So anyone played Prince of Persia yet? I know they were giving out demos if you pre-ordered (which I didn't). Any other reviews for this game? I think PoP and Medal of Honor: Rising Sun will round out my holiday game shopping to go along with SSX3.

I don't understand why they gave kill switch such a low score. I've only played the first 3 or 4 stages so far, but it's a blast. Great action game so far. The physics are good too. If you shooting blindfire, even if the cursor is right on the guy, you'll miss quite often which is realistic. 8.5/10 so for from me.

They mainly said kill switch was pretty good, but nothing great or innovative.

They're pretty tough on reviews, keep in mind that under their scheme, a 5.0 is a average game. So they rated it as above average.

Not to mention that it's just 3 gamers opinions which could differen greatly from yours obviously. :D

and then they give a 10 to Mario Kart... -rolleyes-

;)

As opposed to IGN, where apparently 8.7 is average.

Should've gotten an 11, maybe a 12.

Those reviews of Prince of Persia perked my interest too. I never really got that far in the original one, it was really hard the way it controlled and back then my gaming skills sucked. I'm a lot better now and I've heard a lot of good things about this game, anyone who has played it have some opinions on it?

Isn't FFX2 coming out in november too? I guess they didn't get it in time, thats the other game I really want to see some reviews for.

They probably didn't have time to plug away through a 40+ hour game if they just got it. And considering the hype, they'll probably give it a lot of extra focus and attention.

FFX-2 is indeed shipping early. It was supposed to be released early December, but it was bumped up. I personally can't wait for PoP: Sands of Time either. Tomorrow couldn't come any sooner! ;p

Glad I'm not the only one interested in POP. ;)

Don't forget, if you play it, let's hear about it.

First online PoP review!!

Seems like the reviewer liked it enough, but thought it was too easy. If it's anything like ICO, I am all over this one. I'm gonna wait until some of our forum members play it and give feedback.

Good, I prefer semi-easy games. I don't have the time, or the reflexes at 31yrs old to be spending forever trying to beat a boss or something... the only review I could dig up for POP last night seemed to say it was very puzzle heavy and you actually had to think. Sounds really good so far, now I'm kinda torn between what to get... MK, P:BGE, and now PoP... maybe socom 2... hmm what to do?
