Re: Prince of Persia Rules both the time and your ass
 

Been playing PoP2 for a while now and it owns in every conceivable way. You must buy this game.

Re: Prince of Persia Rules both the time and your ass
 

I think i'll donate my copy of Prince of Persia to my mom (since jeepnut has finished it also) and maybe she'll buy the new game.

Re: Prince of Persia Rules both the time and your ass
 

Uh its out allready? Its not out for the Gamecube yet is it?

EDIT: Or do you mean the Sands of time, the one that was released last year?

Re: Prince of Persia Rules both the time and your ass
 

Anyone want my Prince of Persia Gamecube copy?

Re: Prince of Persia Rules both the time and your ass
 

No it's not out yet, on any system. Ships at the end of this month. I got a copy to review.

Re: Prince of Persia Rules both the time and your ass
 

I am having extreme difficulties deciding which game to ask for Christmas: Warrior Within or Metroid Prime 2: Echoes.

Ahh....such difficult decisions.

Re: Prince of Persia Rules both the time and your ass
 

Get both...but if you absolutley must pick one over the other, how could you possibly not pick Metroid Prime 2?

Its the sequal to the best game of they past 4 years, and its been getting rave reviews. That ones a no brainer.

Re: Prince of Persia Rules both the time and your ass
 

I'd probably get MP2 over PoP2, but its hard for me to really say for sure since I've only played PoP2, and it kicks ass. But MP was awesome and I can only assume the sequel will be even better.

Re: Prince of Persia Rules both the time and your ass
 

Yeah, I am DEFINATLY going to be getting both games, I was just wondering which one I should get for christmas and which one I should wait and buy at a later date. I did go ahead and tell my parents that I wanted Metroid Prime 2, however, considering how much I loved the first one. Not to mention this one has a new multiplayer mode...

It's going to be fantastic, but at the same time I can't wait for PoP2. I think the story sounds absolutely magnificent. The fact you are ALWAYS being chased by this fate creature out to make you repay your dept to death just gives me the chills thinking about it.

:)

Re: Prince of Persia Rules both the time and your ass
 

And you've never seen beauty in a game until you've seen the Garden Tower in PoP2. Oh my dear sweet Jesus...

Re: Prince of Persia Rules both the time and your ass
 

I just got this from Ubi Soft.

There is oddly no mention of a GCN version...

Re: Prince of Persia Rules both the time and your ass
 

Yeah it's weird, looks like Sony and M$ have been nice to Ubi Soft.
But we all know the GCN version is coming. :D

Re: Prince of Persia Rules both the time and your ass
 

Well when I asked Ubi Soft about it, they said they have no comment right now, so I don't know what to think...doesn't make sense not to have a GCN version.

Re: Prince of Persia Rules both the time and your ass
 

:confused: The GCN version has been in development. All the magazines and websites say it's coming.

You played the GCN version, didn't you?

Re: Prince of Persia Rules both the time and your ass
 

I got the Xbox version. And thats another thing that I forgot about, they didn't send any GCN versions for us to review. EB and Gamespot and all them still have it listed, and for the same release as the Xbox and PS2 versions, but this whole strange ordeal is confusing me.

Re: Prince of Persia Rules both the time and your ass
 

Hmm, looks like we've got another mystery on our hands here...

Well, it doesn't really affect me, considering I'm in it for the PS2 version.

Can't wait :D

Re: Prince of Persia Rules both the time and your ass
 

Utter garbage. Its coming to Gamecube...

Re: Prince of Persia Rules both the time and your ass
 

Is it coming to the PC?

The last one did. I wasn't sure about this but I just saw the PC box(sands of time) for it at my local ebgames.

Re: Prince of Persia Rules both the time and your ass
 

Yes.

Prince of Persia: Warrior Within ships December 2 for Xbox and PS2 and shortly thereafter for GameCube and PC.

Re: Prince of Persia Rules both the time and your ass
 

Well, it seems the Penny-Arcade guys (who sang the praises of the first game) aren't too fond of the new one. I played the first one and loved it but from what I've seen of the sequal, they tried too hard to make it popular and ruined it in the process.

"I smolder with generic rage." :rofl:

Re: Prince of Persia Rules both the time and your ass
 

Yeah, they kind of screwed some stuff up in this game.

Re: Prince of Persia Rules both the time and your ass
 

This is what happens when a person lets one success consume them. They can still save the Prince though. This sequel can be just written off as a dream or a Prince from another dimension in the third installment.

Re: Prince of Persia Rules both the time and your ass
 

Im still getting it for Christmas...I mean sure the reviews havent been quite as good as those for the first, but they've still been good...well into the 8.0's.

Re: Prince of Persia Rules both the time and your ass
 

It's still a really good game, sure. Just with a lot of questionable directions taken. The dark theme is really, really over done, and the prince swearing is just laughable. The emphasis on combat is also kind of weird, I mean the first game was great because of the platforming/puzzle solving, not the combat. And while the combat is considerably better this time around, I'd still rather be doing more platforming.

Plus they took out bloom lighting, bah.

Re: Prince of Persia Rules both the time and your ass
 

Ooh yeah, I've said it a year ago. :D

Anyway. :p
