Mirror's Edge

This weekend i've been playing a video game called Mirror's Edge, it's all about free running around a city which has become a kind of ignorant Matrix-style way of life. It's pretty short but it's the most engaging game that i've played so far in this current (rather un-inspirational) generation of games, it's rekindled my faith a little in the industry.

I thought that i'd post some footage of the game as it may offer a bit of inspiration in regards to this latest brief, the game itself is a CG model world with some brilliant textures....but at the start and end of each level the cut scenes are vector animations. Have a look-see.






2010 is certainly looking like a promising year for video games. Fingers crossed.
