Mirror's Edge (PS3, Xbox 360)

image

Every so often, a game comes along that everyone should play, no matter what kind of gamer they are. Mirror's Edge is one such game. Its unusual approach to the first-person genre, stylish visuals and fast pace is quite unlike anything else available and as such is an experience that all game lovers should have. Unraveling the game's conspiracy is just a pretext for the exhilarating free-running and athletics that will have you traversing rooftops and catwalks with breathless glee. Mirror's Edge is also one of the few mature-themed games in which you truly can succeed by taking a non-lethal approach, a refreshing change from the glut of shooters on store shelves.

Up next: Master terrifying magic, save the world, and play with your dog.
