oh hey I'm in the bit that was shown in the trailer. Nowhere in the game felt new or something I hadn't seen
Similar problems with movies. There are some movies that have three cool or funny scenes which are shown to death in trailers and you have seen anything worth seeing before the movie even started. Its worse for games because there are lots of gameplay vids on gametrailer ...
I think a common criticism of Mirror's Edge was the short and not very varied campaign and the thin story. A varied game with an exciting story will in general have better chances to survive the trailers.
