Well, the Prince of Persia Sands of Time remake may be dead but the original is still available to play. Now seems a perfect time to.
If you need some incentive, read my words! It's one of my favourite games.

I'm playing more Final Fantasy X again and for some reason it's always in bursts. Like a long 3 or 4 days then don't touch it for months lol which is a shame because I do love this game.
Like as soon as this starts I warm up so much.
