Waiter, There's Some Beyond Good & Evil In My Prince Of Persia
Hot on the heels of news both Altair and the original Prince from Sands of Time would be turning up in Prince of Persia comes these screens. Showing a suit for the ladies. Seems that when you complete the game, you get access to a Jade costume for PoP's sidekick, Elika. Jade being, of course, the heroine of Beyond Good & Evil. Always wondered what she'd look like without freaky alien lipstick all over her face! Jade from Beyond Good & Evil skin unlocked by completing Prince of Persia [Destructoid] -

Prince Of Persia: Balancing Open World With Story
Prince of Persia producer Ben Mattes, narrative designer Andrew Walsh, and level designer Michael McIntyre discuss the challenges of balancing a rich, immersive story with the open-world nature of the new game. Past PoP games have been strictly linear affairs, making it much easier to know how long the characters have been together, what they've already accomplished, etc. I think their solution is rather interesting, but of course I'll have to see it in practice.

Waiter, There's An Altair In My Prince Of Persia
Ubisoft today took the wraps off two alternate player skins you can use when playing the new Prince of Persia. One is Altair, of Assassin's Creed fame, making his second guest appearance for the year, albeit this time in a setting that's a little more appropriate. The second is the Prince from Sands of Time. To get Altair, all you need to do is register on Ubisoft's site, and you'll get him for free. For the Sands of Time Prince, you need to preorder the game from GameStop. For a secret, Kotaku-exclusive third skin, click through... More » -

First Flirtation With Prince Of Persia: The Movie
The folks at Entertainment Tonight got the "first look" at the Hollywood adaptation of Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time. There's much to see here, including the comedic flirtatious stylings of Jake Gyllenhaal, the giggling of ET's TV personalities, some shots of Jake's upper torso and so much more! Okay, not that much more. This is frustratingly light on actual Prince of Persia movie content. But if you want to spend your Friday night basking in the *insert eye color here* pools of Jake Gyllenhaal's eyes, this is the fluff piece for you. More » -

There was also an open bar, a spread of Middle Eastern-themed food, and a monster sound system. (Assassin’s Creed producer Jade Raymond led the charge onto the dance floor). More »

Japanese Prince Of Persia Art Book Is Sketchy
People preordering Prince of Persia were promised a treat. They were promised a strategy guide, an artbook and a CD. Promised, but never shown, as it's only now that we get our first look at the collector's edition pack-in. Or, the Japanese edition at any rate. Use your imagination, pretend the whole thing's in English, as odds are this is exactly what we're getting. It appears, based on the packaging, that the CD and artbook are rolled into one, so don't go expecting a large, hardcover coffee table book for your preordering troubles. Still, for what it is, it looks nice enough. More » -

Prince Of Persia, Inspired By Jordan Mechner's Kid Brother
Wish there was a word more awesome than awesome. Because this would be that. Above is the original animation reference footage for the original Price of Persia. From 1985. That's PoP creator Jordan Mechner's little brother, running around in baggy pants. Mechner took this footage, tracked his bro's movements then based the Prince's animation on them. The likeness manages to be both amazing, creepy and amazing all at the same time. More » -

This Guy Won an Oscar Playing Gandhi
That's Ben Kingsley on the set of Prince of Persia. I think he's pointing out the production assistant who didn't peel the grapes for his trailer's fruit and cheese plates like he'd asked. Or he's getting into character to fuck some shit up as Nizam, the "villanous nobleman" who is the antagonist in the PoP movie due in 2010. Sista site Defamer got that up on Friday, but tipster rayk2099 pointed it out to us just now. Sir Ben's played some heavy-gravity roles in his day. If you want to call this a paycheck role, fine, but my guess is he's working about five times as hard as he did playing Vice President Nance in Dave. More »
