If you ever played video games at any point in your life, you may have heard the name Prince of Persia. Created by Jordan Mechner, the game centered around the eponymous Prince of the kingdom of Persia (now Iran) as he saves a princess. A platform game, the original Prince of Persia was not an immediate commercial success, it would become a best-seller. It also got critical acclaim, and its usage of rotoscoping for the Prince's movements would be a pioneering moment in gaming, influencing other platform games like Another World and Flashback.
Originally released for the Apple II, the original game would be ported to numerous computers and gaming consoles. The game would get numerous sequels, and even a film adaptation. And now a new game is coming nest year: Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown. Let's look at the trailer!
Ooh, this looks fun already! Sargon reminds me of Strider.
Man, what did those birds do to make you that mad, Sargon!?
Yeah, having symbiotes running around would cause problems.
Nice shield, lady. Captain America would be proud. 👍
I wonder if these "Immortals" are playable. If they are, maybe each of them have unique gimmicks and strengths that affect how you play the game. That would be cool.
Well, you guys weren't prepared for the Prince getting prince-napped, makes sense you'd all drop the ball in other ways.
That is one angry manticore.
You know, Sargon. If those swords of yours can't do the job, I know a guy with a flamethrower that can.
That knight must be a Crusader.
Who is that?!
And lots of fighting and platforming.
I have to admit, the music choice is a bit...odd. Nothing against it, it's got that hard-driving feel, but I would have liked to maybe have heard something from the game's actual soundtrack.
Ooh, right on that dude's neck! That's gonna hurt!
Well, this game looks like it will be a lot of fun! I heard there was some backlash to the trailer, but I don't get why. It looks like a modern PoP game. I can't wait to add this to my Switch library! Thanks for reading this blog entry! If you liked it, show it off! Take care of yourselves and each other! Stay safe, stay healthy, stay home, wash your hands often, wear a mask, and get your vaccine/booster! See you next time!
