With the PC version you rotate the world in 90 degree increments. Left/right arrow toggles plus/minus 90 degrees, up arrow flips the screen 180 degrees. The Wii version lets you sort of hang in mid-air while you rotate in any degree increment you want. Hard to explain. Check out this vid to...

Looks like it was supposed to be free when you preorder Mafia II.

My reaction to the sale went something like this... "Cool, Civ3 for $1.25? I can't resist!" "Wait, I bought it in Dec '08 for $3.74? Ok, maybe Civ4 for $5 then..." "$5 from Direct2Drive in Sept '09? I don't remember that..."

Might make a good filler. Then again, you could have Scrapland for $1.15 more.

Yeah, probably sent from his BlackBerry.

Anyone know if they'll be open early for this? Usual Sunday hours?

Went with Blast Works for $7.99. Reviews seemed decent enough.
