Mirror's Edge release imminent?

Mirror's Edge, the hotly anticipated first-person game from DICE, could possibly be releasing sooner than any of us thought. A new preview at VideoGameMedia ended with the following tidbit of information:


Too good to be true? Perhaps. After all, the first time we saw this incredible project in motion was only a few weeks ago at Sony Europe's press conference. Furthermore, nothing on DICE's official site or bigger sites such as IGN or Gamespot has said anything to confirm this. We'll just wait the next week or so to see if this story was legit, or if VGM was incorrect; either from misinformation or an attempt to draw attention to their site.

I know I'd prefer to wait till the holiday season to give DICE more time to polish it up and make sure everything works the way it should. Oh, and if anyone at DICE is reading - SIXTEEN PLAYER ONLINE DEATHMATCH, for the love of God.

If you have not yet heard of Mirror's Edge, check out the HookedGamers preview or the gameplay trailer below to get yourself pumped.
