Oh my god. I'm officially interesting.

 

[Relix]

Oh my god. I'm officially interesting.

Nah you are not

 

[Jocchan]

I'm loving the art style.

 

[HK-47]

This game so beautiful. Finally! Someone uses cel-shading again!

NMH wasnt too long ago

 

[Zilch]

I would love to work at Ubisoft Montreal. All of their projects truly push the style/art envelope.

 

[RyuHayate]

Beautiful.

Hey, if Capcom won't...

 

[Kabuki Quantum Lover]

I said wow.

 

[Ganondorf>Link]

Looks great, really surprised by the style.

 

[Amir0x]

Wow.

WOW.

Wow.

WOW.

 

[Fantastical]

Nah you are not

I've never been interested in Prince of Persia, but art styles can do crazy things to me.

NMH wasnt 'so beautiful'

 

[zoku88]

The last screen is awesome.

Read your previous post very carefully.

 

[jett]

The backgrounds have black outlines too...first time I see that in a game. The prince and the enemy look pretty good, but I think the environments need work.

I wonder if we'll ever get a game that looks closer to this:

 

[Nintaiyo]

WOW. Some of those screens look like concept art at first glance. Niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice.

 

[Fantastical]

Read your previous post very carefully.

I'm officially stupiding. I can't seem to make a post without some kind of error in it. I think I'm slowly losing my mind.

 

[GhaleonQ]

*laughs* Didn't Mechner do The Last Express, too? Compare, people. Similar styles, same palette, hard lines, and so on.

 

[wsippel]

Impressive. And quite ugly.

 

[LegendofJoe]

I loved the PoP games from last generation (SoT was one of the best games released last gen.), so suffice to say I am freakin pumped for this game.

 

[Evolved1]

I'll have to see this one in motion.

Looks nice... but I'm wondering if they changed the gameplay to match the art style.

I'm probably one of the few people who loved all the POP games. Even WW. This looks like a major departure. Maybe it'll be good...

 

[FromTheFuture]

Wow that looks great... Might contemplate getting this game if the gameplay turns out to be good.

 

[Troidal]

The art direction is impressive but why the gruff-looking prince? They just can't let go of the 'generic rage' in this game I take it ~_~

 

[Erebus]

This is in-game graphics right? Not some kind of artwork or something?

 

[Dibbz]

Wow. This is Ubi's game?? It looks so awesome.

 

[DancingJesus]

Holy Crap! Thats beautiful, love the new style. This breathes new life into an old franchise.

Desktop'd Concept Art.

 

[Atrophis]

Holy shit. Those are fucking ridiculous! The texture work and model of the enemy in the second screen :O

I haven't played PoP since Sands of Time as wasnt interested in emoprince. Lets hope his character isnt shit in this.

 

[RiskyChris]

Wow, this is one of the most gorgeous games I've seen this generation.

I don't even know what kind of series PoP is anyway =/

 

[Ryuuga]

Concept Art

Wallpaper-worthy. Thanks

 

[Zilch]

The art direction is impressive but why the gruff-looking prince? They just can't let go of the 'generic rage' in this game I take it ~_~

I don't think anything about him looks generic, though.

I'd actually go as far as to say he's a pretty good amalgamation of pretty-boy eastern style and bad-ass western action hero.

 

[Dante]

I love the way it looks, I hope the anim is equally as impresive.

 

[FightyF]

Looks gorgeous!

One thing that made Zelda:OOT so impressive was it's animations...hopefully this can boast similarly impressive animation to match these visuals.

 

[HK-47]

NMH wasnt 'so beautiful'

And this still isnt Okami or Wind Waker.

Different shading style, still beautiful

 

[bigmakstudios]

This looks amazing. And I'm so glad that it's a sort of series reboot.
edit: although I thought it was entitled "Prince of Persia: Heir Apparent".

 

[LegendofJoe]

I don't even know what kind of series PoP is anyway =/

You need to educate yourself then. Sands of Time was the best platformer of last generation in my opinion.

 

[bafflewaffle]

When I look at this game, I start hearing cheesy R&B love songs in my head.

 

[sykoex]

Amazing... Go Ubi!

 

[Evolved1]

The art direction is impressive but why the gruff-looking prince? They just can't let go of the 'generic rage' in this game I take it ~_~

That's a really annoying meme. So many games do the same thing and they aren't called on it.

I admit Godsmack on the soundtrack was kinda stupid and some of the voicework was as well... but the game was otherwise very good. And TTT was a return to a classic PoP aesthetic.

Give the team a break. Or hold other devs to the same standards.

 

[Ænima]

We don't even know anything about this Prince's personality yet, it is way too early to be making such assumptions. Would you rather he look like a metrosexual?

 

[Fuu]

Wow.

 

[flipping_heck]

Very nice

 

[Bojangles]

It's growing on me quickly... at first I was thinking:

"Saturday morning cartoon merchandising strategy sell-out"..

now I'm thinking:

I can't figure out if it's really good texturing, or if it's some sort of slick new cell-shading algorithm.

 

[Anasui Kishibe]

I'm still not digging Pince's new fashion clothes but game looks damn good

 

[jett]

*laughs* Didn't Mechner do The Last Express, too? Compare, people. Similar styles, same palette, hard lines, and so on.

I doubt Mechner is involved at all with this game, I bet he's busy with the movie.

 

[stay gold]

Wow, amazing. I LOVE that art style!

 

[Dali]

 

[WinFonda]

Love it. Rockin' that Okami art style.

 

[jett]

The art direction is impressive but why the gruff-looking prince? They just can't let go of the 'generic rage' in this game I take it ~_~

Well..it is being made by the team responsible for Warrior Within and The Two Thrones, you know.

 

[abstract alien]

Screenshots dont mean much nowadays, but if this game runs smooth, then fuck fuck fuck im buyin it.

You have my attention ubisoft, dont screw me over again like you did PoP 2, PoP 3, and AC. *Prays to the heavens this runs good*

 

[robot]

Looks amazing - guess they learned a few tricks from making the Naruto game. If it's the same team.
