" Gotta say, this map pack looks like a huge improvement over the last one. "Looks the same to the same story to me. 3 new, 2 old = 15 bucks...but here they are trying to hype it up by pushing carnival. Kinda funny actually, everyone complained about the first map pack, but they bought it. Now they are doing it to consumers again, and once again...they'll buy it. Screw me once shame on you, screw me twice shame on me.

None of it probably. Will download trial version of Snoopy and buy it if I really like it. COD MW 2 aka the most overhyped overrated MP shooter about (my words and sorry if you disagree but I just feel this way and some people think so also has another map pack that has new and old maps but still a ripoff in my opinion. At least Epic had the courtesy of giving you old Gears maps for free if you got a new copy of Gears 2 whereas Activision get you to buy 2 and a half year old maps all over again. Just ridiculous.
" God damn it. I guess $15 is going to be the standard price now for map packs...at least until Activision decides it should be higher. I'll place my bet right now that Activision tries to sell some CoD:Black Ops maps for $20. Any takers? "We can thank all the morons who first railed against the price hike and then went ahead and bought the map pack anyway.
Then you're in luck - PoP Classic is indeed the original PoP from days of ole' just modernized to fit with today's flashy whims and fancies that you'd expect from an XBLA game.
Don't let that fool you though - it's the same ole' level design you'd remember from the original, complete with strategic sword slashing!
I might buy Prince of Persia Classic since it's gonna be on sale. It's one of my fav games of all time.

Screw me once shame on you, screw me twice shame on me.I got the first and I now know it wasn't worth it. Therefore, I Hereby Pledge, In the Presence of my Peers, I will NOT get the new map pack for mw2. Especially if Black Ops is gonna be the canine's testicles.
I do recall some years ago when I played the original PoP and was amazed by the animation. Never could figure out the fencing, though. Probably give it a shot next week though.
Also, hereby submitting a request for a Snoopy QL. That might be hot for those like me out there who like airborne combat on the arcade side of things.

Dude. I have to say. THANK YOU for pointing that out to me, like a complete fucktard I had simply assumed from the screenshots that it would be much like the other modern games in the series, having watched some gameplay vids I am now actually interested in playing it. It's a pity it isn't the actual original, I would be all over that, but this I may pick up sometime after i'm done with RDR and Doom 2. :D
No worries, man. Glad I could help out.
I'd pick it up soon before it goes back up to it's normal price, though. :). Even if you aren't going to play it for a while, you might as well pick it up while it's on the cheap.
They need to make the map packs worth a damn... like WoW the only reason i spent the MSP on that was for the zombies, even then it was still only 800MSP. they need to get real on the prices here.
