The section implying a conspiracy that the Sands Prince and original Prince were supposed to be the same (and was changed only after WW and TT) is bullshit. The cited interview never says they are the same (nor implies it)- just because something is hinted at being a prequel does not mean it features the same characters. I believe it was explicitly stated elsewhere that one is the descendant of the other. The "Classic" remake features the Sands characters because that is what people relate with nowadays- in example, "Classic" has the Vizier as Jafar, which clearly couldn't have happened (even if Sands had not had sequels) being as the Vizier was killed at the end of "Sands." And, in the little extra 3D version of the old game included with Sands: the only reason they used the new Prince model is because, well... it's easier than making a whole new one!
Even IF they had originally thought of the two Princes being the same, it was most definitely changed by the end of Sands' production- games go through a LOT of changes in their development!! 72.198.83.143 (talk) 06:17, 9 February 2008 (UTC)
- I agree. Although the developers called (and maybe still call) the new series a prequel, that doesn't mean the two princes are the same character. I edited the article accordingly, with a new reference link. If you have a link to the article/interview/whatever where it's stated they are family, please add it to the article as well. The part about the art in POP Classic and the SOT bonus level is very likely, especially considering the comment about old games vs new series in aforementioned link, but still technically conjecture.

[edit] New POP Game.
New information about the next Prince of Persia game has been released in a French gaming magazine. We need to create a new page for this game. Scans and general information gleaned in these links: http://loading.se/forum.php?thread_id=38325 http://twobrothersandasister.com/?p=1989 Max Corbetti (talk) 23:56, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
- An article? No, not yet. But definitely a developed section on this article. On magazine article isn't enough information to support an article. Rau's Speak Page 00:24, 30 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Plot shortenings
Considering that this is an article about the series, the plot sections shouldn't go into deep detail about the plot. Just touch on them. If no one does it, I'll do it myself. ♣ Klptyzm Chat wit' me § Contributions ♣ 05:50, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] All around article overhaul
This article can easily be a GA, but in my opinion, it needs a few elements: a History section detailing creation adn whatnot, a bit more detail in the intro paragraph (could have 1 or 2 more paragraphs), a Reception section and an Overview section of what the series is about. ♣ Klptyzm Chat wit' me § Contributions ♣ 06:32, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] The Two Thrones
The game title "The Two Thrones" is being sold, at least in Europe, under the title of "Rival Swords." This information obviously should be included in this article, but cannot be written due to lack of external resources thus far. 195.23.182.8 (talk) 14:11, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
