I just an XBOX 360!

Huzzah! ^_^ And I just got done playing a few hours of Mirror's Edge today... I have never felt my heart pound so much from a single game, and ran through so many opponents opening fire without so much as firing one shot in return. If this were Half Life, I would have sniped them out of existence... here, I just run, click and throw the gun away O_o.

The graphics are incredible, albeit I think my old T.V. might be a lower resolution then they were expecting (I have a hard time reading some of the letters because they're over-pixelated). Red Faction and Armored Core look pretty incredible as well. Anyways, I'm going to fall asleep. My body feels like it's been free-running all day when I haven't even broken 2 m.p.h. on foot XD.

Hooray for digital exercise!

As an old-school FPS fan I have to recommend the XBLA port of Perfect Dark. I do not have an X360 so I can't get it. :|

Also Mirror's Edge is indeed very awesome. I wish I owned it.

Yeah, my heart beat pretty fast the first time I noticed that I had ran off a sky scraper.

Mirror's Edge is a great game. I'm still waiting for the sequel.
I'm glad your enjoying the 360.

My one gripe about Mirrors edge, they turn it less into a parkor game and more into a straight shooter later on. Its still pretty awesome

This. If they had a sequel where it was only delivery type stuff, it'd be my favorite game. XD You can't do cool stuff if people are shooting at you constantly. (They should have realized this. I mean, look at all the skateboard games. No one is shooting yet they still sell! At least, they keep making more of them... ▬_▬ *never bought a skateboard game*)

Anyways, I'd recommend Armored Core. You don't get FMP! CQC, but the customization and over all play is good. In 4, at least. I'm still trying to get my hands on the latest copy.
