It looks like a good game, I've played both Prince of Persia One and Two, and they looked pretty good.

Although One was very frustrating due to it being puzzle based a bit of the time, and I found myself helplessly wondering round a level with no idea what to do... Is this new one pretty much action based, or?

Well, my recommendation comes without actually playing it :oops:

Thats why I want a console. PoP 1 for me was the greatest game of all time. I got a feeling though that I will like this one just as much. The combat is apparently very similar to Soul Calibur and the platforming to that of Assasins Creed.

Oh, Cool, All I'm hoping is that It's free roam, hang on, lemme' check on Wikipedia...

Wikipedia wrote:

gameplay in Prince of Persia retains a similar feel to the Sands of Time trilogy, in the sense that the acrobatics, puzzle solving and combat elements remain. However, the game is non-linear, and hence, the players are given the opportunity to explore any part of the world at any time they want to.

Oh Yeah!

I like the prince in this game, he looks way cooler than the old prince in side to side comparison:
Old Prince

New Prince

I'll put it on my list of other games I want...

Thanks for the suggestion!

The Prince (voiced by Nolan North) from the 2008 video game Prince of Persia is a new character, different from the protagonist of the Sands of Time trilogy. Producer Ben Mattes explained that their goal was to create an accessible action hero. He elaborated, "With Prince of Persia we tried to create more nuanced, layered characters. So our inspiration was anything Harrison Ford has ever done: Indiana Jones, Han Solo. The character Dark Cloud from Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon--again, he's kind of rough and tumble, but he's got a soft heart

Oooh Yeah!

The 360 is fun though a great deal of the games are fairly mature, their are some good games for younger people though. Viva pinata is pretty good, many gamers would think it sucks, but a many have gotten addicted to it, and it is pretty moraly sound, except for maybe tones simular to this comic.

That was sad. :cry:

Yep, I have an elder brother... With most things we tend to share, now we have the XBOX we'll be able to play games like Halo 3 online with one XBOX, so... I'm rubbish at most games so if it's an adventure game, he normally does the playing and I watch...

Halo 3 will probably the best Co-op game I've played since Ratchet and Clank Gladiator(Or Deadlock in the states)
