Prince of Persia looks incredible and has a very unique feel, but the level design is very "gotcha" and requires a lot of trial-and-error. Although the prince moves sluggishly, I did find the movement to be satisfying in its own way. Similarly the sword fights were very exciting once I got the hang of them. But I can't bear the thought of exploring dungeons with nearly invisible traps that require either foreknowledge or a tedious examination of every pixel of the environment.
