The Prince of Persia team must be feeling quite smug at the moment what with EA telling the world that all
Assassin's Creed was was
POP in a new guise.
Below you can see just how happy the POP team is in this video dev interview in which the chaps speak freely about art direction (it's "illustrative" because it draws on "illustration", swashbuckling, healing the world, dessert trays and the fact that you're not in reality.
The fact that the movies contains gameplay footage doesn't hurt either.
Enjoy.
