Prince of Persia Classic hits the Xbox Live Arcade 9 a.m. Pacific Wednesday for 800 points.

The Xbox 360 remake will feature tweaked animation, new traps , 12 achievements and three leaderboards. The game will let you play through it in normally; in time attack mode, which has you racing to finish it in an hour; and in survivor mode which means you have to make it through the game without dying in less than an hour.

I'm embarrassed to admit how excited I am about the prospects of playing Prince of Persia again, but that doesn't stop me from wondering when Microsoft is going to get around to releasing some original content for Live Arcade. I think I'm getting a little retro-ed out over here. Brian Crecente

Ps. Man this remake looks damn sexy.
