Mirror's Edge Wanted Poster
A quick search didn't yield anything that looked related, and various Google searches have turned up no related results. Since I've found nothing else on this, I'm posting this here. The information on these posters has apparently already been sent out in a newsletter here [link], with some slight changes.
It's a crappy quality picture because I took this with my cellphone, however, I have one of the posters and will scan it as soon as I can access a scanner.
The paper isn't 8.5 x 11, (it's smaller) and it's also slightly glossy, leading me to believe that it's probably an official advertisement, and not just a fan's work.
As I haven't actually described what you're seeing yet, the following image is of some wanted posters of Faith.
And here's a scan of the poster / flyer (finally):
Higher resolution links are here:

Re: Mirror's Edge Wanted Poster
Ahhh thats pretty cool. Is that at your school or something? Ha ha I would be extatic if I walked past that bill board (Or what ever you call it) and saw that. For some reason seeing something like that outside of the internet/console/PC/GameStop, really gets me stoked. It makes me feel less like a nerd and yet more like one at the same time!

I posted a scan of the poster, it's in the first post now. Yes, it was on campus at USC (University of Southern California).

Re: Mirror's Edge Wanted Poster
I go to Oklahoma State and i noticed two of those last night, but they had been ruined by the rain. Somehow they had blown out of the library and gone outside. The was one i found this morning under the campus newspaper when i picked it up out of a newspaper rack. EA was at USC and OSU within the last 2 months for an NCAA Football Tourney so you think that is when these were handed out to the campus?

Re: Mirror's Edge Wanted Poster
Nah, I'm pretty sure it's more recent. The five that I knew the location of (I took one of them, so, four) have all disappeared. They were in the same building, and I told a few friends about them, so that's probably why.
I know that someone who was in one of my classes last year works with EA, and helps promote their games, so I would think that they probably had him do it (here) or sent someone else. He handed out Army of Two bandanas and dogtags to promote it last semester.
I love when companies do things like this.

Re: Mirror's Edge Wanted Poster
I just saw this on Kotaku.com...
I was disgusted on how late they were.
Like i only read their site because it was feature on AOTS (attack of the show).
And it is good. Much of the info is recent but the info i care about is sooo late.
ALL HAIL QUAZU!

Re: Mirror's Edge Wanted Poster
Kotaku posted it? Haha, awesome! I just submitted it as a tip a couple of hours ago. I was going to send it to them before posting it here, actually, but I wasn't quite sure what to do. I never have brought unknown game-related information to the internet community before. :]

Re: Mirror's Edge Wanted Poster
Hey, I'm actually the guy who put these posters up. I'm glad you noticed them. There are 40 different college campuses with EA reps that promote games not only with posters but with game demos and tournaments. We always have tons of shirts and free copies of games to give away.
All of these reps have fan pages or groups on facebook where they post when these events are, mine at USC is called "EA at USC" http://www.facebook.com/pages/EA-at-USC/25276921159
For Mirror's Edge, all of these campuses that you found these posters at are having a "Faith" character running around handing out posters. If you get a photo or video with her you can win a free copy of the game, so I encourage you guys to check it out.

Re: Mirror's Edge Wanted Poster
It seems that Kotaku is late on nearly everything, but quick on all things!
How does this make sense? Well, it doesn't really!
But they are slow with Mirror's Edge, but the smallest thing about Gears and it's up there straight away!
