I still wish they would release a sequel to the 2008 game.

Ime not sure but i thought there was going to be one, and the rumour i heard was that one of the ac revelations devs was going to be involved,but again ime not sure.For me though sands is my fav game of all time,that was for me,all the years of gaming had finally arrived.The 2008 effort just goes to show that power is not everything,I really liked the second one,but it was all downhill from there,i think they should leave the prince in the past and concentrate on new ip

Prince of Persia: Sands of Time is one of the all-time classic adventure games. The other two last-gen PoP games were pale imitations. 2008's cel-shaded Prince of Persia was pretty good, except for the almost insulting inability to die. Forgotten Sands was aptly named, because I can't remember a thing about it, other than swinging on frozen water spouts.

I still wish they would bring out Worrier Within and Two Thrones out on 360. Sands of Time is the only last-gen PoP that works on 360, and playing PoP on PSP is a VERY VERY bad idea, I almost rage destroyed my PSP because of the frustrating controls. For a while on the Game website the HD trilogy was available for pre-order for 360, but then they took it down. Does anyone know about it being released? As it is the 10th anniversary this year my fingers are crossed.

The 2008 Prince of Persia gets a bum deal. It was great adventure game, good story and looked fantastic. The whole not dying complaint is harsh. Bioshock had Vita chambers that removed the fear of dying and no one seems to have complained about them. Except me actually. But I'm yet to play a game that actually ends when you die. All the 2008 PoP did was remove a reload checkpoint screen and kept the action flowing. It wasn't a great decision by the designers but it wasn't awful or game breaking. And the ending in my opinion is superb. I know some people felt the opposite though. Would love to see a sequel to it.

I missed out on Sands of Time when It came out and really regret it. I remember it getting rave reviews but I just ignored it.

Was it Ubi Singapore that made the Lairs in Brotherhood? Because they looked stunning, more so than most of the rest of the game, and from the first time I played they just felt like a studio desperate to make a PoP game. I'm hoping that their abscence from AC3 hints at them making something bigger.
