About Mirror's Edge
Mirror's Edge is a first-person parkour adventure game. Faith, the game's protagonist, is a messenger who navigates city rooftops to reach her objectives. Digital Illusions CE, the game's developer, hoped to create the impression of "being in an action movie, instead of playing it." Seen through Faith's eyes, the environment is divided into useful objects and those that aren't. Items that may help her overcome obstacles, such as a staircase, a drainage pipe or a pile of crates, appear red.Gamasutra: The Philosophy of Faith: A Mirror's Edge Interview (November 7, 2008)What is Parkour?
Parkour is a sport in which participants use physical movement to overcome obstacles as quickly and efficiently as possible. Created in 1988 by a French teen named David Belle, parkour has since developed into an extreme urban sport. Using the city landscape, participants jump from walls, launch themselves over gaps and perform other acrobatics to travel from one location to the next. The goal is to move fluidly while finding original ways to navigate the landscape.HowStuffWorks: How Parkour Works-
