Post by: idolminds on Monday, May 14, 2007, 03:02:12 PM
Oh. My. God. (http://www.gaming-age.com/cgi-bin/previews/preview.pl?sys=xbox360&game=pop_classic)

Remake of PoP1 with Sands of Time visuals. Holy crap this is awesome. I am almost in tears that I can't figure out a way to get it for myself. PLEASE GOD LET THERE BE A PC VERSION!

*EDIT*

Image links wont work, just go check it out. Its the best thing ever.

hahaha that's sweet! That also looks exactly like the mobile version of the new PoPs anyway. ;)

Holy crap!  I loved the SNES PoP, which was like an enhanced version of the original.  This looks really good.

Hell yes, that looks cool.  Too bad I don't have a 360, perhaps I can play it at a friend's place since I know he'll probably get it.

No HDD on my 360, so none for me, I guess.  But yeah, that looks awesome!

This is definitely wonderful news.  I played the original and loved it.

Well if my XBox Live purchase wasn't worth it enough, this pretty much goes beyond doing it justice.

Got it!  And it looks like a winner (http://www.gamespot.com/xbox360/adventure/princeofpersiaclassic/news.html?page=1&sid=6171604).  Controls very nicely with the analog stick.  It's classic PoP with updated graphics.  3D-ness.  Yay!

Yeah, got it this afternoon.  It's challenging, but not frustrating.  I'm looking forward to actually getting good at this.  I'm starting to get the sword-fight timing down.

It's 800 points from what I hear.  I think I may try the demo if there is one, but probably not actually get the full version.

The demo is the intro level.  It's good for getting the feel of what you'd be getting, but it's over very quickly.
