In yet more news that will make Sony fans feel all warm and cherished, it has been revealed that EA's highly anticipated Mirror's Edge will be using the PlayStation 3 as its lead development platform. The news comes from the latest issue of OPM, which reveals that the Black Box o' Blu-Ray is development team DICE's platform of choice.
In the article, the team also talks Trophy support and reveals that Mirror's Edge is slated to have some downloadable content heading its way. The game's Trophies are planned to be ported over as Achievements for the Xbox 360 version, which smacks of a most delicious irony, and there doesn't seem to be much more info on the DLC side of things as DICE will talk about it at a later date.
At least some developers aren't intimidated by the arcane magicks inside the PS3.

Sony seems to be throwing something green and paper light at the issue of try to make it seems trophies came 1st, and the 360's achievements second. After all the fanboys will unite and make sure this blatent lie becomes absolute fact. XD
How many deals with the Devil can one company have, I thought it was capped at one? Hmm, I guess they are large enough to have a good pool of souls to trade for satanic favors. Do you get some kind of bonus for relinquishing your soul to the mighty EA for trade to Satan? A Dead Space T-Shirt? The mind wonders...
Dear God that made me smile.
This is definitely a game that I will only buy after I've seen some good gameplay vids and read some decent reviews. Right now there is nothing about it that interests me except for the beautiful graphics.
I hope it doesn´t stay as a hype machine only.
DICE built the Battlefield series for PC and they weren't exactly the smoothest, most bug free games available. I hope this is a lot more polished.
