If you’re looking for a fun scroller to play on your iOS Device this weekend and still haven’t happened to pick this one up, Mirror’s Edge for iOS is free for the day as part of EA’s Daily Deal event. While the iOS version isn’t as great as the original Mirror’s Edge, the game is smooth and has easy to use controls and at its current price, there’s no harm in picking it up. Note, the game isn’t an universal application so if you’re planning on picking it up for both iPad and iPhone, you’re going to have to download it twice. You can get the iPad version here (link) and the iPhone/iPod Touch version here (link).

While In the Cloud gaming might not be found to be a great experience by everyone, this deal might be one to look at if you’re one of those people who’ve taken a liking to OnLive’s “In the Cloud Gaming” service. While I do prefer to own my games on physical media, I found OnLive to be a good way to try out games before buying the PlayStation or XBox version of a game.
OnLive’s most recent offer involves getting a free console with a pre-order purchase of a game. Gamers who pre-order Assassin’s Creed Revelations before or by November 19th on the OnLive service will receive a coupon code for a free Microconsole system so you can enjoy OnLive on your television like any other console. Sounds like a good deal. However, my advice about this, if you’ve never used OnLive, I’d recommend you download the computer client and try out a trial of a game and see how you like it. That way, you can take a test run for free. Depending on your internet connection or how far you are from their data centers, you might experience lag and it might not be worthwhile buying games on the service. If it runs smooth for you and you like it, then this is a great deal for you.

Heads up for those of you who have happened to have never played Portal; Valve has Portal available for free for a limited time. Users can download Portal for free on Steam until September 20th. Once you install Portal before the 20th, the full game is yours and will remain that way.
What’s the reason for giving it away temporarily? Valve is doing this to help promote their “Learn with Portal” program, an educational project aimed at teaching school-aged children about science. What better way to do this than allow them to play a Science powered game. Once again; if you’ve never bought Portal, now’s a good time to grab a freebie and maybe even pick up Portal 2 while your at it. Come on, do it for Science.
Earlier in the week, Cloud Video Game Streaming Service OnLive made a little promise with its fans earlier this week. If OnLive got 45,000 Likes on their Facebook, they would sell a full PlayPass for Batman:Arkham Asylum for just $0.99 for the next 3 days. Can’t get much cheaper than that! Well, the goal was fulfilled, you can get Batman: Arkham Asylum on the OnLive service by just using the promo-code 99CENTS at Checkout. Now OnLive will be giving $1 to Child’s Play Charity for every additional like they get. Remember, this promotion expires on the 6th of September (3:00 AM EDT). Be sure to tell all your friends too!
