Mirror’s Edge Trophy Guide

Mirror's Edge
Trophy Guide
Created by xxKnightmarExx   (PSN: KingNafelianX)

Welcome! Welcome one and all to a very special guide of mine. My first guide!
Another reason that this guide is so important to me is because it is for the first game that
I have managed to platinum. Mirror's Edge.
The other reasons that I decided to write this guide out are…
1. There is currently no other M.E guide available on the website.
2. This game is uniquely awesome.
3. Everyone deserves this platinum. =)

So then, for your own help I have grouped the trophies into catergories containing similar
trophies. These are as follows:

 
Story – Trophies that are earned by playing through the story mode.
Collectables – Trophies that are earned by finding the hidden runner bags.
Time Trials / Speedruns – Trophies that are earned by finshing TT's and SR's.
Movement – Trophies that are earned by stringing together different moves.
Combat – Trophies that are earned by fighting enemies.
Others – The few remaining trophies.

* Note * This guide WILL NOT include the Pure TT Trophies.
