To coincide with the release of the new Prince of Persia game today - a reset of the famous series with a whole new lead, gameplay experience and visual style - Gameplayer (http://www.gameplayer.com.au/gp_documents/081203Princeinterview.aspx) has spoken in-length with the game's producer Ben Mattes about a range of subjects. This obviously includes the inspirations for the drastic changes seen in the new Prince of Persia, but also commentary on reviews scores vs. sales, how Assassin's Creed 2 will show up reviewers, and the future of Jade Raymond in Beyond Good & Evil 2.
Basically the Prince of Persia games have always attracted the best illustrators, so our initial art has always been some of the best in the industry. When we released those illustrations to our fans, they would always love it, so it seemed fitting that we create a style that paid homage to that – to create a world that mimicked that original vision more accurately.
