I’ve already played through and completed the game and I know you said the Dahaka has no role in The Forgotten Sands but why isn’t he chasing the Prince already? Like Warrior Within said, the Prince cheated his death at the end of Sands of Time so shouldn’t the Dahaka already be hunting him down?

Or did you take into concept that power over time doesn’t equal omnipresence and the Dahaka is just elsewhere looking for him?

Just two short questions….

1. I do realize it takes a lot of work to port an old PS2 title over to HD for PS3/X360 as you basically have to redo nearly everything and up the graphics considerably but I for one would buy that disc in a heartbeat.

2. You guys (Ubisoft) did a terrific job with Forgotten Sands….it is everything I wanted out of a new POP game and you even managed to come up with new platforming mechanics! Considering this is the 9th/10th game in the total POP series this is super impressive. Thank you for coming through with a sick game!!

Sorry for the length and postage date. 2 questions – 1st is what will the prince be using to manipulate the sands of time i.e. the dagger or the medalion because at the end of POP TSOT we see the prince hand back the dagger to farah and then later on in WW we discover the prince is able to manipulate the sands of time with the medalion. But in the 1st cenematic trailer were the prince is 1st in a sand blizzard then we see him running towards a big sand cloud thing we get a slight glimpse of what looks like the dagger of time. So my question is what do we use?

2nd question – does the prince use his left or right hand for sword fights as i’ve seen pictures of the new prince with sword stored away on his left side meaning it would be used for his right hand but in TSOT the prince uses his left hand, so which hand? Thanks for replying whenever you do.

Hi Graeme!

Thanks for answering fan questions. How long is TFS compared to previous PoP titles? Can we expect more games starring the SoT Prince? Also let me have a provocative question: why is that you deny any conncetion to the SoT movie, yet it’s pretty obvious that the outfit of the Prince is identitcal to Jake Gyllenhaal’s in the movie? I think it really seems that the artistic direction was inspired by the movie, however that’s not a bad thing.

And about the SoT series: why was PoP Classic never released on PC? Can we have it at last, please!

Is there the possibility to choose the difficulty in this one ? I know there is Normal and Easy difficulty, but what about Hard ? Maybe if we beat the game once or something…

One thing I wanted to say: Ubisoft is so much concerned about its DRM, and the PC piracy, meanwhile, the Xbox360 has been pirated and most of the game is already on Youtube. Maybe you should be concerned not about the PC, because it seems more like it’s the Xbox360 version that’s being pirated, but yet you blame the PC gamers. I won’t watch the videos on Youtube, because I don’t want to spoil it more for me.

Cheers.

Another question I always had is please port POP 2: The Shadow and the Flame in the form of Prince of Persia Classic as us old school Prince of Persia fans would love to see it. Also it will be a great way to introduce it to new fans that liked PoP Classic.

PS: I really like how the PSP version looks and plays, is there any plans on releasing it on PSN for the PS3 in the future?

Hi Graeme

As you are answering questions regarding PoP Forgotten Sands. I was wondering if Ubi knew any updates concerning Prince of Persia Legacy being hosted by Ubisoft. My former hosts, Gamespy/IGN ended all of their hosting services in late September 2009. Since then I’ve talked with Ben Mattes about it and he passed the information along to Florence, the brand manager for Prince of Persia series. The last I heard was from Peter Dalope in mid October of 2009, which he told me that there was a solution and someone will contact me about it. Also Ubisoft renamed one of their forums as Prince of Persia Legacy, which was dedicated to all old Prince of Persia games. Unfortunately I never received any further details about the solution. Although they did change one of the forum sections to Prince of Persia Legacy. I would really appreciate it if you can look into this. Thanks.

One last question regarding Forgotten Sands, how many ending should we expect with the game? Is it like Warrior Within with 2 ending or like Sands of Time which had only one ending.

Sincerely,

Zain aka Zapages

if you guys don’t have a remake of the sands of time trilogy planned for the near future i’ll be more than happy to take over that task. i plan to go into game design as a career, so if by the time i’m ready to start working on a project, if the opportunity is still there, you know who to contact

oh and of course, if you do make the remake, i suggest you keep it to 360 and PS3 only, not wii, honestly, it won’t work
