I've tried the Xbox demo before and looked good.
I tried the PC demo last night and it looked really gorgeous, all settings at max. PC will always have an advantage in that part.

But yeah, the camera is not the best there, even in the PC where you can move more easily with the mouse that camera doesn't work well all the time.

Great game, but unfortunately not part of the promotion.

EDIT: Oh wait, they've added more games since I checked this morning. Yes definitely get Retro Game Challenge.

Thats a pretty good price. Is the game worth it?

Again. The outpouring of love for the PS3 is overwhelming. Please, really, just stop. There's only so much we can take.

I think that $20 for Mirror's Edge is worth it based on the PS3 demo. It's different enough that the novelty should carry you through the supposed frustrations. Watch the Zero Punctuation video for a good rundown of the difficulties so you know what you're getting into...

Sarcasm aside, sales like this likely have to do with how many of a game were pressed. It's doubtful the PS3 garners the same number of initial pressings as the 360. Just a guess though.
