Against this dystopian backdrop, a conspiracy thriller plays out, with Faiths sister framed for murder.
InMirrors Edge,the almost complete lack of guns allowed Graces strength and skill to take centre stage.
It shouldnt be forgotten, however, that not everything inMirrors Edgeworked.
That she wasnt caucasian, male or overtly obsessed with machine guns alone made her stand out.
After years of almost total silence, a sequel toMirrors Edgewas finally announced at E3 last year.
And at this years expo, DICE released a video which showed off its current work in progress.
Faith still doesnt pack a firearm, but then, she doesnt particularly need one.
As audio director James Slavin puts it, Shes a projectile.
She hits fast and hard, and then she moves on.
Even today, 2008sMirrors Edgeremains one of the quirky highlights from the last generation.
