Prince of Persia 3D Trailer
by Marcus Yam, Aug 18, 1999 1:15am PDTRed Orb/Learning Company has released a 22MB trailer of Prince of Persia 3D. The download will be delivered by that whacky Gigex software (which is the initial 88KB DL), eliminating the need for a DL resumer like GetRight. Thanks Six88. Hey my download is done. Since I'm nice, here's the lowdown: Think the original Prince of Persia series meets Tomb Raider, thought the camera is no where near as static, but far more dynamic than TR. At the end of the video, it states that the Demo will appear late august, and the game will begin shipping September 19th.

Even from the bad compression in that .avi, it is plain to see that the POP3D team have created a Tomb Raider style game with far more graphical depth, and hopefully none of the TR clipping bugs... demo out soon, we\'ll see then. Since POP basically gave the idea for TR, it is nice to see the Prince pull one back... ;-)
I see, it does unpack a normal .avi which after you\'ve seen the horribly pixelated locked full-screen version, you can then run the normal .avi and see it properly.
Ok, I\'m gonna shut up now. ;-)
Quite a departure from the ol\' 2D Prince in the 386/486 days, eh ? ;-)
