So, are those sprites or 3D models? Looks like sprites, right?

The lighting makes me think full 3D models.

The angles of the environ shows they're 3D too.

[edit : although it could be prerendered 3d backgrounds, single screen gameplay like the classic too, that would bloat up the XBLA download size.]

Looks gorgeous. Reminds me of Prince of Persia 2.

I just think the 'new' design of the prince looks out of place...

Of course, we implemented a scoring system to allow players to compare their skills on Xbox Live leaderboards. We also added a ghost feature, allowing you to race against the ghost of your best performance or try to match another player's skill and speed.
:D

Wow... Initially I thought they had just ported PoP1 to the Xbox, but once I entered the thread my mind was blown.

Do want... right now =(
 
I actually preferred the old PoP 1 and 2 art style :S

Holy hell. I was expecting fugly "enhanced" 2xsai images of the Amiga version or something.

It was a nice surprise to scroll down and see that.

This is not PoP1 artstyle (or maybe it was? never played more than 5 minutes - always died earlier :p)

No, thats the second one. The first one is like this:

PoP1 was also made with the improved artstyle. This is how it looked when I played it on Mac and the unlockable one in Sands of Time looked like this also:
