@zåɳzißårléɠёпȡ: Unfortunately I only own it on the Xbox 360. Sorry! I agree, the game never gets tiring at all. I still find new spots, which blows me away. There was something sleek and realistic looking with the graphics on Skate 1, and Skate 2 seemed to drop that a bit for more of a gritty / unpolished look.
Here's my part from the newest DP video, "I Hate DP": #skate

The world just seemed a little to realistic, in the sense that over-the-top jumps were practicly impossible. It's why i refrained from buying the sequel, and i'll scout the terrain before buying this.
If anything has any positive info on the game world of part 3, feel free to enlighten me #skate

Everybody gets tunnel vision on their own trick instead of ad hoc co-op seshing a spot. #skate

Kinda the same way the Skate 1 trailers and dailyvideos had camera angles you couldn't use ingame.
the same camera-kit that was later sold as DLC for Skate 2.
oh fuck. EMOTE DLC. /sigh. #skate

First off:
1) the hell is with the british accent and non-persian look?
2) where is his big nasty sword and poofy white pants?
3) what the fuck is with that leather vest he has on in the begging of the trailer? Who wears that in a desert? "I'm sweating balls here in this leather, my shoulders and arms are sun burned and cancerous, but man I am so BADASS." #princeofpersia

the british accent and non-persian look are due to it being a movie as well. they probably couldn't find a decent actor who also happened to be persian. it happens all the time. get over it.
and your two whines about the character design? those are ALWAYS changed in movies. it's about looking cool, not making sense. it's a damn movie. get over it, ffs. #princeofpersia

If it's supposed to be a movie adaptation then shouldn't the movie characters atleast somewhat resemble the game characters? I just thought the prince in the movie lacked authenticity or something....maybe saying he detracted from the atmosphere and theme of the movie is more accurate? Either way, being a movie based off video game, I think some part of the game should follow over into the movie besides the running, jumping and sandstorms. Atmosphere, themes and character development are all huge parts of what makes a game great or unique, the "it's a movie get over it" arguement is what prevents movie adaptations from being as great as their book or video game predecessors. Why should I trade logic/common sense for visual appeal or "coolness"? If I'm watching a movie, I'd much rather be immersed in the story/plot/dialogue and have everyone wearing plastic bedsheets, than spend the entire movie being unimpressed with "badass" visuals and an unengaging fictional universe. #princeofpersia

character development is something you can't just based solely on what little we've seen in the trailer.
and how in god's name is the character design worse at all? it's damn near a carbon copy of the Warrior Within armor, ffs. [image.com.com]
"it's a movie" is only a bad argument when you're talking about big issues. what you're talking about is nit-picky little crap that makes no difference. #princeofpersia

Also, I hope Ubisoft's "big announcement" is merely another PoP title and not a Street Fighter-esque "The Game based on the movie based on the game" fiasco.
As for the trailer, it's everything I was expecting from the Bruckheimer/Disney duo. Sure people will find things to bitch about (they always find things to bitch about), but it looks like the solid, summer blockbuster I was expecting it to be. I'm sure it won't win any Emmys, but it'll be more than watchable/enjoyable. #princeofpersia

I absolutely loathed the last POP game.... Even though I'm a POP fan. #princeofpersia

The last Prince of Persia stirred up sadness, fear, anger, and regret. No video game has ever made me laugh or cry as much as that game did. Sorry you're so pissed that you can't rewind time to see what an amazing game it was. #princeofpersia

I mean, look at Silent Hill. Sure, the ending was stupid, they destroyed some characters, but at least it stuck true to the game.
But I still still hate video games becomign movies. #princeofpersia

That's what I think anyway...I really can't see Ubi making a top tier PoP sequel to last years gem AND another PoP for the movie in the same year unless its a LIVE Arcade release.....or PSN. #princeofpersia
