According to
TechReport , Folks with newer Nvidia cards will get a treat if they grab
Mirror's Edge for the PC next year. Nvidia has revealed that the PC flavor of
DICE's free-running action game will support PhysX hardware acceleration. All
you'll need is a GeForce 8 or better graphics card, and you'll be the envy of
your console-using friends (you know, the ones who've already been playing the
game for a week and counting). Here's how Nvidia describes the PhysX
enhancements: "With the NVIDIA PhysX physics engine, the world of Mirror's Edge
comes to life with real affects [sic] of wind, weapons impact, and in-game
movements. Every-day objects within the game become part of the overall
experience. Cloth, flags, and banners can now impact weapons and players; ground
fog interacts with the player's footsteps; explosions fill the air with smoke
and debris; and weapon impacts are enhanced with interactive particles."
Here's a video of the PhysX goodies in action:
