I wish I'd never bought it now.
I payed 40 pound for it, had fun with it for a few hours and haven't played it since really.
I love the graphics, but Jesus it's a boring game.
Now it's gone down to £20 in some places, too.

Well don't feel too bad. I bought CoD:WaW for 60$ barely touched it and it's down to 40 already. Just about everything I bought for $60 in the past few months is already down to $40 like Midnight Club:LA.

PoP was just too short with little replay value. I rented it and loved it, but I was glad I didn't buy the game. I would still pick it up for cheap down the road just to add it to the collection. But I wouldn't pay more than 20-30$ for it.

I am glad I played the beta for CoD:WaW I thought the game was horrible.

Too short? Boring how? I haven't played it yet but didn't really plan on buying it. Just curious about what else you thought of it.

It's just the same thing over and over. When you're performing all of these amazing acrobatics it feels like you just have to time the button-press, like you have barely any control over it.

Well I sure don't regret renting it that's for sure. It was a good experience, even though I agree the game got boring by it's reptitiveness, and I hated collected those seeds. There are better Prince Of Persia's out there imo, like the Sands Of Time and Warrior Within, those 2 had more action than this next gen version.

an incredible experience....but ya, with no difficulty options or incentive to replay it, its difficult to say the $60 was well spent.

i sort of regret it

I find that I am enjoying the ride. Very much wish I had rented it however. I, personally, feel more regrety buying Gears of War 2. With PoP I feel I purchased a fairly shallow, much too user friendly, yet pretty looking game. Gears of War 2 has just left a bitter and bad taste in my mouth.

But like I said, I am enjoying the ride in PoP, but kind of look forward to beating it so I can trade it in.

i've never liked the whole prince of persia scene. I think it's maybe down to the many boring hours spent playing Tomb Raider at my cousins house on his PS1. However, i love assassin's creed which is awesome. I think the new graphics makes Prince of persia more appealing and nice to look at, but after playing it briefly, its like Mirror's Edge... awesome to look at and play for short bursts in an arcadey sort of way, but playing for extended periods of time just leaves you never wanting to see the damn game again.

I'm getting it for Christmas, so it's not money I spent but I think the game looks pretty awesome. Why are games prices dropping so quickly now? I noticed POP's only 40 bucks now.

For me sands of time had one of my favorite stories from a video game. It was 50 bucks when I first got for PS2 and it was worth it.

This one dosen't seem that great. Saw my brother playing it and it look so lame cause you couldn't die.

Nope, PoP is my favorite game of '08. I do regret buying Mercs 2 and Far Cry 2, though. Yuck!

they are just sales for this week.

I dont regret buying it. Its fun and different from my other 360 games so it was a breath of fresh air. Plus I bought it with a $100 gift card I found at the bus stop :P
