Yeah, we haven't seen that shot before. 
Why all the hate? I thought most people enjoyed The Sands of Time. Is everyone just afraid that the combat has taken back seat to exploration...or is it like the irrational hate I have for Nanobreaker and BloodRayne? Well actually I have my reason for hating both those games, but you know what I mean.

It'll still sell more than the original PoP. And even if the cover art isn't that great (they should've should the close up of him with his swords crossed in front of him) it's still better than PoP's cheesy looking cover.

The PoP:WW hate crew shall arrive shortly and explain why this game is going to suck. Be patient.

If the platforming sucks, the game will suck. I don't give a shit about improved combat in a series that was never about combat.SaitoH said:
you people are insane. the cover art looks good, even if it's not particularly prince-y.
as for the platforming, i'm willing to give ubisoft the benefit of the doubt on this one. surely, they haven't completely forgotten what the series is about. just wait for the reviews before you start with the "wait for $10."

The original Prince of Persia was more about platform puzzles and timing, but it had some of the best one-on-one swordfighting seen at the time. The parry->strike element of the combat was very unique in games at the time.
Prince of Persia 2: Shadow and the Flame had much more combat (not necessarily for the better). It was still fun, but it just lacked the grace of the first game.
I do think the art looks good overall, but the logo is weak and the shot looks too much like Bloodrayne.
I will greatly miss the cocky, naive young prince from the sands of time.
My main complaint is the subtitle: Is the warrior within the prince? He was already a fighter at the beginning of the first game. Perhaps the title refers to something other than the prince's improvement in combat, but the name still sounds very generic and rather weak. Ravages of Time would have been perfect, as it plays a role in the game and also ties it to Sands of Time (which Ubi may not want).

You should really tell Ubi that, that would look amazing as a cover.SolidSnakex said:This should've been hte boxart (maybe it will be for the US):
personally, I don't care if PoP: WW has less platforming elemnts, the game had a fantastic fighting system and if they make more of that I will love it.
Also, Are they using the same Prince from POP: TSOT or is he different.

Now if this were Acclaims game, i'm sure they'd send a camera crew and guy dressed up as the Prince to that kids house. Have him ring the doorbell and then record the kids freaked out reaction to use for PoP2's eventual commercial.

PoP:WW hate crew reporting in for duty.
This game is going to suck. Angst and combat don't belong in a game about beautiful storytelling and platforming.

and then to top it off, they'd crash into the kid's house with a tricked out car doing 130 mph, burnout style.

This image could make a good box cover too:
Is it just me or does anyone else think that the Prince is a really cool looking character?

I really like those paintings. The prince should be in Pirates of the Caribbean 2.
Ugh, the logo is much too weak on that box.
This box uses the same art, but is much better I think: http://www.gametab.com/boxart/view/1151/
How can the official artists screw it up and users do a better job often (see: Kakusha for many examples), heh? :/

Agreed, and that's a gorgeous painting. If any of you guys at Ubi are reading this thread, please lean on the powers that be to use it as the official box art (and possibly have the art department whip up a punchier logo, if they're in a giving mood). Your customers will thank you for it.

Yuck... looks like one of every other games on the Xbox or PS2 catalogue. Nothing really makes it stand out. Blank and red seems to be the color pattern of choice for "mature" games these days.
