PoP is one of the finest games I've played in a long while.
It took me under about 10 hours to finish, and the last boss was slightly naff, but it's one of the few games of recent times that I might actually play through again just after finishing it.

The combat does drag on sometimes, but the level design is great, and so fun to use all your athletic moves to negotiate the levels. It's kinda like the bits in Mario Sunshine when you didn't have your backpack; pure platforming bliss.

Got BG&E today - looks great. 55 blocks, though?!?! That's a huge majority of my new Memory Card 251 already gone. Should get Kirby soon, too.

Gah no it's not.

Prince of Persia reminds me of those platforming GAD temples in Shadowman.

I have the GC version and played it on XB in HMV yesterday. There is no difference apart from the loading sequence. GC version has a rotating dagger of time and the Xbox version has a rotation wheel. Both run fine, look fine and sound fine, just goes down to which controller you prefer.

I don't think there are any differences anymore, apart from that if you connect a GBA with POP in to your Gamecube while playing Prince of Persia, it regenerates you're health. The Xbox version probably has slightly better graphics and sound though, although I'm not sure...
