IGN: Pre-E3 2008 Prince of Persia Preview
xbox360.ign.com — Forget the Prince of Persia you once knew. The new Prince of Persia, built on the Assassin's Creed Anvil engine, is set in a dynamic, open world. The traps you encounter in an area in hour one will be completely different from the ones you come across in hour six. The world continually changes based on the choices you make, bringing replayability .

- modifiedbears, on 07/14/2008, -0/+5I think it blends nicely. This game looks beautiful. I'm just worried about whether or not they'll actually deliver on the player choices having a real impact in the game. If you offer me two doors and I end up at the same place regardless of which I choose, then to me that choice is meaningless.
- bakatrinh, on 07/14/2008, -0/+1It's not really realistic environment though, the texture design makes it look like it was painted
- jggube, on 07/13/2008, -1/+13I was never a fan of cell-shading, but this can get interesting - graphics-wise, it's definitely unique.
- shaynemckay, on 07/14/2008, -3/+6I have been of a fan of this series since Sands of Time, and I think this is a really cool idea. I think it's better to go the more cartoony way than try to be realistic like Assassin's Creed.
- archivist, on 07/14/2008, -1/+7they should have made the backgrounds in painted style like matte paintings. it just looks a little cheap now with cel-shaded chars and realistic backgrounds.
- MillionsLivio, on 07/14/2008, -0/+3I don't like the cell-shading from what has been shown, would have preferred they stayed with the style used in Assassin's Creed.
- zelzin, on 07/14/2008, -0/+2These cel shaded modules better look amazing in motion.
- ronaldmonster, on 07/14/2008, -0/+1My only beef so far is that the sands of time are gone. But this shaping up to be awesome.
- Ridikul, on 07/14/2008, -2/+5I don't see why they have to change everything. I want Prince of Persia, not Okami.
- fwoofles, on 07/14/2008, -1/+1Yeah because changing games is always horrible right? I wish every series just stayed exactly the same too.
- Ridikul, on 07/15/2008, -0/+1Stop putting words into my mouth.

- ortucis, on 07/14/2008, -6/+1This game is going to suck big time. After viewing the first few screenshots I was like "IT'S BEAUTIFUL!!!! EXCLAM..". After viewing their pathetic attempt at CGI, retarded female lead and ***** anime like characters in the (pre-rendered) game video.. it's going the way of Warrior Within..
Maybe it won't suck, but I don't see how this won't be anything more than Assassins Creed with Prince, cell shading and ***** anime looks.- MainFram3, on 07/14/2008, -1/+2I don't remember anything anime-like in the CG trailer. I also don't remember the lead character being a female. I also don't see how using the same engine as Assassin's Creed will make the game just like it. As a matter of fact, as a whole, I don't see what you're talking about.
- welliwonder, on 07/14/2008, -7/+2Buried for shoving anti-marijuana ad in my face.
- veskris, on 07/14/2008, -1/+4I'm guessing I didn't see that or any other ads because of this wonderful invention http://adblockplus.org/
- veskris, on 07/14/2008, -0/+1I think we all need to see this one in motion before we disregard the visual style. These guys usually make incredibly fluid animations in their games and from the sound of the article this one is no exception. I love how this is the first game I've seen where the concept art isn't too far from the actual in game graphics.
- mohsenxp, on 07/14/2008, -0/+0I'm not too sure on this one. Sands of Time was great and it seems like they are moving as far away from that formula as possible. Its risky and I hope it pays off for them.
I don't like the idea of having no upgrades at all throughout the entire game. Part of the fun is finding a new and better sword, learning a new combo etc. it's going to be weird not having any of that!
Anyone else wants to see the original PoP remade in 3D? 60 minute timer and everything!!- jeet404, on 07/15/2008, -0/+1It's already done and it freaking rocks. But its only out for the Xbox Live Arcade...well worth the 800 points. I still play it because its done so well and fluidly.
- mohsenxp, on 07/15/2008, -0/+0aw man I'm tempted to get me an xbox360 just for that game!

