossed around a lot (see above). But it seems like there are just so many sequels out there. And if a new game isn't a sequel then its a virtual copy of another title. I mean how many 3rd person or 1st person copycat shooters can we handle? Mirrors Edge was definitely not a copy, but a reinvention of the first person genre. So maybe it's sequel would have been a copy. So maybe it is a good thing that it got canned. I hope that Press 2 Play is working on another game that is unlike anything we have seen before. Yes there is risk in a game like this. But doesn't EA have the money to at least try? The only radically different games ive seen recently have been in indie and arcade games. The development cycle is shorter and the cost is much less. But seriously, every major title coming out this fall is a sequel. Lets try something new, please?
Microsoft announced its financial results for Q3 of fiscal year 2026, including an update on its gaming Xbox business and more.
Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.
To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.
The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.
Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.
15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.
These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
The charity event will be streamed live from Gamescom in August.
Thanks to the slip-up of an artist working on the title, we now have more evidence that a new Injustice game is in the works.
nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ooooooooooooo.....
I was thinking myself too that if EA were being honest in saying that what they had made so far wasn't impressive or good enough then maybe it was for the best. I'll be disappointed not to see a sequel to ME since it was a really fun and different game, but if it wasn't going to be of a good standard and the devs themselves even thought so then we're just gonna have to trust their judgement.
Not cancelled, but put on hold.
DICE are working on Battlefield 3 for PC, PS3 and Xbox 360.
They can't really be expected to work on Mirror's Edge 2 simultaneously, can they?
Sad it is to hear this news.. the game is beautiful and the gameplay is still fresh to this day.
Here are some shots from the game showing just how beautiful it really is.

Mirror's Edge is mediocre at best. It is a ho-hum 1st person platformer that thought it could get away with JUST being a 1st person platformer. Go on, disagree with me. It doesn't change the fact.
