    Default Mirror's Edge?

    Here is the developer walkthrough:



    The game has this amazing first person perspective with a style of gameplay that's focused on acrobatics first. The devs said in an interview combat is actually a secondary gameplay element, and you can finish the whole game without killing anyone.

    It's very interesting, but is there any way to turn the damn red off(the red shows the girl the path to take), the game gets too easy with red telling you where to jump.

    Even with the "red" it may be very hard. we dont know.

    Here's a link to an HD trailer (all in-game footage). http://www.gametrailers.com/player/36281.html

    It looks interesting... but I doubt I'll play it.

    Maybe, the red would make the game more fluid, fast paced and be like a movie experience. I doubt it would be too difficult. Without the red, the game would be more exploration and adventure.

    But... but... how will the kiddies know what to do?

    Unfortunately, games on enabling rails seems to be the new fad for the industry.

    The red probably represents Faith's experience and knowledge.

    Assuming she's not a complete noob of a runner, she probably knows many different paths through the city already.

    The red is just a way to show us what we already should know from a roleplaying standpoint.

    You would make a good game designer

    Seriously, the red is added purely from a gameplay point of view. The story and setting is always added on like the last coat of paint.

    The game looks very pretty. I love all the colors. But seriously, I REALLY don't want to be led by the hand.
