Since E3 ’08 we have known about I Am Alive and since then we haven’t known much about the game, but it looks like UbiSoft is ready to come out about the title. This news comes from the cover article of GamesTM, which is about I Am Alive. And as it turns out that, Raymond isn’t as involved the title as we where led to believe.

The article reveals that the team over at Darkworks, best known for survival horror game Cold Fear, has no idea how that rumor got started. But, in Raymond rumored place stands senior producer Alexis Goddard.

“We encourage the players to use tactics, diversion, and discretion,” said Goddard, mentioning that an empty shotgun can be very persuasive if enemies don’t realize it’s out of ammo.

As for comparisons to Mirror’s Edge that will undoubtedly be brought about by the game’s first-person platforming and use of violence as a last resort?

“We wanted the player to really feel the power of Mother Nature, to feel the danger coming from the collapsing towers and devastating rifts, feel the chaos happening all around him. There’s nothing like a first-person view to create that kind of emotion.”

Well, this holiday season isn’t as white as it should of been for video game publisher and developer EA, but besides all of its problems they processed to try an fulfill the needs of their Mirror’s Edge fans.

Yesterday, EA confirmed that Mirror’s Edge will be seeing a follow-up, but on the downside, it’s sad to see the company announcing this in the face of a disappointing holiday sales rate.

“While we saw significant improvement in the overall quality of our key products this year, we are disappointed that our holiday slate is not meeting our sales expectations,” said EA CEO John Riccitiello to GI.biz. “Given this performance and the uncertain economic environment, we are taking steps to reduce our cost structure and improve the profitability of our business.”

However, despite slow sales the warm critical reception afforded to Mirror’s Edge will ensure a sequel.

“Many times with a new intellectual property, the first edition doesn’t generate the units that subsequent editions could generate,” Riccitiello continued, “Mirror’s Edge is one that was very strongly reviewed, that one’s going to go forward. We’re probably going to look into some issues around the design to make sure strong IP is married with strong business.”
