Mirror's Edge
Quote:
Mirror's Edge is an upcoming first person action-adventure video game being developed by EA Digital Illusions CE (DICE), due for release on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 on November 11, 2008 in the US, and November 14, 2008 in the UK, and Windows-based PCs in late winter 2008.
The game was announced on July 10, 2007 and will be powered by the Unreal Engine 3 with the addition of a new lighting solution, developed by DICE.[2] The game has a realistic, brightly-colored style and differs from most other first-person perspective video games in allowing for a wider range of actions—such as sliding under barriers, tumbling, wall-running, and shimmying across ledges—and greater freedom of movement, in having no HUD, and in allowing the legs, arms, and torso of the character to be visible on-screen.
The game is set in a conformist dystopia in which communication is heavily monitored by a totalitarian regime, and so a network of runners, including the main character, Faith, are used to transmit messages while evading government surveillance.

I can't even being to tell you how excited I am for this one, folks. The atmosphere, art direction, music, everything about this game has me completely intrigued. Definitely a must buy for launch day. I've spoken to friends of mine that have actually played it first hand at a gaming convention, and they have nothing but good things to say about it. Can't wait!
