video review made it very clear that it will be a nice rental for me.

Omegaice · 12-01-2008, 11:22 AM

This game will be a holiday winner for sure! Just like Assassin's Creed, it will slip in quietly to be a '08 Top 10 game.

mikejet · 12-01-2008, 03:55 PM

I'll probably get rid of Gears 2 and get this for the PS3. The lag issues with GoW2 are insane.

Shin-Ra · 12-02-2008, 02:53 PM

So I guess some will start getting this today.

I'll wait a little before I buy it. You getting it today Shin-Ra?

Shin-Ra · 12-02-2008, 03:04 PM

Thurs/Friday. Not sure when I'll make a start.

Yeah, me too. LBP will keep me occupied for now.

mikejet · 12-02-2008, 03:14 PM

Probably after I get home I'll grab Gear 2 and trade it in.

Luis_A51 · 12-02-2008, 03:29 PM

How much fighting is there in this game? Is it mostly just platforming? Is the fighting difficult? Hows the story?

Im mostly asking to see if my gf might play this with me if I buy it. Story and difficulty being the 2 most important things.

From my understanding it's similar to SotC since you only do major battles and there are no smaller enemies you encounter throughout a level.

The platforming shouldn't be too hard. There are also unlockable suits for the girl and guy.

So I was wondering if anyone else tried to pick up the new Prince of Persia today only to get shafted and told it won't be out until tomorrow. Usually, the people at Gamestop just lie to me (or really don't know what they're doing) and I can find it at Best Buy by asking someone to go into the back room. Today, however, it was nowhere to be found.

It sucks when shipping dates aren't exact release dates.

u_nick · 12-03-2008, 03:21 AM

Eh, the whole teusday/wednesday thing disappointed me a while back. Now, I just expect them to come on Wednesday. And if something happens to hit on a Teusday? I just consider it a nice bonus.

richieb1971 · 12-03-2008, 11:32 AM

My order is processing. Probably will arrive on Thursday.

Blu Jacket · 12-03-2008, 05:02 PM

Apparently there are 4 costumes each for Elika and the Prince. The regular ones, the preorder ones (classic Prince and Farah), Altair and Jade, and there is one more slot on each one that says "locked". I wonder what the extra costume for each will be.

BluRay2344 · 12-03-2008, 05:11 PM

this game looks incredible!

Bageara · 12-03-2008, 05:24 PM

Yep yep.

Havok83 · 12-03-2008, 08:32 PM

Just got my LE from Gamestop. They barely got any in. I think the guy told me they had 3 and he took 2 of them, so I got the only one in the drawer. All of them were PS3 and no 360 versions came in. I was like huh? Im sure alot of people that preordered are going to be pissed off.

Im kind of disappointed with this so called LE. The packaging is some cheap cardboard box that holds the regular game case. I dont know, I guess I was expecting something like the MGS4 LE set. Interestnig that the game case doesnt have a Not for Resale tag on the back like most other sets. As far as the soundtrack goes, its not even on a CD. Its a blu-ray so I can only use it on my PS3. Hope someone is able to rip it bc I like the theme that was in the E3 trailer. Its in a small plain white cardboard insert. The content is HD, so Im glad about that. I wonder what they did with the 360 version since it has no BR.

About to play the game now. Will post thoughts later

tantheman · 12-03-2008, 09:49 PM

Looks amazing, so I have to ad to my collection.

Septimus Prime · 12-03-2008, 09:50 PM

I got the LE too. Turns out it's the same price as the regular edition, so there was no reason for me not to.
