New Prince of Persia is shown.  Critics already claiming game will contend to be game of the year.  Coming Holiday 2008.  Ellica, female character that moves alongside you.  She never falls behind and can save you if you die.  Helps you go further, go faster.  Open world, player can choose the path you want to take.

When interrupted by an enemy, enter combat mode.  Centers around the idea of a duel.  You and Ellica versus the enemy.  Sense of urgency of a boss battle versus every enemy.  Acrobatic combat and dynamic camera angles.

Climbing and moving through environment improved to allow casual players able to move around without having to die all the time.  If you fall off, Ellica acts as a safety where she will seamlessly bring you back to the previous platform.  This avoids having to go through a continue screen just to try again.

Small emphasis on the look and feel, artisitic direction of the new Prince of Persia.  Everything in the game world looks beautiful.