- Crazymaniacc, on 07/14/2008, -3/+1They ***** up this franchise when they went 3D, the first prince of persia, orange skin, white clothes on the SNES was the best PoP imo.
- ConceptualTrap, on 07/14/2008, -0/+4Sands of Time was a great game and the addition of the Farrah did a lot for the game. Unfortunately, after the success of that game, they decided to make Prince "darker" and filled the musical score with cheesy metal music thereby rendering the entire feel of the original game null and void. Oh, and the completely dispensed with Farrah as well.
I'm HIGHLY anticipating the new game but I'm skeptical until I see the tag team combat in action and the way they've decided to score the levels. The art direction looks great already though. Something new and refreshing...bring it on.

- Makasuro, on 07/14/2008, -1/+1I actually like this new look a lot.
- lonedog80, on 07/14/2008, -5/+0cell shading is for cartoons and anime... video games that cell shade are crap... like Veautiful Joe and No More Heroes... I mean, cell shading sucks SO much... :| it better be in the story line why everything is cell shaded or I'll write flaming emails and blog about it... /sarcasm
I have to agree with everyone else, it'll be interesting to see game play before making a real decision or not...- LordoftheLoo, on 07/14/2008, -0/+4Along with Killer 7 and The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker, you just named some of the greatest games ever made (note, they are all cel shaded)
- ConceptualTrap, on 07/14/2008, -0/+2cell shading is an art direction. You can hate it all you want but I for one am happy that not EVERY game looks like Metal Gear 4 or GTA. Don't you get sick of looking at the same ***** all the time? I mean, don't get me wrong, those games look great but did you ever play through the Wind Waker? There are scenes in that where the art just blows you away.
Additionally, the game isn't cel-shaded like any of the ones you listed. If you look at the concept art and the in game screenshots they appear to be almost identical. They're essentially taking some really bad ass fantasy art and making it move. How can you hate that? Do you really want just want Prince of Persia: Assassin's Creed?
- str3ama, on 07/14/2008, -1/+1What made the new prince of persia was the combination of the time control, the free flow fighting, and the plot. The level design also was quite great, and I'm still wowed at the fact that asides from an initial load the game seamlessly loads the level and you never have a wait or load screen after that. You can even go backwards and enter areas that you had previously been to without any load. With the new game, there doesn't seem like there'll be any time control element considering the Two Thrones kinda ended all that.
- ConceptualTrap, on 07/14/2008, -1/+1A question for those that played through all the 3d Prince of Persia...
I absolutely loved Sands of Time but could not get past the metal music and the fact that the Prince looked like Chris Cornell. Was the third game a return to form or did they keep the same ***** from the second one?- hyperwired, on 07/14/2008, -0/+0No, The third one (the two thrones) follows the style (music/art direction, timelessness and polish) of the first one (sand of time). So the 1st and third are similar, the 2nd one (warrior within) is different ('plays like an angry teenager'). IMO anyone willing to try prince of persia 3D, just play the 1st and 3rd one. You are probably better off skipping the second - you wont miss much in terms of story.
- Lososaurus, on 07/14/2008, -2/+1I wonder if that's the same engine the 360 Naruto games were made on.
- haikuFU, on 07/14/2008, -0/+0I think the three things that really make a PoP game good are:
- The puzzles
- The scenery!
- The Music....
The music is an interesting one. I actually liked the one with Godsmack playing. But, there's also something to be said for that middle eastern/persian style music. As long as they didn't skimp on the puzzles and scenery, this will be a great game. When I played the games, the fight scenes were just an annoyance to me, the puzzles were what was really fun.
As others have mentioned, I'm still not sure about the cell-shaded prince. Maybe they will have an option to turn that on and off. - shooooq, on 08/05/2008, -0/+0منتديات دليل مواقع منتدى قريش منتدى صور الكون شبكة اسلاميه العاب مركز تحميل تحميل صور
