Donno i m lost!!
Actually no, even Mirror's Edge left me bored enough to leave it just a few hours after starting to play it. It may have had a good story but I just couldn't finish it, the pacing was just too slow for me to give a damn enough to continue.
mirror's edge is not the usual run-of-the-mill action fest most FPS are so maybe thats why u find it boring but for people who were looking for something new and fresh, its a memorable experience.

Hey, I'm not a real big fan of the action fest fps games myself and for the most part, playing Mirror's Edge was a breathe of fresh air. The parkour was a nice switch from the usual crappy run and gun gameplay but that wasn't enough to keep the entire game fresh, at least not for me.

I also saw how after a few hours, the whole parkour aspect started to dwindle down. Parkour is about getting from point A to point B using the fastest way possible, so there are usually different ways to get to them but you have the freedom to choose how you get there. While this proved true for the beginning of the game, it suddenly disappears a few hours in when you Need to do certain type of move to reach a specific place that you need to get to in order to progress the story. The whole parkour concept dies here. =/

actually this proves that u didn't give it a proper chance...its true that the general path is fixed but how u tackle the obstacles is what makes a day-n-night difference. just do a normal run of some certain part of the game urself and then watch a speed run of the same on youtube. ul be amazed at how people found shortcuts and slashed upto 80% of time a normal person would take and thats just the gameplay aspect. this game is much more than just gameplay. i would explain this to u but don't wana derail this thread more than it already is.

I would absolutely love a Mirror's Edge 2 on this engine. Even though I didn't finish the first game because of repetitiveness, i'm still a huge fan of the concept that it brought to the table.

Bf4 tops gamestop preorder charts in 3 days. Hell yeah! Suck this gta and the last of us. Xbox 360 version leading the charts.
Guess console gamers are too ignorant to release that it is the pc version which they are seeing. Lol

I wonder when this trend of making games look like Bland Hollywood Blockbusters would end.

Yeah but sales have pretty much have no meaning. Unless you want to admit the COD > BF.
COD died 2 years ago as people just played its campaign where multiplayer is just nothing simple gun and run to which people get bored so fast but on other hand BF3 sale is still goes on and there DLC have worth where in COD dlc , no one even remember their names or i even don't know is there any DLC of it or not even there are many F2P shooter on PC which is much better then COD if some one like to play some gun and run gameplay as they also offer new guns etc in them (sm1) COD only had hit sale at their launch but BF3 sale is sustain with time being and now BF4 is the BIG hit .

Died? lol wut? Just cause you aren't in the circle of CODs fan base and don't follow any news on the game, doesn't mean its dead. It's very much alive and still kicking BF's ass in sales. MW3 has sold almost twice as much as BF3 has, and BF3 was released a month earlier. And unlike BF, COD at least makes some decent singleplayer campaigns that get a small following, like MW's story line.

COD isn't dead and won't be for a very long time. BF is trying to get sales like COD by becoming like it. They're now trying to appeal to the close-quarters adrenaline junky players, they also started adding TDM mode as well. Ever since BF: BC2, BF has been in a decline by its own standards. It's less team focused now, with everyone running around trying to be a lone wolf just like in COD. They try to add some team focused elements into their gameplay but ultimately fail in doing so cause they never support that kind of gameplay. A lone wolf trying to gun down everything in sight is now just as effective as playing in a team group.

So even if, BF manages to kill COD and that's a big if, they'll have accomplished nothing except replacing COD's spot.

there is something called Squad instead of team squad in BF , squads make team and as i mention above games didnt sale on the bases of SP and for that everyone DEV focusing on multiplayer instead of singleplayer . SP is just icing on cake where cake is made my MP and as far close quarter well there are only 2-3 vehicle base map where hard to find enemies otherwise all maps are close combat (not close quarter though like COD where mostly kills are on point black) its is just about to understand the game and on PC its 64 vs 64 maps is the beauty of largescale gameplay which give freedom to make kills from different pattern rather than just gun and run . COD never was and never will because as they still stand on same old engine .

I can speak with utmost certainty that you haven't played the pc version. Your points may apply on the console version but they go down the drain as far as the pc version is concerned.
