I bought it last week for the Xbox.And let me be the first to say that this game is going to be in the running for action/adventure Game Of The Year.I mean the Xbox demo that most of us played a month ago doesnt give the real game justice.

The graphics are top notch,the gameplay is awesome,and most of all the challenge is indeed there with POP.The Prince controls like a dream.Running up walls,jumping from piller to piller,gymnastic moves,sword fighting,blocking;etc.This guy has the moves.

The guys that helped develop Splinter Cell for UBI-SOFT has done it again.Its like Aladdin meets the Matrix.(Because you can actually speed up time,slow it down, or rewind it during gameplay) If you guys want a challenge as well as a great action/adventure title look no further than Prince Of Persia for the Xbox.

It has alot of extras too.The only gripe I have about the game is at times the camer angles can scare the #### out of you when your trying to find a good angle to see before you leap.Other than that its a great game.Right now for my picks for Action/adventure GOTY are:

1.Prince Of Persia-Xbox,PS2,GC

2.Castlevania-PS2

3.The Wind Waker-GC

If Ninja Gaiden makes it out this year then I would have to move The Wind Waker down a notch.

Do I consider this a must buy? HELL YEAH!

One ofthe coolest games I've played in a long time. I expect to revisit a lot of levels once I've completed the game.

This is the game I returned True Crime for. I think it was a good move.

PoP is definitely one well-polished game. The only thing that has frustrated me in this game is when fighting. My moves are pretty limited, but I'm still early in the game, so I hope more are unlocked. I think the level designs are great. Running along the walls are implemented better than any other wall running game.

If Ninja Gaiden does come out this year (it better, I just reserved it), and it ends up being a good game, I would have to move both Castlevania & Windwaker down a notch.
