Mirrors Edge by Electronic Arts was released for pc on January 13th 2009 and is the first game with fully integrated PhysX designed to run on Nvidia GPU's. Some time back Nvidia purchased Ageia which invented PhysX and a Physics Processing Unit that can perform PhysX processing much faster than a CPU. With the acquisition of Ageia Nvidia push the technoligy to the forefront of graphics processing. Previously PhysX was a phenomenon and you purchased a separate PhysX card which just kind of hung around in your machine and didn't do much for you. Ageia just didn't have the Corporate resources to mainstream PhysX even though it's a great idea for effects in games that provide a more realistic user intractable environment.

The test system is a monster and no wide range of Ati cards (just 4870) , this is more a tease and advertise nvidia's cards (especially 295) than real review.

Performance review is hardly needed for this game. When you can run it maxed out with 16xAA or 8AA and still get over 60fps on a plethora of video cards there's little need to guess how it'll run on the average gamers comp.
