Gaming History You Should Know – History of Mirror’s Edge April 19, 2020

Sunday is here, and if the world is ever going to resume some kind of sense of normality, it’s time we resumed our look at Gaming History You Should Know.

In 2008, EA did something they were rarely known for, they took chances on new IP. They released two major games that year, Dead Space and Mirror’s Edge. While I enjoyed Dead Space almost immediately after it launched, it would be a year before I sat down and played Mirror’s Edge for the first time. I don’t know what it was, the art style, the music, or the gameplay of that first game just gripped me and held on tight. I also loved playing the game on the iPhone and iPad. On the other hand, the more recent game, Mirror’s Edge Catalyst, never really sparked my attention and I have yet to play it.

YouTube Channel GVMERS, who we’ve highlighted in the past for their fantastic gaming history documentaries, made a documentary about this cult classic franchise.

Maybe now I should give Catalyst a look?
