How To Fix Mirror's Edge

By Sinan Kubba at 3:55 PM on April 12, 2011

For how long must I wait? I know there’s something wrong. So the theme tune goes. It’s been 28 months since I free ran through the Mondrian reverie of Mirror’s Edge, yet still the game has no sequel. I know there’s something wrong. For if any game deserves a sequel surely it’s Mirror’s Edge. The game may be clumsily imperfect, but at its free-flowing best it is so refreshingly distinct. Yet its imprint on the industry remains so shallow. EA led us on with soundbites about a sequel in development only to blow us off by announcing halted production earlier...  read more

Mass Effect, Placed Head-To-Head

By Kirk Hamilton at 4:10 PM on February 2, 2011

As I mentioned in my review of the PS3 version of Mass Effect 2, it wasn't until I played the second game that I came to fully appreciate Jennifer Hale's great voice-over performance. Hale is the actor who plays the female version of the game's protagonist Commander Shepard, a version of the character affectionally referred by fans as "FemShep." Whether we chose to play her as a caring paragon or a queen-bitch renegade, Hale brings a welcome amount of guts and emotional range to her performance. But what's interesting about a game like Mass Effect is that it's possible to...  read more

Mass Effect 2 Review (PS3)

By Kirk Hamilton at 2:40 PM on January 31, 2011

When Mass Effect was released in 2007, buyers may have noticed a stamp on the box that read "Only on Xbox 360." BioWare's intergalactic RPG was touted as one of the highest-profile console exclusives of the generation—the acclaimed developer was returning to the sci-fi grounds they so thoroughly stomped in Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, and Xbox owners were going to get to have all the fun. ...  read more
