Prince of Persia Classic confirmed for XBLA

[Family Fry]

Ubisoft have confirmed that Prince of Persia will be coming onto xbox live arcade with Gameloft in charge of development.
Apparently it will include tweaked traps and enhanced HD graphics of course. Check out the shots though not bad at all.....





Release date has been touted as early summer, will be nice to replay through again, I have lost count of how many versions I have played of this game.

Trailer too

[wheelaa]

Nice. I hope you can play the untarted original too though.

[AllYourBase]

That's pretty awesome. As good as the Sands of Time update was nothing can beat the original for puzzle/skill based platforming shenanigans. More of this sort of thing please!

[Geoff D]

That looks great - love PoP, so will be definitely into this

[Brats]

I love PoP. An update like this is most welcome.

Here's hoping it has the extra levels from the brilliant SNES version.

[ChrisF]

I'm sure it wont be a patch on the Sam Coupé version, but does look rather nice.

EDIT: Ooops, posted earlier.

Looks excellent - Hope they expand (slightly) the swordplay without ruining what made it great to start with !!!

Flashback next please

[wheelaa]

Flashback indeed! And Another World and Heart of the Alien. I've already got numerous versions of each (where applicable ) but they don't have achievement points.

[AllYourBase]

I reckon judging from this:

That Another World surely must be a future candidate for XBLA goodness. The two are just made for each other!

[Magnakai]

Looks like they've tweaked it quite a lot, with all the fancy wall-flips and stuff.

Pity they're using the Two Thrones Prince model. I'd have preferred ol' pyjama-boy.

Wednesday June 13th's title will be this one...

No price has been given, 800-1200 a given really.

[Dezm0nd]

Looks awesome, a nice way to update 2d prince of persia games. Definitely buying it (if demo is good)

[Spatial]

It's now been confirmed as 800 points (and still on for this week).

[Yoshimax]

Buy - Just need to get the points in.

Any kind of multiplayer angle being chucked in ?

edit : Who cares - Just watched the trailer - This is easily on for top XBLA game to date......
