wow, i never expected this thread not to have any responses, do you people know what this game is? I have played the demo, it is unbelievablely beautiful,

Ok here goes, the first thing i noticed with this game is just how beautiful the scenery is, the wind kicks up dust, the fire looks real, the sounds come at you from all sides.
Second, the controls are easy to get used to, the fighting style is great, the Prince can do some spectacular manuveres, such as a front slash followed by a somersault over the victim to end with a back slash and a stab with the magical dagger.
Third, the dagger, it imbues the wielder with magical abilities, such as slowing down time. There were some sweet bullet time sequencies, that did not even bring to mind any of the bullet time games.
Fourth, the puzzles are cool, difficult, yet not frustratingly so, still, this was the demo, there may be tougher ones in the final version.
Fifth, and the sweetest looking thing in the game, the wall run, for short bursts, the Prince can run along a wall for a short distance, much like the ninja in shinobi, but only for 5 seconds or so. I can see this engine being used in many spiderman games in the future.

after playing the demo, i realised that this is a definate must have for my collection, check it out, you may like it too.
