Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands announced for May 2010 launch

Crap. I enjoyed the reinvention of the series.

It will be at the Vgas

Get rid of the japanese anime inspired prince then I’ll be interested.

Loved the last game, but can’t they come up with something without involving “sand” in the title? lol

In my mind, almost instantly pigeon holes it to the last Sands title which isn’t fair to the new title..

Nice to know Ubi are committed to finishing what they start. Presumably they’ll reboot Assassin’s Creed before they finish that story too?

They better not go back to the Goth chic of the second and third games of the series.
I want to find out what happens to the Prince and his lady friend from the reboot series.

Yeah, hopefully this game will recall the Sands of Time and bring back that storyline and extend it. That would be great. I think the art-style of the past game was great. All the game needed was more combat and the great voiceover from the Sands of Time. Then you have a great PoP game.

There will be a VGA trailer for the game

This is going to be something special for me to buy it, considering its coming out when a load of other games are coming out as well. The first half of next year is getting ridiculous now

Good news for PoP fans, bad news for BG&E fans i’d wager though.

Not really Hunam if Ubisoft make a shit load of money of this game they may be willing to take a risk with another BG&E game. I fucking hope so anyway dam Ubisoft.

But they showed that little trailer like 2 years ago and we’ve heard nothing

I WANTS BG&E NOW KTHANXBAI.

I know dude sucks doesnt it. Some proof of concept footage got leaked before E3 so at least they are playing around with ideas. You just got to hope lol

That trailer was ‘leaked’ though. And even then never confirmed as real.

I thought that little vignette of them sitting on the car in the desert was shown by Ubi and Ubi days?

I could be wrong though.

Just checked the trailer was shown at ubidays in may 2008.

I bet they’ve bloody cancelled it though.

Pat, go ask them about BG&E2… I’ll give you a kiss.

Yea Pat please do ill give you a big hug

Geki

It was confirmed as by a Ubisoft marketing guy, he just said they were playing around with ideas and the game may or may not happen

Do you know what they are playing about with!?

OUR HEARTS GOD DAMN IT.

I know god dam it. I mean Ubisoft have possibly the greatest female character of all time in a videogame with Jade yet they waste the potential grr

Whats funny is that when you said Jade the first thing I though of was Jade Raymond, I miss her too.

Updated.

Hey Hunam according to BG&E’s wiki page they say development is ongoing and have a link to back it up as well. Its a french website that the link takes you too

They’re doing BG&E2 at Ubi Marseilles. I’ve got no idea what its status is, though.

All I know is that the game isn’t in my Xbox/PS3/PC and that I am liable to burst into tears if the game in cancelled.

Burst in to tears of rage that is and then burn them to death.

Surely this is just going to be a movie tie-in, and they haven’t actually abandoned the new storyline right?

These POP games are coming out of no where. We hear months of news about Assassins Creed stuff before the game even releases. When POP is being talked about its like the game is coming out in a couple of weeks

Surprising! Although with the movie being tied to the Sands of Time series perhaps not so far out of the left-field.

I wonder if they’ll keep the graphical styling of the later game, though? They’d better not make the characters look like the actors from the film. Because that would be shit.
