I don’t really know how to feel about this to be honest… I think it’s quite clever but it just feels a bit subversive.
What is it that I am talking about? Well I was just over at Destructoid reading about the upcoming time trial mode for Mirror’s Edge, it’s really a good read so click here to take a look.
Anyway I was going to post about the time trial mode and then I saw the ending comments on the post.
While the demo will consist of a single-player area, pre-ordering the game from select retailers will net you a code that will unlock a single Time Trial level of the game
So the demo is coming soon but the demo will be gimped unless you pre-order the game from selected retailers (who will not doubt not exist in South Africa)… can we complain that a demo is not fully featured?
It’s just a bit strange and like I said, I am not sure how to feel about it… I guess it’s innovative and that always gets a plus mark in my book.
Either way I am getting Mirror’s Edge, the game is looking fantastic.
