In the future, we use the Xbox 360

(tags game, Xbox 360, Mirror's Edge)

I'm looking forward to two more games on the Xbox 360, but I don't think I'm even a hardcore game purchaser any more.

I first saw Mirror's Edge via Kotaku, and I am sold on this FPS concept. I looked at this video closely, and noticed that the target objects like pipes and planks turn color to indicate the path. I have to wonder what the control scheme is though. The Asian-chick protagonist is a (welcome but unneeded) plus, and at least it's not like that PC game where if you look down you see your own polygon boobs cleavage. Which game was that?

And I always wondered why the Xbox 360 didn't get those traditional menu-fighting gal-get games like the original Xbox (Angelic Concert, Cupid Bistro 1 and 2, Triangle Again, etc?) Of course there's Idolm@ster, but menu-fighting it ain't. Perhaps TimeLeap (タイムリープ) will fill the gap (thanks CannedDogs). Then again, games like these have poor story so I should just avoid it. This particular game on the PC seems to be rendered way less than 60 fps, though, so it might look terrible in comparison to Idolm@ster.
