Anyone else play this game and enjoy it? I just finished it up and gotta say it's the best $20 I've spent on a game in a long time. I think it's the fact that it's something new and different and not the just same crap that keeps getting shoveled out *cough*MW2*cough*. The levels were interesting, art direction was great, and the ambient music was fantastic. My only qualm is the cutscenes - maybe they could have made it less obvious that they were created in Flash. Too bad it was so underrrated by gamers and had poor sales (yes, I know the press gave it decent reviews). Here's to looking forward to Mirror's Edge 2!

cutscenes and story sucked, some of the levels toward the end kinda sucked.

otherwise, good game. addictive gameplay, for sure.

The game was fun briefly but it became repetitive REALLY fast. I couldn't finish it and have no desire to ever finish it.

Good controls and game mechanics, but the story was garbage. Solid for $30 or less, which is what I paid so I was happy.

I got it on sale for $5, and it was worth it. I don't think I would pay $20 for it though. It was very short, very repetitive, and the story was lackluster. There are better options for $20, IMO.

I had a good time playing it on pc. Short game though, especially if you play it a second or third time. It's easily beaten in a few hours once you know the quickest paths. I liked it cause it was unique.

I really liked the atmosphere and what little story there was. I hope if there is a sequel they flesh out the plot some more and add some variety.

I got frustrated with it before I finished. Good concept though, but Faith really needs a chaingun. :p

I enjoyed it. They need to add real multiplayer (missions/coop) and a level creator, though.

Anyone do the speed runs? The Chapter 2 speedrun is kicking my ass. I always seem to mess up something somewhere that causes me to die and at that point I have to restart :-(
