  • alphabetagaga, on 08/08/2008, -6/+8I wouldn't quite say remade, but still pretty entertaining.
  • mrbabyleem, on 08/08/2008, -12/+2Saves me money!

    for those of you who dont know what mirrors edge is...
  • galvo, on 08/08/2008, -26/+1Old/10.
    • DanielAzarc, on 08/08/2008, -0/+9Time to get off the internet grandpa.
      • galvo, on 08/08/2008, -17/+1You're a ***** moron.
      • WoollyMittens, on 08/08/2008, -0/+11And you're a loudmouth who can only defend himself using cuss words.
  • ppktechno, on 08/08/2008, -17/+2Stupid game...
  • BestJaxx, on 08/08/2008, -3/+36When I saw the original trailer it looked like a Valve game.
  • Xtanto, on 08/08/2008, -6/+1Bit dull I think compared to other portal videos. I have seen the original mirrors edge also.
  • Frogee, on 08/08/2008, -0/+27This was a triumph? Maybe.
    Seemed a little slow paced for mirrors edge, still pretty cool. Props to whoever made that map.
    • sysop073, on 08/08/2008, -1/+11Hey, I'm making a note here: Huge Success
      • coyote1284, on 08/08/2008, -1/+5It's hard to overstate my satisfaction (with your comment)
  • MetalHaze, on 08/08/2008, -0/+30Seeing this video makes me realize how phenomenal the graphics in Mirror's edge are
    • RunnyBabbit, on 08/08/2008, -0/+5Certainly, but it's a little bit of an unfair comparison. The mapper that did the Portal incarnation didn't really do any lighting at all.
  • Shippwreck87, on 08/08/2008, -0/+41I was hoping there'd be cake behind the door :(
  • Linkin4, on 08/08/2008, -0/+13Mirrors edge is exciting to me because for some reason the idea of a clean looking city is enthralling to me, everything looks so pristine and white in mirrors edge, cool look.
  • modusop, on 08/08/2008, -0/+14Mirror's edge is what Aeon Flux should have been.
  • iDoraemon, on 08/08/2008, -0/+10Just not the same without the Asian girl, heh.
    • JazzFlight, on 08/08/2008, -0/+10I thought Chell was an asian woman in portal...
    • destron, on 08/08/2008, -2/+3Unfortunately, I don't dig Faith's eye tattoo.
    • eyefork2, on 08/08/2008, -0/+1Yeah I didn't like the tattoo either, it was too cliche/anime-like.
      • MainFram3, on 08/08/2008, -1/+0I didn't know such a cliche existed.
    • grapheads, on 08/14/2008, -0/+0Chell is based off Alésia Glidewell. Not asian I think.
  • s3xt0y, on 08/08/2008, -0/+3If you haven't already, you need to pre-order mirrors edge, that game is going to be awesome.
  • TVarmy, on 08/08/2008, -1/+2The Mirror's Edge people need to make a Portal Map Pack, and have it be an unlockable you can get for beating the game. Then, beating Mirror's Edge in Portal earns you an achievement.
  • MOates, on 08/08/2008, -1/+6Now you're thinking with portals!
  • chincopanda, on 08/08/2008, -9/+2Video is boring.
  • das7282, on 08/08/2008, -9/+2Kinda cool but what's "Mirror's Edge"?
  • TimeMachine1992, on 08/08/2008, -0/+1Wonder if the Aperture Science Handheld Portal Device will be available in Mirror's Edge....hm...
  • FoxOrian, on 08/08/2008, -0/+8I'm actually impressed as to how accurate that person remodeled the stage, it's nearly spot-on [other scenery not taken into account.]

    Pretty good eye for details and scale.
  • retral, on 08/08/2008, -6/+3Remade? it hasn't even been made yet.. how can something that hasn't been made(finished) be remade?
    • MeatBallsack, on 08/08/2008, -0/+3premade?
    • blackplastic, on 08/08/2008, -0/+4Because it's a remake of the level shown at E3? Therefore because it IS made?
  • McShr3dd3r, on 08/08/2008, -6/+5This was a triumph.
  • Arasaka, on 08/08/2008, -2/+9Damn, talk about a bad Portal player...
    • Remmiz, on 08/08/2008, -0/+1Yeah this guy is bad and he hasn't even heard of 3D skyboxes...would have made it 1000x better.
  • mohsenxp, on 08/08/2008, -6/+5boring.
  • ObeseSnake, on 08/08/2008, -3/+24People are saying this is boring but think about it for a minute...this guy made an entire level, in 3D, out of watching a trailer for another game. To be able to duplicate the textures, the scale of the buildings, etc. It's pretty impressive.
    • Remmiz, on 08/08/2008, -1/+4IMHO, it's not really that hard. A lot of mapping is done by re-creating from pictures and video.
    • MasterGrief, on 08/08/2008, -0/+4While I see where you're coming from, as a person who spent a great deal of time following the Halo PC modding community, I can say that this is nothing new. After that E3 Halo 2 trailer came out, the official Halo PC board went nuts and a team of modders banded together to build that New Mombasa level for use in multiplayer. They did a fantastic job with what they had, and if you ask me, the map they made was considerably better than anything I'd ever play in the real Halo 2 multiplayer later.

      I know this sort of thing didn't START with Halo PC, but I've seen it executed in an extremely impressive fashion with it, so I wanted to mention it.

      I found a simple flyover of the New Mombasa map and a poorly done recording of the map from first person; you can see both of those here: http://tinyurl.com/flyover and http://tinyurl.com/mapinfirstperson
  • dutchdude15, on 08/08/2008, -0/+1I'll take 3
  • BackFall, on 08/08/2008, -0/+1Yup, who needs shoes when you're thinking with portals.
  • Tophillious, on 08/09/2008, -0/+2Pretty awesome. Mirror's Edge is gonna be the *****
  • AzureRise, on 08/09/2008, -1/+2Cool level but the guy playing sucks.
    • se1zure, on 08/09/2008, -0/+1i think he was trying to traverse the level in a similar fashion to the trailer. and at the same time demonstrate all the detaisl. of course he could of just portal'd across half the map, but them you wouldn't see all the work he put into it.
      • AzureRise, on 08/09/2008, -0/+1There was plenty of opportunities for him to go fast using jumps and still show off the level. He did it at the beginning jumping on the portal on the ground to to build momentum. He could've kept a pattern going.
  • ONeilcool, on 08/09/2008, -0/+0Now I'd like to see a race. Portal girl vs. Mirror's Edge girl. Who will win
    • grapheads, on 08/15/2008, -0/+0Mirrors edge girl would ruin Chells ***** in a race.
  • Evi1d33d, on 08/09/2008, -0/+1Port the map into Team Fortress 2 and use Scout instead?
  • darkjolt, on 08/09/2008, -1/+1Mirror:

  • aoszkar, on 08/09/2008, -2/+1How did they do this?
    Can you play custom levels in Portal??
    So it wasn't a lie after all?
