I was actually planning on getting this game today, but after thinking about it I decided not to. From the looks of it it's just anotha version of Prince of Persia, so I'm sure it's badass, but I haven't played the first one.

And I really hate playing a game that has a previous version.
Like some people have said; if you haven't played the first one you will be lost. So just for the fuck of it I might get the first one first. (please lmk if it's worth it though, don't want to waste my $$$ cash money on some lame video game)
