When I think of Mirror's Edge, I think of its spacey soundtrack by Swedish electronic artist Solar Fields. I loved when EA revealed the sequel at E3 and they used a song in the trailer that was new but clearly connected to the music of the original.

As I get older and more jaded, I'm more interested in "interesting" games than "good" games. So this is right up my alley.

With how much we argue about kids today being desensitized by violent games, it's nice to know plenty of kids still love Mario.

I guess it's impossible for anything to be written on the internet about non-white people without commenters pointing out "look it's non-white people!"

Whenever I'm about to think a videogame character is sexy, I realize "oh wait, this is a fictional woman, most likely drawn by a man." So when you look at Tharja, you're essentially looking at the fap material of some male game artist at Intelligent Systems.

Of course this is the very first comment on this article.

So it'd basically be a grimdarker version of Lego Lord of the Rings.

I'm glad they took the number out. The fewer games with numbers in their titles, the better.

Year Walk is great, but it's hardly the first high-profile Swedish game.

This is awesome. Hope they create something great.

I just read the first trade paperback of Matt Fraction's Fanatstic Four / FF. I definitely enjoy FF more than Fantastic Four so far, but they're so intertwined that I'll keep reading both.

Other M was an aberration, but it wasn't made by Retro Studios. Retro still has a perfect track record with Metroid.

So now Nintendo has publicly acknowledged both Metroid and F-Zero as "series we like, but... nah."

I'm not saying you should agree with this game. I'm saying I'm proud of the fact that games are now seen as a legitimate platform for sociopolitical commentary.

Maybe if you love Lego, you'll also love... Mega Bloks.

It's fantastic that we're at the point when games can be used as political statements, just like other art forms that came before. I wish people could stop being butthurt long enough to realize how awesome that is, regardless of whether you agree or disagree with this game's statement.

I agree. First-person puzzlers are a great concept. But the similarities between this and Portal go deeper than that.

Really? Swastikas are (mainly) only offensive to Jews?

I want to like this, but I don't think I can look past all the glaring similarities to Portal.

I wonder if there'll be Lego sets based on the movie.
