A team at DICE showed EA a prototype that was "declined", according to a Eurogamer Sweden translation of a Press 2 Play TV report.

"Patrick [Soderlund - EA driving and shooting game boss] acknowledges that Mirror's Edge didn't match up to their expectations regarding sales, and that has stopped the sequel that has been in development," declared the report, published originally in December.

"EA was shown a prototype, but declined with askance. The project has been stopped - involved parties at DICE are working on something else now. Patrick himself seems to have Mirror's Edge near his heart, but they are not in the business of charity."


I'm going to go cry in a corner now. Hopefully my tears will fill my room and drown me

You are a faggot.

Hopefully Dice will redeem themselves with Battlefield 3.
If only slightly.

I honestly hated mirrors edge.
It was a waste of time to try and develop a second one, the sales from the first one sucked balls, and they attempted to make a second one.
That was really stupid on their part.

Just because you hated it doesn't mean they shouldn't make another.
There is people out there that love the game thats who they are making it for.
How do you know the sales sucked balls?

It was over-hyped, within the first week I believe it was 45% of the copies had either been returned or sold back.
EA was forced to make cuts because of its crappy sales.

1 million copies were sold.
45% of 1 million is 450,000.
450,000 subtracted from 1,000,000 is 550,000.
Not enough to maintain a multi-million dollar company, even though dead space was released around the same time.

Now multiply 550,000 by like.. 40-50$? That's how much money they made no?

Not enough to support a multi-million dollar company and their hundreds of employees, and utility costs, and shipping costs, and future game development.
Probably only made like 10mill outta the whole shebang.

it's bullshit though. lack of sales were only because people are too stupid to try something new and too shit to get good at a new concept. Mirror's Edge was completely unlike anything else on the market, and it's sucks big fat donkey balls that there's not going to be a sequel that expands and fixes all the problems in the previous. DICE should just break away from EA and make ME2 anyway.
