New Prince of Persia game Screens - P.S. Claws are Cool

May. 27 12:02 AM by Mark Burnham

The first official screens for the next Prince of Persia game have been released, featuring the Prince himself with a brutal death-mitt of sorts. Which got me thinking. The recent trend in that action/adventure/fantasy genre, i.e. Ninja Gaiden, Dark Sector, etc., where you navigate some brooding badass on a quest of bloodshed, is that claws are majorly in. They're the new swords. Any sort of gauntlet, or death-fist, you're not a one man army unless you have one of those. I think this is great. It shows a shift in the aesthetic of these sorts of heroes. They're grittier, more like fearless scrappers than swordsmen.

Just sayin'. Also, very welcome addition to Prince of Persia with the cel-shaded graphics too.

I blame Wolverine for starting the trend.
