The Forgotten Sands Unleashed With A New Trailer & Collectors Edition
The latest trailer for Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands has hit and thus awakened the series fan inside of me that’s laid dormant since the release of the Epilogue to 2008’s Prince of Persia last year.
As you can see there’s an obvious increase in quality over the previous titles in the Sands of Time series which leads me to one area where there seems to be something monstrous happening. That face. Seriously, I’ve seen ugly blokes before here on the streets of England but this guy scares the absolute pants out of me.
What looks awesome however is the usage of those oft-mentioned elemental powers and to be honest, as a self-confessed Prince of Persia fangirl, I can’t wait to get my hands on the collectors edition of this game. Collectors Edition? Is that what I heard you say? Well for those who were a little miffed that this series never gets the attention of it’s younger brother here’s what you get for just a little more than usual!

Rumor: Are Epic Games Getting Into Bed With Sony Japan?
