Prince of Persia: Rival Swords sneaky little killer gameplay

From Tenchu to Metal Gear Solid to Splinter Cell, the principles of the stealth kill have been laid out as thus:

Don't let the enemy see you. >Don't let the enemy see you. > Oh, for heaven's sake, DON'T let the enemy see you. > You sure the enemy hasn't seen you? Sic him. > Done? Hopefully other enemies haven't seen you, or else it's all over. > Wait, you mean the enemy SAW you? ALERT MODE!!! 99.99... (Stealth Kill Fission Mailed.)

Or, just watch how the Prince does it in this GDC 2007 video of Ubisoft's bringover of Prince of Persia: Rival Swords (The Two Thrones) for the PSP. Comes complete with exact button-mashing tutorials, too, as well as his usual fare of acrobatics that's going to knock Raiden's socks off (And yeah, the vid looks a bit hazy. Maybe GameTrailers was capping it off with a not-really-shakycam or something).

I am not sure if this was announced prior to this trailer, but I am disappointed with Ubisoft. Their last PoP game for the PSP was a port of WW and while I like all the 3 PoP games in the Sands of Time trilogy why can't we have a new game that kinda takes place in the storyline but like a .5 game (briding the game or something). This is just another port and while TT on the go isn't a bad thing I just rather have something new and fun to play all together.

PSPNerd why arent you dissapointed with squaresoft and konami (castlevania) as well? and add sega to the list since all their psp games so far pretty much suck.

I just hope Ubisoft learns from their previous mistakes. I don't want to play another PoP as glitchy (and lacking of a constant fps speed) as the first PSP entry.

Gotta love how crumbling buildings with holes and exposed beams and such can still support the weight of a grown man jumping about. Oh how I love game physics.

Castlevania is not a port. Sure, it was released in Japan like 1000 years ago, but it was never released in the US. As far as Im concerned I've never played it so its new to me.
