Footage of Prince of Persia: Redemption aka the cancelled last gen Prince of Persia: Sands of Time 5

Honestly I would play that. It looks diverting.

No fan of Ubisoft but that looks cool. Reminds me of bayonetta.

So...Prince Of Persia is no longer allowed to be a colourful, light-hearted, combat/platform hybrid anymore.

Not since the last one failed (the one on PS360). They put a lot of money into it, and it was very bright/colourful. Good, too. It bombed.

What I found fascinating is that PoP trailer above is entirely pre-rendered that’s been made to look like gameplay. They did a great job on that, very convincing.

Wow, that’s impressive. I completely believed that was gameplay.

With Nolan North as the titular Prince.

It was great.

Heh, titular. Wait, are you guys talking about the one that pretty much played itself?

I haven't actually played it I just know that it was well-reviewed. Though I do know that you couldn't die? I think that was a feature.

Final Fantasy XI Reboot might still be a thing. After screens leaked in 2018, new screens have surfaced and are being actively taken down by developer Nexon:

There was one that was really colourful and kind of cel shaded and it looked great but, honestly, I found it to be barely a game. You just pressed a few buttons and the game itself would take you where it wanted while looking cool. And yeah, I don’t think you could die and there were no consequences. It was closer to watching a nice cut scene than a game for me.

The Mass Effect Trilogy is getting a remaster.

It needs to be a proper remaster - not a Paradise job. That and to make ME1 a lot more like the sequels. That's right - like the sequels.

Great news. Also would like the whole engine/movement/combat reworked. I still need to play Andromeda, but the original Trilogy is very clunky in places (completed 3 last year). Some of that is it's age, and some of that the 30hz on console. But even so it's a slow 3rd person shooter in comparison to others in the genre.
