Lumiappaday #245: Mirror’s Edge demoed on the Nokia Lumia 900 #XboxLive
Mirror’s Edge is a console game that is now on the Nokia Lumia 900. It’s an Xbox Live title that appears in your Nokia Collections section. Hence why it does not yet have a link here as it is a Lumia Exclusive title.
It looks great and plays very well (I’ve only shown the demo in the video). It’s 131MB, so one of the larger games (download over WiFi). It’s a highly rated game on marketplace.

For a moment I thought “Wow, Mirror’s Edge for Windows Phone? Finally the first “real” Xbox Live title” but then I realized that it is just another mediocre smartphone games. The 2D adaption of ME’s gameplay looks really boring…
I know this game was never the hit that EA wanted it to be, but it doesn’t deserve such a smartphone pendant
Some people really couldn’t come to grips with ME’s first person platforming gameplay, so they actually preferred the 2D version. I’m not one of those people, I play Mirror’s Edge all the time (have it both on Origin and on Xbox), but I just couldn’t enjoy the 2D version on iOS.
That said, good to see EA supporting WP more. Now where the hell is Shift 2?
