Mirror's Edge review (PlayStation 3)

Reviewed November 15, 2008

Jonathan Stark says: "The game does a lot of things right, things that every bone in my gamer body tells me shouldn't work.

teradio says: "Dan McKenney – You might be looking to play a new first-person shooter? If you are, that's cool. There's plenty of options, so take your time.

The one being Mirror's Edge, a surprisingly creative new IP from the Battlefield devs Digital Illusions CE."

ultrablue says: "Background/story: Mirror’s Edge is set in an unnamed near future city, where all forms of communication are monitored by the local government. The only way to get messages through unchecked is through Runners, parcour practitioners who run through the city sky line in order to deliver information. You play as Faith, one of these runners, who early on in the game exposes a political conspiracy and is on a journey to expose the truth and her sister for being tried for murder. "
