looks like its gonna be a PSP bashing and frustrating game trying to do all those moves and getting to certain areas..

of course, all depending on the controls and camera obviously

Looks like the camera moves by itself depending on what you are doing. If you are jumping between two walls it would pick a side and get an almost profile shot. If you are running on a wall, it would do the same. If you are hanging on a ledge or a pole it gets right behind you. I assume since the level designers are aware of the camera at all times, there wont be any screw-ups.

What yous should be worrying about are the controls and size of the level. Really, it boils down to the basics of platforming and adds some(hopefully good things), so it is a question of "is it addicting or boring to do this over and over". If they keep it fresh over the entire hopefully (atleast almost) load screen free map, it can be a very good game.

Reminds me of SSX but on foot.

so basically, this game is like real life imitating Prince of Persia?? maybe if they'd have thrown in some brawls in between the free running, it might have made for a cool looking Jackie Chan game. But, as it is, i can't see this game being particularly exciting.

The PoP developers said they got all his moves from free running (aka parkour).

Still, I'd rather just play PoP
