i was thinking the same thing. i guess thats why he used the sands. he just thought, "well, that was the worst idea ive ever had."

The Prince looks different. Again. I guess I'm just into details, but I cannot wait regardless. Loved the Sands of Time trilogy.

Ugh, I want more of the last PoP not a remake of the old stuff. 
 
Oh well, hopefully its better than Warrior Within and Two Thrones.

This is to go along with the movie. It's a half movie game but made by ubisoft. I can't see it being as good as POP and probaly around the movie as the prince looks like Jake Gylenhall. I will still buy it if it's to do with the sand trilogy as the new one was shit IMO.

THE GAME IS NOT A MOVIE TIE-IN!  Michael McIntyre CONFIRMED IT!
It will show what happened between Sands of Time and Warrior Within. It will be awesome! I love Warrior Within and I love the fact that the prince is wearing the WW outfit.

I was beginning to think he was going to say something like: The sands remain. But not now -- GLOBAL WARMING HAS STRUCK. The desert has become bountiful and treeful.

Oh wait, how did I not realize this? Obviously, this game takes places between The Sands of Time and Warrior Within. I would be fine with that. I just don't want them to touch the ending to the trilogy.

This trailer upsets me because sands of time is one of my favourite games. That character model has a messed up face too.

I like the fact that they aren't trying to make it hand in hand with the movie. While it's obvious some style changes occured to match it it isn't blatant like  "Prince of Persia: The Movie: The Game" or anything like that. I still wish they'd continue the new story arc they began with the most recent Prince of Persia and the DS game that followed it. Sands of Time was complete in my mind already.

What can I say, people like to run on walls in beautiful environments. It's as classic as shooting guys in the face.

I like the departure from the Sands of Time storyline that they went in with the most recent game.  I'm not too interested in this.  It seems to be just for the movie without actually being a direct movie licensed game.  The ol' game based on a movie based on a game dealio, like Street Fighter: The Movie - The Game.

I haven't played a Prince of Persia game since the 3rd game in the series came out, guess its time to do some catching up.

Yeah, I dont think they would've released the epilogue DLC that TOTALLY sets up the sequel unless a sequel was absolutely certain. I love the Sands of Time games, but I really wanted a sequel to the 2008 Prince of Persia sooner.

Didn't look too great, never played the Sands of Times trilogy, but from the look of this trailer I'll set my expectations to low.

Wow. They. Forgot. A lot. Of sand.
 
On another note: Okay Ubisoft it was funny in the beginning now please just reboot the franchise for the 3rd time. Please? We'll have a clean slate, the prince can be all emo like you want as long as it's not this franchise.  No?! Well fine then see if care. *walks off in a huff*
 
 
 
*comes running back* Please! Just remake Sands of Time for next-gen consoles that's all I want.

Wow, this looks terrible. Absolutely terrible. The CGI looks cartoony, the VO was boring as shit (although the first 2008 POP trailer had a terrible VO also), and the trailer shows nothing new. 
 
This looks like an awful step back. And I hope I'm wrong, because POP: SOT was amazing, and the new one was awesome IMO. 
 
God this put a bad taste in my mouth.

I loved the Sands of Time trilogy, but that storyline is complete.  Really, The Two Thrones wrapped up that narrative so well that anything more can be nothing but a cash-in for the movie. 
 
A continuation of the 2008 Prince of Persia is far more interesting to me, since that storyline went in a very surprising direction at the end of the game.  Some people thought of it as a let-down, but I thought Ubisoft showed some real guts going that way.

Exactly. I really liked most of PoP2008. 
Also, it seems standards have declined even further when it comes to what passes as Persian.

seems like this game is tying in with the movies' design aesthetic, as evident with the princes new look and the block lettering in the subtitle. i hope disney doesn't force ubisoft to tone down some of the action or darker themes in the game.

The teaser trailer doesn't do much to excite me. But so far I've enjoyed all the PoP games that Ubisoft put out, so I'm willing to give them the benefit of the doubt.

So where's the prince? All i see is Manly McStereotype, son of Kratos and Brad Pitt, running on walls.
