This is how games should be made.
As in title, one of the best games I've played. And also - the speedruns for this are insanely awesome!

Good artwork, bad gameplay.
Beautiful artstyle with graphics that are very dated and look about as clunky as the game feels to play. The movement in this game feels sluggish and like you're pushing through stuff rather than building any kinda momentum, which is a mechanic in the game but is lost at the tiniest nudge of collision. There are forced combat sections with enemies that are very poorly designed. The worst ones are the swat officer and the runner cops. The runner cops you are supposively supposed to be able to take down, but i have tried time and time again to try and do that. It does not work. The swat officer is far worse, and the most common enemy in the game. You can't really punch them, and you can't really disarm them, so what you're left with is either shooting them or taking them down from above. They are also the most inconsistent enemy because even the developers knew they had made them way too punishing in certain sections. So they had to hardcode changes to their timings, hp, counterattacks etc to even make those sections remotely beatable. This results in a highly inconsistent, frustrating enemy which slows down the game constantly. The worst level thusly is one simply called "Boat". which is a level swarming with these guys, lacking in platforming at all, and has one of the worst bossfights in videogame history. You're basically dependent on disarming someone, and the timing is on a fraction of a section. you'd be hardpressed to know when to actually pull it off, because i couldn't. i think i just got lucky. Enjoy this game for the artwork and the beautiful and unique setting. and if you want a good game go play this games reboot: catalyst. the people who say this is better are purely working on nostalgia. but in no sense is the first mirrors edge better than catalyst. its clunky, dated, poorly executed, frustrating experience, with the only thing going for it being its style and music.

Overrated "Die and retry"
It looks nice. And that's all. I find the gameplay very stupid: You are running under fire of cops and machine gun fire of a helicopter. And filled with bullets, you must be the greatest runner, jumper and climber the universe has ever seen. May be, you find it entertaining if you are not older than 10 years.
