Mirror's Edge has an creative and Unique gameplay and great Visual Design, great sound effect, great main story.........
The Story
the main story is straightforward but interesting, the presentation is weak, the characters personality are weak, the dialogs ain't so impressive, and there is animated cut scenes which are cool, the maps are few, the story is too short 4h, they should have worked more on the story.
The Game Play
The best part of this game is the game play, the way you can run, jump is so exciting, the game play is base on speed and momentum, when you try to escape as fast as you can is eminently thrilling, unfortunately Mirror's Edge has lack of action, you spend most of your time on tedious jumping puzzle or hazy objective, the gunfire is weak, the hand to hand combat ain't so impressive, the slow motion is handy, overall it's enjoyable.
The Graphic
The art and visual design is amazing, really great colors and visual contrasts, the environment looks so clean and beautiful and it delivered the bleakness of an authoritarian society to the gamer, the textures ain't so good, and the physics is simple.
The Music
The sound effect is great like Faith's breathy heaves and plodding footsteps, soundtracks is great, the voice acting is superb and the music is different from other games.
