Rumors proven true, PS3 Mirror's Edge receives exclusive downloadable content!

December 04, 2008 in News comments 11

Some rumors were floating around concerning the PS3 version of Mirror's Edge a few months ago. Everything from it being a timed exclusive to getting its own downloadable content only on the console there were plenty of them. While the first is obviously false the latter appears to have had the grain of truth, DICE are developing a Time Attack course specifically for the PS3, a video is at the source if you want a glimpse.

Just wanted to pass along some news I received from EA today… Mirror’s Edge developer DICE is planning a special treat for PLAYSTATION 3 owners. When downloadable content for the game is released in late January, they’ll make an exclusive Time Trial map available free, only for PS3.

    Finally, it seems Sony has started to dish out cash for exclusive DLC.

      Nah, They didnt dish out anything. As XBOXOz cleared up DLC is available on both consoles.

      And even if Sony did pay for exclusive content, a time trial pack would have been a rip off to pay for.

    What a load of old trolope . .Read the link, the DLC is available for BOTH the Xbox360 and PS3 vis XboxLIVE and PSN:

    http://xboxoz360gamer.com/2008/12/05/mirrors-edge-new-pure-time-trial-map-pack-dlc-trailer/

    Shesses, this stupid blind-sided "fanboism" approach that some ppl have is now spreading to Game Grep . . Both platforms get the Time Trial packs . . .there's video of the 360 DLC as well as the PS content,and if you check the ACTUAL DICE?EA Press Release - it clearly states the item is available on BOTH
    platforms.

    Sorry guys . . .

    There's no real "exclusiveness" involved per-se', just both are time trial packs, with each having different "courses" and number of courses . . . Each will be getting more as time goes on.

    Did you just call me a fanboy? How am I a fanboy for reporting what I heard and saw? Blame the site for being so misinforming, and as you just said the news is technically true, just that the 360 will be getting exclusive content as well.

      Don't get so defensive. I don't think he was targeting you personally, if you just read his comment with a level head. XboxOZ360 is probably just picking at the way the article was worded, which is pretty misleading and can spread rumors whether you intended them or not.

      And the site is for PlayStation 3 fans, so it's definitely not going to be announced 360 DLC, now is it? ;P

        No he said "this stupid blind-sided fanboism approach that some ppl have is now spreading to Gamegrep". Which considering I am the submitter of the article seems to be aimed at me.

    No not at you , but at some of the comments we are getting in game grep now . . . You may have submitted the item, but the item wasn't the sources and the site that it came from WAS the one making it a onesided affa=ir . . Ppl then pick up on that and the next thing you know, you have a fanboi war all over someone not reading an article or the source correctly.

    SO it wasn't aimed at you. I'd just hate to see game grep turn into a N4g affair . . where biased ppl can vet the items they think warrant inclusion based on platform, not content. Which is something thatis killing sites like n4g etc.

      You really have no clue about Gamegrep do you. This Fanboy war you're talking about was always present since gamegrep was made in april of 07( I was here since it was made so I'd know).
      Where you think this is spreading to gamegrep, when it was already here, really makes no sense. It's just there's members here who can actually post intelligently then other places where its better then N4G and digg.

      Also this was old news anyway. I submitted the article stating DLC isn't exclusive to one console, where PS3 may get its own small exclusive content, the rest is going to be on both consoles. Which I'm assuming this article is supporting my article stating its true, its just they didn't exactly add the 360 to this.

      And tbh, I agree with Silver where it seemed your comment attacked him as well. And since you wasn't clear before hand I can see where Silver was upset.
