Mirror's Edge delivered to consoles Nov. 11, PC version delayed

by Alexander Sliwinski { Sep 18th 2008 at 10:45AM }

EA has announced that its parkour, rebellion and delivery girl simulator, Mirror's Edge, will release November 11 for Xbox 360 and PS3. Giving credence to the rumors already floating around, the PC version of the game is now confirmed for "later in the winter."

EA also confirmed that a demo will be available featuring "the tutorial" and a scene from the single-player campaign. Those who pre-order at "select retailers" after September 26 will receive a code that unlocks "Time Trial" in the demo. Hopefully, the game will be delivered on time -- watch the rooftops!

[Update: Note that the pre-order incentive's staring date may not necessarily be the release date of the demo. Upon contacting EA for a specific date, Joystiq was told, "The pre-order initiative begins on September 26th and the demo will be out before the game ships, as the press release sent this morning states."]

That woman(?) scares me.

I dunno... something about that hair really gets me going.

Gehodra @ Sep 18th 2008 12:11PM

Having trouble differentiating between men and women?

The eye make-up is just weird....but semi-Asian chicks are hot. She reminds me of Olivia Munn.

@Obie: All women of all race and or creed are beautiful. Semi or not.

Its usually the concept art that looks better than the in game model. Much like the cover of Heavenly Sword. In this case though, they elevated the cheek bones waaay to high and it makes her look freaky and alien like.

At least it's not as hard to distinguish as in the FF or most other Japanese RPGS. Seriously.

West @ Sep 18th 2008 1:42PM

OMG! She's an alien! SpoilerZ!

Alvin @ Sep 18th 2008 8:13PM

is it just me, or those she look like Lucy Lu, with the hair she had in Kill Bill Vol. 1?

Yes, we Asians are aliens. Domination is imminent.

Fear us.

I wish some...I mean a lot of these holiday games I want were pushed towards the RE5 release time. Still, can't wait for this.

Vcize @ Sep 18th 2008 11:03AM

Good looking game, but very bad timing on November 11th. Guess I'll be picking it up next year when the price drops some.

Yeesh, what a fall. Spread this stuff out some, guys.

Every publisher is following this trend now, in hopes to improve sales.

I think I'll wait for the pc version, where I can mod the main character to look like batman.

Wiinterfang @ Sep 18th 2008 11:07AM

Is this a Platformer?

DangerMouse @ Sep 18th 2008 2:51PM

Surprise!!!

Demaar @ Sep 18th 2008 11:12AM

So the question is, do I preorder it for 360 or wait until I get a PS3?

Matt @ Sep 18th 2008 11:24AM

Neither - preordering games is stupid unless there's a worthwhile bonus. Just walk into the store on the day of release and buy it - there will be plenty available.

Snowblind @ Sep 18th 2008 11:47AM

That all depends on where you live. In the UK for example, many sites deliver games early, so you'll recieve your copy a day or two before release.

Hardly stupid, in that case.

Haggard (Free Mr.ESC!) @ Sep 18th 2008 11:58AM

Which sites are these?

Both Amazon and Play have always delivered to me on exactly the date of release :(

Jack @ Sep 18th 2008 1:39PM

Yeah, I'm going to have to disagree. Pre-ordering isn't a useless practice. Yeah, retailers like it because they want your business. But in places where even AAA games come in limited quantity its often necessary pre-order.

And for me personally, I like to give little bits and pieces of money to the store that way its doesn't seem like such a major dent in my wallet when the total on pick up day is like 10 bucks.
