We all have that one game or genre that never gets old and we return to time and time again.

What is it for you and why is that the case?

Mirrors edge 1.

The level design was just really good. There were many different ways to tackle various obstacles in the environment and the time trials had many routes you could take.

Now that I'm relatively good at the game I can beat the story levels in around 4 hours ish?

I like to revisit it from time to time.

What did you think of the second one? I liked how it was open world, though the story itself left a lot to be desired IMO

I thought the second was interesting. I didn't like it as much as the first but for what it was it was pretty good.

The way they made the open world didn't work very well in some ways. For example to get the player into new areas they had to funnel them through specific choke points. Additionally I wasn't a fan of forced combat.

However I thought the main missions and the graphics were high points. I enjoyed finding various collectibles/exploring and some time trials were actually a pretty good time. I hope one day they decide to revisit the series but I have a feeling it might be shelved for quite a long time.
