Mirror's Edge: full-resolution screenshots from DICE's revolutionary FPS

Tiscali Games sports the first two screenshots (not low-res scans, which were posted before) from DICE's upcoming revolutionary FPS Mirror's Edge alongside an explanation. Full translation follows for those that repeatedly complain that site is not in English:

Mirror's Edge swore to revolutionize the way characters move in FPS: that's the premise of the DICE's latest's projects, authors of the Battlefield series. Only now authors have released the first two screenshots.

To understand what's going on, one has to open up the latest issue of Games for Windows magazine, where the game's producer Owen O'Brien explains: "Shooting will play an important role in the game, but Faith will have to rely on her parkour-like movements to survive in the metropole." The screenshot comes from the first level, where she's just finished a rooftop-run and is now sliding down a glass roof while under fire by a police chopper. "It'll feel like the Casino Royale chase scene," adds O'Brien.

To better understand the intuitive controls of the game, it is suggested that you check out the article from EDGE which was reprinted on Next Gen last August.
