TUAW's Daily App: Mirror's Edge

Out of all of the "major" game publishers, EA has shown Apple quite a bit of love in the past, and this is probably the company's best original (in mechanics, if not actually name or premise) title for the iOS platform. It's a real shame that it took so long for this one to make it around to the handheld, but now that it's here, it is worth the $4.99 purchase price for those looking for a premium iPhone experience.
And heck, if that's too much, just be patient another eight months or so and you'll probably see the game on sale. If you're interested in this gameplay at all -- basically a complicated Canabalt, with heroine Faith running, sliding and shooting her way across rooftops -- definitely give it a look.

Usually, we like to use this space to highlight developers and apps that could use a little more exposure, not call out big-budget titles...

Please take this as constructive criticism only as I think Tuaw bloggers do a GREAT job:
Why is the app of the day always a game? With 250K apps you'd think there'd by reviews of all the other categories. I haven't read a single app of the day article in weeks. Or is it months now? I bought a bunch of games when the app store first appeared [$100+] but soon figured out that, like console games, I don't have time for them either.
No offense. I'm sure that there are tons of gamers on Tuaw â just my .02
