I hope the new Prince of Persia is good. I've loved PoP since the early CGA days, and the Sands of Time Trilogy was my favorite. I knew it was time for Sands of Time to be put to bed and let something new in, but I wasn't overly thrilled with the direction they took PoP7. Until I played it. I never liked it as much as SoT, but I still thought it was pretty good. When they announced that PoP8 was going back to SoT, I was actually disappointed they weren't following up with a true sequel to PoP7.

I played the God of War III demo on the District 9 BD. It was all right. Too gory for me, I'm afraid. As a non-PS gamer for so long, I was afraid I was missing out on the God of War games. Turns out the clones and copycats have had me occupied just fine.

I'm playing Uncharted as I mentioned above. I like the game except for the combat. It occured to me while playing- I shouldn't have to cringe everytime the room fills with thugs, but I do... But it seems very repetitive and boring. The exploring and the story are fun though... Can't wait to see how they've fixed this in UC2.
