Apr 24, 2008

How can a mysteriously cryptic countdown site get even more cryptic? Well, it can eventually lead to a picture of Daniel Day-Lewis. Or, it can be discovered before the cryptic marketing campaign even begins. What an enigma! That's exactly the case with whatever "Prince of Persia Prodigy" is. First, the phrase was trademarked by series creator Jordan Mechner, now the domain (www.princeofpersiaprodigy.com) has been registered by Ubisoft.

Prince of Persia: Rival Swords (Review)

May 2, 2007

More than a year after the Prince of Persia trilogy wrapped with the awesome Two Thrones, the acrobatic adventure series has finally made its way to the Wii with Prince of Persia: Rival Swords. But while the title's new, don't be fooled - unlike the feature-rich PSP version, Rival Swords is just Two Thrones with fancy motion-sensitive controls. That's a little disappointing, but it's not exactly bad. Repackaged or no, Rival Swords is still a kickass adventure from start to finish, and the Wii ...

We recently sped down to Ubisoft's offices to get our hands on the single-player mode and take the Prince's acrobatic skills for a workout with the new controllers.

Prince of Persia in action with Wii controls (News)

Jan 24, 2007

Ever since we first heard about the Wii and its ambitious motion-sensitive control scheme, our minds have been swirling with visions of all the awesome things we'd be able to act out in our living rooms. And since we live in a culture with violence-saturated mainstream media (totally not our fault), some of those visions were a bit, shall we say, dark. Yes, we want to shotgun someone or something by pointing at its face and pulling the trigger. Yes, we want to beat people (read: videogame ...
