Faith, the iconic heroine of Mirror’s Edge (Xbox 360, PlayStation 3), is more than just a pretty face. Ever wonder what made her become a runner, constantly risking her neck on the rooftops?

You might not believe it, but that spotless, gleaming city that we see in the trailers is the image of a dystopian world, held by fear and ruled by a totalitarian government. In fact, it was this government that caused the death of Faith’s mother.
