Whaddya know. The king of guns and bullets doesn't think we've seen enough gunplay in Mirror's Edge. I disagree: I'd actually like to see less. I think the game's perfect right now: not letting you pocket guns, but rather using only what you disarm for a single clip. I dont want machine guns and crazy explosives.

i played the demo, and the game would be ruined if you used a lot of guns... not every game should have weapons as a main focus Cliffy. lol... it's all about running from the enemies, not easily gunning them down.

I want videos of you and your friends jumping off 5 story buildings, and grabbing pipes in mid-leap and running from live gunfire at the same time. sure you do parkour, to the level in ME? I don't think so.

anyways, TC, what do you expect Blezinski to say about any game? I bet he wants Link to have an AK-47 in Zelda.

i think your misinterpreting his version of parkour. anybody can parkour. it just means movement from point A to point B. i do it too. but i'm not delivering messages illegally to people in an urban utopia conveniently designed perfectly for parkour. oh btw. i do run from bullets ;)

Sounds like Cliffy is getting a little big-headed. The next Itagaki, perhaps?

No it doesn't need more gunplay. In fact, every time I disarmed someone I threw the gun away. Mirror's Edge is better without gunplay. But I don't think we can expect different from a guy who clutches to his toy weapon replica like a woman to her purse.

On the one hand, i think Cliffy is being a bit of an idiot here in totally missing what the game is about, nor am i surprised that the guy with the gears avatar agrees with him.

That said, I think we may be misinterpreting the article. if you actually READ it, i think that what he may be saying is that he wants to see more of how the gunplay works, as all DICE have shown so far, at the time of the interview with Cliff, was the parkour. I'm not sure if he's saying he wants more gunplay in the game, or if he just wants to see it.

Sounds like a pretty ignorant thing to say. Apparently he really just doesn't "get it". Like David Jaffe, it would be nice if he would focus more on his own games, than spend time on the internet mouthing off about what other people should and shouldn't be doing with their own. In other words, shutup and go start making Gears 3.

I don't really care what the guy thinks or says as long as he makes killer games. I can agree to the fact that, that quote was taken out of context.

Cliff has a point - it is going to be hard to get the Seriously achievement without more guns

.

Oh wait! Not all games measure themselves by the achievement requiring the most kills
