  • Abstract:  Innovation is risk, and Mirror's Edge puts everything on the line. In the opening cinematic, lithe protagonist Faith tells us of the Flow, the way that Runners -- information couriers in the game's sterile, totalitarian metropolis -- see the city. "Roo...

  • A unique and refreshing gaming experience, freerunning gameplay is amazing, graphics are awesome.
  • Level layouts are poor in some areas, questionable design choices ruin the flow of the game, combat feels tacked on.
  • Amazing visuals, a slick control scheme and sublime free-running gameplay combine to form a unique and fascinating game that delivers some genuine moments of "Holy crap, did I just do that?" thrills. However, some poorly designed levels, awful combat ...

  • The inclusion of Parkour is really well done and feels natural to use. Time trial mode adds longevity and allows you to explore the best aspects of the game. Audio is well done.
  • Single-player mode feels short. The animated cut scenes are disappointing.

  • Completely original and innovative; The colourful, and polished world looks beautiful; Powerful music and sound effects add to the already pumping atmosphere; The time trials can really add length to the total lifetime this game can offer you!; in one word, 'EPIC' campaign!
  • The cartoon cutscenes soon get old, making it great to see the real world again; A short campaign leaves us desperately wanting more.; Glaring sunlight and white building are a bit too light.

  • Breath of fresh air for the FPS, fast paced
  • Getting the wrong jump can be annoying, thin storyline, no guns
  • It might be short, but Mirrors Edge is still really good with plenty of pace, youll probably have to go for a run afterwards to slow down ...

  • A flawed gem, but a gem nonetheless. Irritating it may be, but the artistry and ambition of DICE has to be admired. Mirror’s Edge is a thrilling, brave and progressive piece of work that everyone should experience. 8.0/10Print this pageUser reviews...

  • Incredible chases, New way of playing games, Fresh, vivid look
  • Slow parts are weak, Disarming feels imprecise, Gunplay feels awkward and wrong
