Although it could easily be confused with a first-person shooter at first glance, it looks like Mirror's Edge will have only the tiniest bit of gunplay, and only if you choose to go that route. Mirror's Edge is more a game about exploration, puzzle-solving and melee action, built around about Faith's acrobatic abilities. As you'd expect, Faith can jump and duck, but she can also perform more complicated moves like powerslides, wall runs and jump kicks. Momentum will play a big role in Faith's abilities: get enough steam going and you'll be able to crash through a door or make an extra-long jump. For tricky maneuvers, the game will sometimes slow down at certain moments to give you the opportunity to be more precise and fine-tune your moves.
One cool aspect of Mirror's Edge is how the art design melds with the on-screen action. As Faith navigates a world dominated by silvers and blues, the color red plays a major role: when you look at something in the world and it turns red, that means you probably want to head in that direction, whether it's a fence or a pipe or, in one case, the landing gear of a helicopter chasing us across the rooftops. As far as we saw, there was no health bar or really any on-screen display of any kind; when you take any damage, the color simply desaturates from the world for a few seconds while you recover (hopefully).
