Prince of Persia rated by Germans for XBLA

Thursday, April 12th, 2007

Filed under: , ,

Get ready for two big words. The German Unterhaltungssoftware Selbstkontrolle (USK) ratings board recently tested a game called Prince of Persia Classic — it received a +12 years of age rating. The Germans were being kind giving it that rating considering the difficulty level of the original game; they’re sparing young gamers a lot of grief. Players who are old enough — or unlocked this classic in their copy of Prince of Persia: Sands of Time – know what we’re talking about.

We wait to see when the American ESRB rates the game to confirm that it’s not some kind of Europe-only XBLA exclusive. Having the original Prince of Persia on XBLA will show those young whippersnappers how good and easy they’ve had it since the Sands of Time.
