Everyone loved Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time. Which is why the new Prince of Persia - out this week - is ostensibly a sequel to everyone's favourite Prince of Persia game. And it's really good. Wanna win it?
UPDATE: This draw is now closed.
Thanks to Ubisoft we have EIGHT copies of Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands to give away this week. That's four copies on PlayStation 3 and four on Xbox 360.
We also have EIGHT Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands official Prima guides as well, pictured. So you win the game and the guide. If you win, that is.
We already gave away five copies last week. That means there are three left for today, tomorrow and Wednesday.
How do you enter?
Easy. It's limerick time once more. All you have to do is write a Prince of Persia themed limerick in the comments below. Normally I give you the opening line, but this time you're free to choose your own. Just make sure the limerick is about the Prince of Persia!
Entries for today's 360 draw will close at midnight tonight. No multiple entries please - but you may enter the next draw using a new limerick or perhaps a haiku. Make sure you leave a valid email or comment via Facebook Connect.
And Friday's PS3 winner is:
Will!

Cheeky. Respect to Ryan Stalgis, Chris McAlister, Alex Dullard and Aron for making the decision extremely difficult.

Well done will - or as they say in New Zealand - Will done Well
Then once indeed was a dashing prince
in the face of danger t'would never wince
and though quite charming
could oft be alarming
but has stayed in out consoles ever since
T'was once a comp from kotaku
which beckoned with gifts most taboo
a game with a guide
a way not bona fide
of beating it first playthrough!
Congratulations Will!
Well done Will. That made me giggle. No offence David, but hopefully I can help make today's decision difficult as well:
spikes the see Didn’t God! My
balls got I’ve show I’ll
walls on running While
pikes with Persians bad from run To Why?
Nikes of pair new a me got I
Response your like i, Alex done well
Very clever. :)
Haha, I have no chance!
I think anybody with a decent one will save it for another day, now!
A sinking feeling had met Jaffa,
for the young Prince had made it this far.
The hassle to nail,
some hot princess tail,
"I should have tried my luck at a bar"
The prince released an army of sand men,
fooled by the Vizier; events arose again.
But with his dirk
he defeated the clerk.
Disrespecting the mightiness of the pen!
Bugger! Congrats to Will.
Dammit, only one chance left tomorrow...
Ubisoft presents a(nother) Persian adventure,
Hoping to void Red Steel 2's debenture.
It's the time of the year,
More sequels are near,
I feel like I'm getting dementia!
Well done Will! Good luck 360 buckeroos. :D
Heeding his Farah's call,
The Prince, in haste leapt to a wall,
He began to run forward,
But forgetting his sword,
He suffered a rather great fall.
The Prince of Persia is a hit franchise
It's based on a story of misfortune and lies
The success of the game started on PC
then onto consoles, its clear to see
Now a movie, its success continues to rise
Running quickly on the sandy track
The Prince fought off all manner of attack
He wished he'd dressed wiser
To protect from the flies Sir
And help keep the sand from his crack
The battle is on once again,
Save the kingdom from all skeletons,
The prince got out his sword,
Used the sands to his accord,
And defeated all who remained
There once was a prince who called Persia home
He was just one man, yet he wasn't alone
He had the ability to go backwards in time
So he could avoid the troubles he thought he left behind
Only if Gray Powell could use it to get the his lost iPhone
There once was a Prince who was Persian
But it seems to be more than one version
There's shoulder length hair
and there's a chest that is bare
Please, bring back the chap in the turban!
The Prince is back looking Bad,
Visiting his Bro who dwells in Azad!
With the palace getting schtick...
he rewinds time in the knick
Showing Assassins* he ain't just a Fad!
*Altair and Ezio have some original competition here! Could the prince be a former Assassin?
On his way through the gardens to the tower
There were plenty of faces looking glower
The Prince was unwise
Until he heard all the cries
Of the People shouting, "Don't step on the flowers"
For the old Prince we held adoration,
But a new one took over his station,
We wrote up a eulogy
But hark a quadrilogy!
I believe it is time for Celebration!
The Prince weilded his stick,
Er, I mean dagger. Sorry I'm thick,
In Ireland he struck,
I mean Persia... Uh F**k,
*Goes back in time to fix Limerick*
Bruckheimer and the guys from Ubi
Coincided their game and their movie
If you believe all the hype
The picking is ripe
For the financiers to get quite groovy
There once where some games quite fun
But the Prince of Persia trilogy was done
But then the usual story
The developer ignored the history
For the profit of their number one!
The great prince has nothing to do
just idley waiting for you
he sit there because
you forgot to press pause
when you got up to do number two!
sitS!!! +s!!! doh!
O my sweet dearest chesty Jake
Thou art a truly handsome rake
Thy sparse manly thatch
Simply has no match
Come hither, I wish to partake!
There once was a prince who forgot his sands,
spinning time to search the lands.
Alas, the search was in vain,
the sand in his pants causing quite the pain.
The sands were never lost,
but found in the next sequal at a cost.
Be nice, this is my first limerick comp :)
Dam, ok here it is with correct spelling :P woops

Dammit, just realised a limerick is meant to be AABBA, where as mine is AABBAA, oh well, learn something new every day :P
There once was a prince who controlled time
He often stuffed up and had to rewind
But one tragic day
He forgot to press play
And reverted to the uterus in slime
