Those screens really don't do justice to just how big the differences are when at 1080p on a full size screen. The AA is painfully poor on the PS3, in fact I would say it was a 'major' issue as it is so different on the 360. Just for example when you start the story mode and you have the huge text "a DICE game" etc it looks like someones just hacked away with it with a saw, where as on the 360 it looks smooth and as it should.

I tried to take some pics but my camera doesn't capture it properly

Oh I'm so getting this game, it's amazing (Y)

Me too (Y) I need to play through the demo a few more times so I stop spacking out when I come across the bunch of cops you can fight, I keep ending up hitting the face buttons and end up just facing the other away etc haha. I'm just annoyed the demo isn't longer :D

You know, there never has been a source which says it was lead development on PS3. I think that all started because we saw the first ingame footage from some Sony event last year and because it will get exclusive DLC. I've yet to actually read a source which says its PS3 leading though.

So that's probably why it does have AA issues as it's actually being developed alongside the 360/pc.

Recently, Sony has talked about developers using the PlayStation 3 as their native development platform if their aim is to get quality games, whether they will eventually develop it for the PS3 or the Xbox 360.

In connection with this, EA DICE has just detailed that they are currently using the PS3 as the lead platform in the development of Mirror's Edge (PS3, Xbox 360, PC).

This was detailed in the September issue of the Official PlayStation Magazine (OPM). Therefore, PS3 fans should be delighted to experience a high-quality game knowing that it was developed with the PS3 in mind.

To those of you who haven't seen Mirror's Edge yet, this game is an action-FPS that incorporates acrobatics as a gameplay element. Look out for its release later this year on the PS3, Xbox 360, and PC.

If i'm honest, it does seem as if people use the PS3 as a lead platform just to be able to get decent performance out of the game. I mean look how much better it looks on the 360. How many games have come out for the 360, then out on the PS3 later but been delayed or the devs just shooting for 'comparable' performance and graphics. If you have both consoles I see no reason you'd get the PS3 version unless it turns out better than the demo.

hmm looks pretty nice.. Seeing it side by side on the PS3 and 360 I see no differences to make you want to buy 1 over the other. God I should have got a xbox over a Wii... stupid kids :)

Any word on the PC demo? Would like to try it out there.

      Honestly... 4 wasn't fun, 5 had unlikeable, annoying, or dull characters... Yeah, to me the magic died with San Andreas.

      Flameshot 14.0 Final by Razvan Serea Flameshot is a free and open-source, cross-platform tool to take screenshots with many built-in features to save you time. Using Flameshot is as simple as launching, dragging the selection box to cover the area you want to capture, making annotations as needed in on-screen and saving the shot to your computer, all with a very simple and straightforward interface. Flameshot allows users to simply upload their screenshots directly to the cloud in order to easily share it with others. You can upload your image directly to Imgur with a single click and share the URL with others. In-app screenshot editing - You can choose to add an arrow mark, highlight text, blur a section (blur or pixelate an area), add a text, draw something, add a rectangular/circular shaped border, add an incrementing counter number, and add a solid color box with Flameshot's built-in editing tools. Command-line interface (CLI) - Flameshot has several commands you can use in the terminal without launching the GUI via a command line interface. The command line interface lets you script Flameshot and use it as the subject of key binds.
