Sands of Time in HD

[Sinful Orchid]

Looks like the Sands of Time series will be getting an upgrade in HD like Beyond Good & Evil: www.escapistmagazine.com/news/view/104065-Ubisoft-Announces-HD-3D-Prince-of-Persia-Compilation-for-PS3

"The three games - Sands of Time, Warrior Within, and Two Thrones - will be given the full HD upgrade. The trilogy will ship on a single Blu-Ray disc containing 30 hours of play time (or 10 hours per game, for us mathemagicians), and will be remastered in 720p with new textures and anti-aliasing. It will even support stereoscopic 3D, to help you judge jumps more accurately (or to just make you even more motion-sick).

Now, here's the weird news: As far as we can tell, this compilation is not only a PS3 exclusive, it's also a European exclusive. So while our friends in the UK can pick the compilation up for £29.99 (or its equivalent in Euros) on November 19th, Prince of Persia fans this side of the Atlantic are just plain out of luck. "

It sucks that it's only a European exclusive because even though I have all three games on my GameCube, I would so rebuy them again on my PS3 (you know me, right).

Well it looks like it's been confirmed that the three will indeed make it to our shores after all. Only thing is it'll be available as a digital download as opposed to being on a Blu-ray disc like its European counter part. Although personally, I don't really care. It's Prince of Persia, and I'm still buying them (even though I have all three of them on my GameCube)!

For PS3 owners, all three of the Sands of Time Trilogy are available on PSN for $14.99. Also, if you don't want to digitally download, a physical BD-ROM featuring all three games on one disc will be released on March 22. And, of course, this is a PS3 exclusive.
