I just have to vent a little: today I received my second pre-order bonus code for Mirror’s Edge. The first one was for the demo (which won’t be out until the 7th) and this one was to download two tracks off the Mirror’s Edge soundtrack from musicofmirrorsedge.com.
I opened the site with Google Chrome and entered my code. Then I accidentally clicked one of the songs instead of right-clicking it which resulted in a new page with the Quicktime plugin playing the song. So I hit “back”, but because of how Chrome works (not loading pages with posted data from cache) my code was resent and, since you’re only supposed to enter the code once, I was thrown out of the site (with no trace of the page in the cache). With my code already used I can’t get back in. I could save the song that was opened with Quicktime. Luckily I had clicked the original verison of the theme song, which was the track I wanted anyway, but it still annoys me
.
Anyway, the theme song “Still Alive” sung by Swedish artist Lisa Miskovsky is great. I downloaded the Mirror’s Edge ringtones and could hear that the remix I missed out on wasn’t that great.
Ringtones and wallpapers are available on mirrorsedge.com.
I can’t wait for this game! At least I have Ratchet & Clank: Quest for booty to play until Mirror’s edge is released
Sorry for this totally incoherent post
Update: yaaay! Webhallen (where I pre-ordered) sent me a new code

Where did you pre-order? I preordered mine from Gamestop and they did not inform me of the code for the songs. I only have the code for the demo’s time trial unlock.

I ordered at Webhallen which is a Swedish shop. They didn’t inform about this code beforehand and it was only sent out today, so it will probably be sent to everyone. The site where you download the songs is multilingual so it’s most likely a global offer.

Mirrors edge seems interesting. I saw the Tokyo Game Show trailer and it’s…original.

Yeah, this game looks great. I just hope it lives up to my expectations.
But I finished Quest for Booty yesterday, so now I have nothing to play (well, I do have other games, but nothing that I feel like playing right now). Perhaps I’ll get Little Big Planet. It’s not out yet here, but since it was just (re-)released in the US, it should be out soon.

Eh. I think Little Big Planet seems creative and interesting. Like X-play (tv show) said at E3, it’s going to be a great game with lots of originality, just to have fun with friends. Pretty much means you have to play Online to have fun forever lol.
All I really play for PS3 is Call of Duty 4. Somehow, it’s just so perfect, I’ve been playing it online since January. I’ve nothing to play for my PSP (except these AWSOME PSP VIDEOS, well, and 14 singles and 4 albums of High and mighty color).
But anyways, I don’t think I’m going to pick up Mirrors Edge. I really can’t wait for Final Fantasy XIII in 2009 though.

Yeah, FFXIII is the game I’m looking forward to most. I was thinking of waiting for that game before buying the PS3, but I got it anyway. I play COD4 a lot too, but not online. I mostly play split screen with my buddies.
I mostly use the PSP for videos now too. The last game I bought was FFVII Crisis Core, which I finished during the summer. There aren’t any good games for it right now.

Crisis core is probably the best game I have for my PSP (well, I also have Tekken:DR but I don’t play it much). It took me a few months to beat it because I wanted to do all of the missions. I stopped playing for two months then just mashed my way to the end (where I cried. It’s that great). I have FFXII collector’s edition, but I never play it. But yeah, I really want Monster Hunter Freedom 2. The way it looks, I think I would be stuck playing it forever.
Speaking of COD4, I learned yesterday and today that some kids at my school play it too. That just made it all the better.
