Think of it this way.

Delay means they'll have access to better tech in the future which means better visuals to be rendered by a sexy new engine.

I guess that's true. But you'd think they're developing it on UE3 like the first one. I think Mirrors Edge looks perfect the way it is. The characters were incredibly well made and the levels were awesome (aside from how empty the city felt).

Well, everything was good except PhysX. If they could find an alternative that didn't lag ass, that would be nice.

Oh god yeah, I remember when I first got the game, physx caused blue screen of death for everyone including me. Trusty patch from EA the next day.

Well, DICE wanted to use their Bad Company 2 engine for Mirror's Edge but they couldn't finish it in time and EA made them use Unreal 3. Maybe for Mirror's Edge 2 they can use the Battlefield 3 engine?

Meh...I prefer UE3 over Frostbite. Then again, BF3 is supposed to use the new Frostbite so it might turn out to be better than UE3.

There's already a gameplay teaser for Battlefield 3, and it looks way better than UE3 from what is seen so far.

Still...I think Mirrors Edge should stay as an UE3 (or UE4 if it's out before ME2 begins development) series. It just feels...right...

PS: I've seen the gameplay teaser, but it's so brief with the scenes I can't really get a good look at things. I want to see a full fledged gameplay trailer before I make any real judgements. It did look pretty detailed though.
