Product Description

Platform: Xbox 360

In a city where information is heavily monitored, agile couriers called Runners transport sensitive data away from prying eyes. In this seemingly utopian paradise, a crime has been committed and now you are being hunted. You are a Runner called Faith - and this innovative first-person action-adventure is your story. Mirror’s Edge delivers you straight into the shoes of this unique heroine as she traverses the vertigo-inducing cityscape, engaging in intense combat and fast paced chases. With a never before seen sense of movement and perspective, you will be drawn into Faith’s world. A world that is visceral, immediate, and very dangerous. Live or die? Soar or plummet? One thing is certain, in this city, you will learn how to run.

Platform for Display:Xbox 360
Fun:   
Mirrors edge is a unique game, with a setup that you'll be hard pressed to find mimiced elsewhere. The story follows Faith, a messenger in a Orwellian touched future, were surveillance is everywhere and the police overwhelmingly an arm of powerful corporations. After nearly being gunned downed while delivering an innocuous message, Faith encounters her sister Kate, who has been framed for the murder of a Mayoral candidate.

The mechanisim of Mirrors edge is entirely first person, with stomach dropping leaps and parkur acrobatics carrying Faith from rooftop to rooftop. The voice guiding her is Merc, who at provides more commentary than omniscient directions. The path forward is given an overall tone, and Faith has "runner vision" where ineractive objects glow a blood red color. While the setup is a tad repetitive, its uniqueness grants it a lot of leeway. The backdrops are city skyline de jour, having the appearance of a futuristic skyscape painting. The effect is still real enough that you'll get an adrenaline rush when you fall.

The voices are well acted, though rather calm considering the gunfire and the near death falls. The sequences are cel-shaded in the style of XIII, though almost too cartoony.

The story shapes up well, though it is rather short, and the gameplay is exciting, and just frustrating enough you'll be compelled to complete levels just for the expereince of doing so. While some of the graphics are somewhat flat, thats a small nit in an otherwise fantastic deviation from the status quo for adventure games.

Coolest most fun game ever! January 30, 2010
Platform for Display:Xbox 360|Amazon Verified Purchase
Fun:   
The controls are awesome and the story is really cool. The graphics are awesome even on my square tv that were gonna upgrade sometime. The extent of places you can go, things you can do, objects you can climb and jump from, is just amazing.

Platform for Display:Xbox 360
Fun:   
Mirror's Edge was one of those titles that I have been interested in for a long time, but I just never got around to picking it up. I'm so glad I finally took the plunge and bought it! The main game is short - very short. I'm sure that it could be accomplished in one long sitting. However the achievements in it keep you coming back for more. The graphics and physics engine in the game are some of the best in any first person shooter which is a very bold claim. Play through the game a few times, as the levels become VERY short once you begin to know what you're doing, and when you think you've become great at the game use the option to download "ghosts" of other players on speed runs of levels. You will learn that there are so many more ways of getting around in a level than you initially thought.

My only gripe about the game is that the cutscenes between levels aren't using the in game engine. Instead, they took a strange choice and went with cartoon animation that is really similar to an esurance commercial. Somehow it fits, but it definitely adds a break to the story. Also noteworthy is that some people may experience motion sickness from this game! It didn't bother me - I personally thought it was just amazing how realistic the camera work was. However my friends brother had to stop watching him play this game.

I heard that there is a small team working on Mirror's Edge 2, so a sequel for this fantastic game is probably under way. There's a great franchise here and I really hope that rumor is true. Do yourself a favor and pick this game up. It's not a shooter - although you can get guns if you like - Mirror's Edge breaks the genre boundries and created a fantastic new experience.
