[Revelations]

eh? i can upload my own music on hypemachine?

Please do. I'd like to hear this track.

 

[Pimpwerx]

The PSN trailer gives me an Ultraviolet vibe. I don't know. That was an awful movie, but the beginning had her playing the basic messenger role, and she did have to do some crazy shit to escape. Meh...maybe not. PEACE.

 

[SapientWolf]

I got a Jason Cluts vibe from the music. It sounded a little similar to what he was going for in the song "December", only much more subtle.

The end almost sounds like Coldplay.

 

[Gav]

Something similar may have been posted, but i actually contacted DICE, and i got this in return

The track in the Mirror's Edge video is a part of the soundtrack for the game specifically commissioned by DICE. All we can say at the moment is that it is produced by well-known music industry producers. More information will be available closer to the launch of Mirror's Edge.

If they have a modicum of common sense left, Sonic Team (whatever the hell that means these days) should be paying very close attention to this game.

Decmber is awesome. is there anyway we can grab these?

Yep. Just click the download button on the upper right while the song is playing and you will download the MP3. He's giving away all his music for free.

Thanks, I was wondering what kind of genre this is.

Here's a direct link to December btw, from his official site:

Is there anyone else "good one" that does similar music to the one in the Mirror's Edge video? Feels like there should be tons of movie OSTs with similar music.

Very nice, thanks for linking.

I don't feel like there's much of a connection between Cluts' work and the trailer music though. Guess we'll see down the line.

 

[joedan]

Seems like a game that would work well with the wiimote.

Yeah same here. While it is nice I dont see a similarity at all with the music in the trailer.

Can't stop watching the trailer. So good.

Oh my...

Another 10+ pages confirmed.

It really doesn't. At all, because it would look like ______ and i need for it to look like non _____ in order better see the kind of moves i have to do.

"Cat dander" and "dairy"

Mad libs are a blast.

This is either a brilliant joke or the dumbest comment I have seen all month.

 

[FabCam]

It sounds a little like Westlife - Us against the world in some parts.

It looks incredible, however I doubt it will make 08. My only concern is linearality (if that's a word). Whilst you could have the possiblilty of taking multiple paths it may be very linear.

 

[joedan]

Not a joke. Didn't say it would work well on the Wii and its horsepower. I'm referencing the controls. 360, PS3, PC whatever. Wii controls seem well suited to the game.

 

[SPEA]

Cause running on top of buildings is better with the Wiimote?

No sorry. Nothing seems well suited to the Wii Controls.

Or explain to me, cause that's just the perfect kind of game I just DONT see me playing on Wii.
And I'm usually good at that.

 

[joedan]

Because of course the running bit is what you thought i meant.

 

[AlternativeUlster]

Wow, I wish all next gen graphics look like that. Wow. That will make me jump from just owning a Wii console that is for sure. God damn. Wow. I wish you never have to use a gun. I would rather just freewalk all day long.

 

[InsertCredit]

wow. what?

 

[verio]

I always thought it was known to be multiplatform.

Same here. However, I thought the description for the trailer on PSN was odd.

"Introducing a new PS3™ icon - Faith"

 

[BobFromPikeCreek]

... Maybe you should elaborate, because I think it's safe to say that no one has a clue what you're talking about.

 

[rollingstart]

yeah.

Wii controls are so far off from being the ideal way of controlling this game. I would actually say it seems like DS3/360 controller would even be better than PC for this one.

 

[joedan]

wow. what?

Grabbing. sliding. taking down with feet. melee combat etc. etc. 'running' would be via analogue stick with either control scheme so i wasn't referring to that. Why pretend to not understand? Not talking about graphics once again.

 

[Shins]

Could you give a breakdown on how those gameplay elements would be controlled via Wii remote, in your mind?

NOOOOOOOOO

We just got off the last stupid argument.

It is possible for him to share his ideas on the controls without going into a tizzy.

You aren't really explaining why they would be better. Actually, you are making a better argument for why it would be bad with the wiimote.

 

[Cheerilee]

Unattractive is the new brown.

Fortunately, this is a first-person game, so it'll fail to deliver the unattractiveness just as Metroid Prime failed to make Samus look hot.

Hello blue sky. I've missed you.

 

[androvsky]

I was thinking the Sixaxis would make a lot of sense in this game, using it to balance when running across the pipes, ala Uncharted. Don't really know how it would work with the Wiimote unless you don't need to look around much (i.e., it really is on rails).

 

[angelcage87]

For all the people who liked the trailer' song,i suggest to listen to this:

Gotta love red sparowes.

 

[HalfwayOrb]

Reminds me of Breakdown.
Hot!

for anyone dying for song in the trailer: Another Day - Paul van Dyke

According to this thread it's an original piece composed for the game.

I have no idea the validity of that post though.

I searched up Another Day by PvD on youtube and it sounds nothing like the trailer.

*bookmarked* the tune that plays on the homepage is amazing.

You pple underestimate the cursor accuracy of the wiimote, anyway is this coming to pc right?cant see me playing this with a regular pad.....to slow for the kind of action im seing here.

 

[Bluemercury]

:lol :lol :lol with the fast response needed for this you think a pad is better?get out of here....

Anyway this puts the genericness of the latest two fps games with a two in the end of the title, to shame......

The cursor is interesting, but I don't really follow you on how it would be utilized for those moves mentioned?

 

[Bluemercury]

the problem with this game in the consoles ,assuming that when you jump you control the direction in mid air, is that dual analog is just way to slow or precise to land on the places where you should, its just too fast. That scene where she jumps in diagonal to reach a pipe i see people falling many times and missing it. This is going to be much better controlled with a mouse.

 

[Helzown]

I'm not sold that it's gonna be the best game ever, but it's definitely impressive. I guarantee I will purchase this game on the effort alone, good or bad I imagine it to be an interesting experience.

From the trailer, it seemed like there was high degree of "stickiness" to that jump which allowed a lot of wiggle room to plant the feet.

Still, if you do gain precision in your aiming of jumps, what about the buttons handling "grabbing. sliding. taking down with feet. melee combat etc. etc."? The Wii Remote has some great strengths, but multiple mapped control mechanisms aren't really one of them, given the lower number of buttons available.

If you start mapping function to the motion controls, you sacrifice precision in a new area; in a game that moves fast enough that you're worried that analog controls won't keep up, do we want to be waggling for quick moves like jumping, sliding, and grabbing?

I don't really understand what you are saying (Im assuming English isnt your first language), but if you read what the brief info there is about the controls, it seems like it is better suited to a controller. I still think the PC version will be the best, but just like I think playing Assassin's Creed with a keyboard would be janky, this type of game seems like you would want an analog stick for movement. It really isnt a problem, I can plug in my 360 or DS3 to my PC and play it.

Look im just saying this probably needs a fast response view/rotational system and the analog cursor is not ideal, but they're probably adjusting this to these controls. Still the mouse is probably the best way still

its not the movement that is the problem but, like i said, the rotational speed, unless there's some mechanized or automatic things in there i just see the mouse being the best system for this.

 

[Mash]

I think it's kind of sickening that everyone creams themselves over every generic FPS like Battlefield (opinion) but they don't give a shit about a truly unique new first person game that blends so many genres.

Kind of sickening.

Who is?
