New Prince of Persia Screens - Official Release

Euphoric | May 22, 2008 | Screenshots | PC Playstation 3 
The first non magazine scan screenshots of the upcoming Prince of Persia game have been released. With gorgeous graphics, although sections of some screens look more like concept art, and a classic PoP atmosphere the title is looking to be a real winner for the franchise.
Actual proper screenshots from the new Prince of Persia game that aren't scans of magazines have hit the web, revealing the new PoP game in all its cel-shaded glory.

The eight pictures suggest that the game will return to the light tones that graced the first game and jettison the awful morbid vibe of the second. Or at least Ubisoft is doing a good job of hiding such sections from official screen shot releases.

Looking at the images, we're still not one hundred percent sold on the cel-shading yet. Particularly as the character models and the backgrounds seem stylistically different. But those in the know have told us it works well in motion.

    This game is Wiiless, which means I probably won't get it unless I shell out $400 for the PS3.

    For a game that uses cell shading that looks good.

      Well in the first screen the prince looks good, but not in the last one.

    I can't even tell its cell shaded on some of those screens, the prince reminds me of Vincent Valentine
