It appears as if the Prince of Persia HD trilogy Collection won't see a physical release in North America, but that doesn't mean North Americans won't be able to get their hands on the HD re-mastered titles at all. Ubisoft has revealed that three games in the packaged will be released separately on PSN in North America. Keep those wallets handy, eh?

The collection was first spotted as a European-exclusive set that combined Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time, Prince of Persia: The Two Thrones, and Prince of Persia: The Warrior Within on a single Blu-ray. Like the God of War Collection before it, and even more similar to the Sly Collection, the Prince of Persia Collection features 720p HD visuals and 3D support.

damn, word son

maybe? 
 
Shit that was my first try and all.

hah, nice

KINDA awesome? I dunno. I FEEL LIKE the first is the ONLY ONE I really want. Never played THE SECOND but the constant OMFGISNTTHISHARDCORE Godsmack soaked bullshit WARRIOR Within kept pulling REALLY TURNED me off.

Meh

ah so close!!!

Sands of Time is already on PSN.  Came out today.  $15 USD.  So yeah.

I've played the first POP a ton of times, the second and third twice. I might want to revisit the second at some point but otherwise I think I'll be fine without this. 
 
Good for people that've been missing out though.

Weak sauce

FUCK YEAH!!!

EAT IT 360 OWNERS!
 
Oh wait, I own a 360. 
 
Luckily, I also own a PS3.
 
Also luckily, I already own all of these on the PC and making them HD is just a matter of a resolution change.

Nice, probably will pick up the second one, never played it.

There's an awful lot of collections coming out on the PS3 it seems. Sounds cool though, never got around to playing Sands of Time (or any of the triology for that matter).

 Getting sick of exclusives. At this point everything like this should be cross platform considering the games were on the Xbox to begin with. Or since Splinter Cell is Xbox exclusive that is the reasoning behind this. I might go with the latter.    

Sands of Time was the only one worth playing and that was back in 2003.

They were all worth playing. "

Sands of Time is on the PSN today for $15.... 
 
...the rest of the collection is pure shit.

Meh. Rather than buy them on PSN, I'd prefer to just import the European version. I may just do that.

Damn. these better be cheap. I'd rather it be on a disk because prices eventually drop.

I like that they're putting them on one at a time, especially since I only really want Sands of Time... as it was the only really good game in the series.  Simply put it didn't do any of that "WE'RE EXTREME BLOOD AND GODSMACK AND CRAP!" stuff.

i'm all for more dudes pushing for digital releases, this sounds cool

Damnit, I want a physical copy to hold in my arms and whisper sweet nothings to. Guess I'll have to hold out and hope or import.
 
And what's with all the hate for Warrior Within? Yeah the Godsmack shit is pretty corny but damn if the choices in combat aren't fun to make. Am I gonna hop over this guy or steal his weapon? How about BOOOOOTTTTTTHHHH!!!!!

Fucking fuck.... I want physical...

1 word: import

Sony is getting a lot of PS2 era franchises locked down with exclusives. I... sorta... like? 
 
None of them really interest me. I'm sure they make other Sony fans happy.

Kingdom Hearts Collection, please.

" Kingdom Hearts Collection, please. "

I want a Ratchet and Clank and a Jack and Daxter collection. I never got around to playing those games in the PS2 days and would love to get a box set ala the sly copper one.

I guess I'm importing this game then.  
 
Anyone know any good places where I can import games from Europe?

" I'm kind of weirded out that pretty much all the games I'm looking forward to on the PS3 are HD collections of last-gen games.  Shadow of the Colossus, God of War, Oddworld Stranger's Wrath and now Prince of Persia.   I'm thrilled about these re-releases, but remastering games just seems like a strange thing to hang their hat on. "

Sonuvabitch. I don't have a PS3.

if they need a blu ray disc to hold all 3 games, they could release each of them online... my 360 has more storage space than my ps3 ! 
 
And concerning the european bluray, my guess is that it will be region free, so you could buy it online

I Already own all 3 on the PC and the PS2. I might pick these up for the trophies. Just maybe.

" Kingdom Hearts Collection, please. "

This makes me nervous. I like boxes, and would prefer a Blu-ray collection myself, but if it's never going to come to disc, then I'll buy the PSN title. However, what if it DOES come to a disc in 6 months. All three of them. That'd be a bummer. 
 
Why on Earth would they do this? Just release the box every where, you dopes.

Been close to getting these on steam more than I'd care to mention. Glad I waited.

Cool, probably gonna pick up The Sands of Time sometime this long winter.

Hey I really liked the 3rd game Two Thrones.  I can understand why people shit on Warrior Within but please explain to me why Two Thrones is considered crap.

i only want to replay the sands of time(specially on HD with trophies), the other two are not necessary, so i'm ok with this

I'll probably be getting the disc. Keep forgetting it's coming out this Friday. 
 
I wonder how many of the people saying Sands of Time was the only good one actually played the other two. Both had their faults but they're both vastly superior to the 2008 game and there haven't been many "cinematic platformers" (as Wikipedia calls it) to that standard since.

Either the "HD" versions of this look like shit or i just remember the games looking better, either way no disc = no sale and i don't care for importing. 
 
I am not a fan of digital download, especially when it should be on disc and can be released on disc.. lazy fucks

Digital distribution only, also known as The Future! 
 
Eh, kinda wish NA was getting a disc, but I'm really only interested in played Sands of Time so this kind of works for me.

Well that just about kills my interest in this. Not that I was terribly interested in playing games from the last generation anyway. It's not exactly nostalgic till at least two gens back.

God Lord does this game look ugly.
