During my short stint as a copywriter at EA, I was privy to several brainstorming sessions for IP that are just now hitting the market. One of which was Mirror’s Edge, which myself and a couple of other like-minded cynics around the water cooler liked to refer to as “Mirror’s Wank.” Here’s what I can recall of the first meeting.

    Does the main character have downs syndrome? She kind of looks it in some pics.

    HA! Robbo. Believe me, I am no fan of the suits either, but I have to say, this actually pays tribute to parkour, free-running or whatever you call in your particular country. Parkour was developed by Sebastian Foucan and David Belle and former is who the whole thing is modeled after. As far as Madonna’s video, she’s just staying true to her culture-vulture form much like Ecko with ‘getting (throwing) up’. Vomitous. They were both jocking Luc Besson’s B13 which is an insane flick. I’m on the last level and its an amazing game.
