With every game you have to up the ante and keep things fresh. In the case of the Prince of Persia series they haven’t been afraid to try new things, and with the next gen iteration there is going to be a new, rather crazy move.

You can run on ceilings.

In the first game all the moves had seemed to be “possible”, sure, things were exaggerated - but it always felt just about believable (especially considering all the cool parkour stuff online). As the series has moved on things have gotten more and more outrageous. In the next gen Prince of Persia the moves have been enhanced even more. This video on Eurogamer (they have no way of embedding things) shows the wonderful fluidity and speed that they have created for the characters - better even than Assassins Creed.

Strangely there is a lot of negativity in the comments on Eurogamer. Is it only me that’s excited for this game?

Update : ok, here’s a video of the ceiling running that I can nab from Game Trailers.
