Original Prince of Persia coming to XBLA

360 News | Classic 2D side-scroller due out soon.

Remember the speculation that was kicked up a month or so ago, after a catchily-named German software rating organisation had listed the original Prince of Persia as a Xbox 360 release? Well, that rumour became reality today, with Ubisoft confirming that the classic title, first released in 1989, would be coming to the Xbox Live Arcade service in "the early-summer" (or early-winter for Aussies, of course).

Prince of Persia Classic will come with new enemies, traps and puzzles and, while the visuals will be tweaked (see the Media Panel), the title will remain a 2D game. Mobile phone gaming specialist Gameloft is in charge of development.

Huh???? Why is this even a problem that I am expressing an opinion that I don't think this game looks good? And how is calling a game stupid offensive to anyone? I'm sure you all would think a lot of things I enjoy are stupid, so what? For instance I love Zelda TP, but if someone here thinks it is a stupid game, I couldn't care less. It's not like I was involved in the production of it or an related to Myamoto or whatever.....

and Ugh, I am just saying I think a game is stupid, essentially, that is what forums are for, for people who's opinions don't matter to talk crap about stuff that doesn't matter..... We aren't exactly doing anything constructive here, people say they like a game, people say they don't like a game... its just killing time whilst we are bored at work and dont have the ability to play games...... I'm just saying I think the game looks stupid. It has no more value or validity than someone else saying they think the game looks good......

Yea man I wasn't having a go....just tryna point out that there is that choice for you and now people who want a lil' bit of a souped up version have that choice now aswell. Everyone wins.
