TallSilhouette on 06 October 2024
Had a compulsion to return to the Mirror's Edge universe. Man, the first game still holds up so well. They say that stylized art ages much better than photoreal but games like it go to show you that great art direction transcends such boundaries. Negative reception kept me from playing Catalyst back in the day so this was my first time playing it. Some criticisms are valid but over all I have to say it's pretty underrated. The combat and story are lacking and it still crashed on me a few times, but the platforming has never been better and the city is a joy to explore. Based on its lack of success I doubt we'll get a third entry but I'd still love one. Some games just have style, man...
