Tainted Lunch Meat : Games

Downloaded the Mirror's Edge demo for the 360 over the weekend. Quite impressed. Very clean and bright look to the game. Controls were not too difficult to get the hang of, although not really intuitive either(jumping with the left trigger seemed odd). The training part of the demo was a bit of a bore, absolutely necessary though. The level you get to play is rather enjoyable, but nearly as soon as the training wheels come off it's game over. Definitely seems like the game has potential. As unique a take on an FPS as I've ever played. The combination of the visual style and the unique game play seems to work well. Can't wait to buy it next year when it hits the bargain bins.
