I think that you already mentioned all the games that I can think of.

Mirror's Edge if your looking for the first person perspective, Assassin's Creed and Prince of Persia for the third person ones. Sorry I can't be of more help.

You could always try the games like Tomb Raider or Uncharted (If you can get a PS3.)

While not the "Free Running" games you're looking for, they do have sections with it.

Wait for Prototype, the motion engine is based off of mocap of a parkour runner.

I thought they had made / were making a Parkour game.
Wasn't the Mark Eko game part Free Running?

Like I said, the motion engine in Prototype is based on parkour, so if you run into something like a concrete barrier you will automatically vault over it in a parkour style.

I believe there is a game called free running.

Yeah, there's some shitty, THPS-esque Free Running game for the PS2 as well, but don't bother with that.

Basically in your first sentence you named all the good ones (or ones people might like). Try replaying them until a better free running game comes out.

I've heard that the Aliens sections of the AVP games were a lot of free running, and were a lot of fun. But it moight get weird with all the wall running and such.

This year is the first year these types of games have appeeared. Assassain's creed, despite the whole asassain bit (which is in fact more like an optional minigame) mainly focuses on running about on the rooftops and fleeing from guards across the treets and rooves.
Mirror's edge, despite horrible design, focuses on free running to get away from police. Prince of persia the whole series, focuses on free running as a main point.
try those.

yeah, like biovoltage said you have already played all the good ones. Just have to wait for the new POP to arrive, you should get at least 15 hours out of that, depending the depth you go into it. I already finished it, the ending really leaves it wide open for a sequel which we can all look forward to :)
