NSFW: My Therapy While Playing Mirror’s Edge

By Joe Haygood | November 6, 2008

Anyone that listened to the podcast this week knows that Electronic Arts was nice enough to send over a review copy of Mirror’s Edge.  While I am under embargo, I feel there are two things I am safe saying without stepping on that embargo.  First on is that the game is gorgeous.  The second one is that the game sometimes approaches Megaman 9 levels of difficulty.  So to blow off my irritation when I spend 20 minutes trying to figure out one part of Mirror’s Edge, I have been using the Jeff Gerstmann Megaman 9 fail video.  Watch as Jeff dies over and over in Megaman 9, with each death pushing him into more and more profanities.

So enjoy, and remember that if you are watching this at work, you might want to dial the volume on your speakers down a notch.  You have been warned.  And yes, it is about a month old, but it is still funny, and it helps me through the rough times.
