 Prince of Persia: Prodigy is the latest game in the series and is currently in development for both the PS3 and Xbox 360. The game features a new Prince of Persia, a thief who stumbles into a forbidden land - a mythical garden of beauty, dominated at its center by a massive tree of life. He encounters Elika, a descendant of the guardians who protect the tree.

The first screenshots of the game are now available, so you can see both the Prince and Elika in action. The game uses the same engine as Assassin's Creed, has a cel shaded graphical style, and is set for release towards the end of the year.

The combat is different this time round too. Nearly every battle will be a boss battle type of deal, with the prince going up against a big monster, rather than just a series of little skirmishes all throughout, which I think is great. I don't know if I like the generic "magical girl" side kick though. And the story doesn't seem like it will be as beautiful as Sands of Time, but I'll have to wait and see. Hopefully it's delivery will be as magical as Sands was.

Got an Arabian Nights flavour. PoP was more fun way way back in the day, I think. The newer ones haven't done much for me.
