About this product

Product Information

In Mirror's Edge for the PlayStation 3, players take on the role of Faith in the city of Glass. Glass is a utopian city, free of crime and hatred. However, this utopian paradise was achieved with an iron fist, as the government spies on its citizens at all times. Faith is a runner, and it's her job to deliver physical messages from one person to another. Since the government can't track these messages, what Faith is doing is determined illegal. It's the transportation of one of these messages that sends Faith on the run. The campaign mode will take 10 hours for a seasoned gamer to complete. The game story was written by Rhianna Pratchett. Her other works include writing for games such as Tomb Raider and Heavenly Sword.The Mirror's Edge game for the PS3 had a release date of November 11th, 2008. In 2008, first-person action games all had similar gameplay, revolving mostly around guns. Mirror's Edge took a different approach, almost eliminating guns altogether. Faith's weapons are her fists and her flow. As a runner, her athletic abilities rival great athletes of any generation. Faith can jump great distances, shimmy down poles, run up walls, and slide under objects. At times, however, you may have to fight. The game gracefully blends the seamless parkour movements across rooftops and through buildings with stunning fighting action. In many cases, she knocks her opponents out with just one punch. Much of the gameplay in Mirror's Edge is about traversing from one location to another quickly. Developer Dice used motion capture software to ensure that Faith's movements were lifelike. Mirror's Edge for the PS3 is one of the few first-person games where you can see your character's forearms, legs, and shoes. After the story is complete, the fun is far from over. Publisher Electronic Arts added a Time Attack mode. This mode uses special maps that you'll only find here. In each level, you'll race against the clock for the fastest time. After finishing the level, you can upload your score to a global leaderboard. You can also download ghosts of other players to compete against on these leaderboards. The Mirror's Edge game for the PlayStation 3 features improved graphics. Game developer DICE took full advantage of the PS3's capabilities, adding improved character models and textures to this version. The first thing you'll notice about Mirror's Edge is its distinctive graphical style. The world of Glass is drawn in white and light blue hues. Red lines showcase the fastest route for Faith to run and any obstacles she needs to avoid. The soundtrack on this PS3 game is just as unique as its graphical style. Composed by Magnus Birgersson, it features a substantial amount of bass to get you pumped up. The theme song Still Alive by Lisa Miskovsky went on to become a hit among music fans and gamers alike. This Mirror's Edge game was a breath of fresh air in 2008 due to its emphasis on movement over guns. The Time Attack mode gives this game a near infinite amount of replay ability. If you're looking for an immersive PS3 game with a deep plot, this is an excellent choice.

  • Never played the game before, but heard it was among the best niche accomplishments for its generation and concept

    I haven't actually finished it yet, but I love what I'm seeing so far. I like Faith's character, and the combat/free-running game play suits her personality.
