Trailers: Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands

I haven’t really been reporting on this game because I always assumed it was going to be some crappy movie-game cash-in marketed towards females who enjoy some shirtless Jake Gyllenhaal in their morning vista, but I stand corrected. While the latest PoP game doesn’t appear to be doing anything really new, it does look like a pretty darn fun game. I mean, if they’re using the tech behind Assassin’s Creed and switching “stabbing dudes in the face” with “puzzle-platforming,” then it should probably be like the Assassin’s Tombs in ACII, right? One can hope. Still, I really thought the 2008 Prince of Persia reboot did some very innovative things and would have liked to have seen those ideas expanded on. What was up with 2008 and innovative games not selling well?
