Sheikah Posted November 3, 2008 Posted November 3, 2008 This is going to be awesome lol you and your hype-machine! You can sell a game to anyone, you can. Thought of taking up sales? :p
Dan_Dare Posted November 3, 2008 Author Posted November 3, 2008 well it's true! Very, very slick stuff.
gaggle64 Posted November 3, 2008 Posted November 3, 2008 So polished you could eat your dinner off it.
Haden Posted November 3, 2008 Posted November 3, 2008 Very impressed by the demo will definatly pick this up at one point it is really exciting leaping about when you are being chased I wonder if there is a mode where you can turn the colours off like an extra hard mode.
Shorty Posted November 3, 2008 Posted November 3, 2008 Been through the demo about 4 times even though there isn't much to do think I'm secretly hoping it'll glitch and let me run over to that next jump after the helicopter part. Really enjoying it. I think I prefer it with Runner-Vision turned off. Makes it more challenging and at the same time makes you feel a bit more free.
Black Diamond Posted November 3, 2008 Posted November 3, 2008 I've pre-ordered mine (for PS3). Love the demo.
Bren Posted November 3, 2008 Posted November 3, 2008 The demo was cool, still not convincved me to buy it on release, i think its gonna be an after xmas 2 for £40 for meh.

In the game options screen you can turn off the "Runner Vision" of which you speak, as well as the reticule. I like the runner vision myself, since they've incorporated it into the colour scheme anyway.
Ganepark32 Posted November 3, 2008 Posted November 3, 2008 When I pick this up next friday, I'm gonna have to get myself a HDMI cable for my 360. I'm currently playing through the Component cable and it looks stunning but the footage of it running in HD is amazing. Or can the component cables display in HD? Argh.... I dunno. Just know that the HDMI cable will make it look even nicer.

I'm currently playing through the Component cable and it looks stunning but the footage of it running in HD is amazing. Or can the component cables display in HD? Argh.... I dunno. Just know that the HDMI cable will make it look even nicer. Component will show it in 720p (it's the most common HD format). HDMI will show it in 720p upscaled to 1080p.
Ganepark32 Posted November 3, 2008 Posted November 3, 2008 ^ so not true 1080p then? Doesn't really matter. If that's the case, I don't really need to HDMI cable really. Is there much difference between 720p and 1080p to warrant the purchase of a HDMI cable?

I like the runner vision myself, since they've incorporated it into the colour scheme anyway. Ah ok thanks. I agree id keep it but if I did a rerun would be nice to change things around go hardcore. The colour scheme is very nice and refreshing nice to have a blue sky and bright colours. I really love how the game makes you think on your feet has a very exciting feel to it. Did anyone get motion sickness btw? I didnt but I heard its been a problem for some.
gaggle64 Posted November 3, 2008 Posted November 3, 2008 That's why they've got the reticule there apparently - having a single point to focus on helps prevent motion sickness, the same way dancers always focus on one point to prevent dizziness.
Choze Posted November 4, 2008 Posted November 4, 2008 Made a Mirror's Edge LBP level. Go check it out. I experimented with afew things but it bodes well for the future. I added a helicopter and unlockable zipline.
Shorty Posted November 4, 2008 Posted November 4, 2008 PA made a comic about how sick the game makes them (literally, physically, not in disgust or something like that). Anyone feel this playing the demo? I sure didn't :/ not even slightly tbh.
Choze Posted November 4, 2008 Posted November 4, 2008 No the motion was very natural and made sense. If it was abit off people would feel motion sickness.
Ganepark32 Posted November 4, 2008 Posted November 4, 2008 Nope. I was fine the 5 or so times I played through the demo. But then I've never had motion sickness so I'm fine.

Anyone feel this playing the demo? I sure didn't :/ not even slightly tbh. me neither. I never get it with games though. I do know people who can't play Half life because of it, which is both odd and a bit of a shame.
EchoDesiato Posted November 4, 2008 Posted November 4, 2008 Watching gameplay footage made it look very disorienting, but actually playing it myself it was just fine. So no dizzyness here.
Daniel Posted November 4, 2008 Posted November 4, 2008 That was weird, using LB to jump just isnt right at all!
Gizmo Posted November 4, 2008 Posted November 4, 2008 Only game I've ever played to give me motion sickness is Marathon on XBLA. Had no problems at all with this.
Cube Posted November 4, 2008 Posted November 4, 2008 That was weird, using LB to jump just isnt right at all! Try swapping it to RB.
EchoDesiato Posted November 5, 2008 Posted November 5, 2008 Anyone know where I can get one of these time-trial codes? I pre-ordered the game, but didn't get one. Is this a USA thing only?
McPhee Posted November 5, 2008 Posted November 5, 2008 ^ so not true 1080p then? Doesn't really matter. If that's the case, I don't really need to HDMI cable really. Is there much difference between 720p and 1080p to warrant the purchase of a HDMI cable? HDMI will give you a sharper and more stable image regardless of the resolution. Well worth the fiver for the cable tbh (unless you use the optical port on the 360, then you'll be needing the official dongle)
Ganepark32 Posted November 8, 2008 Posted November 8, 2008 Anyone got any idea on whether the free T-Shirt you can get by buying this is from GAME an online only thing, where you have to pre-order to get it, or instore upon release as well? Doesn't say anything on their site about it. T-shirt's quite nice which is why I'm wondering. I'll have another look but any help would be much appreciated.
