Welcome!
Welcome! Within Warrior Within is a blog written by the Ubisoft folks bringing you Prince of Persia: Warrior Within, the sequel to last year’s critically acclaimed Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time. In the upcoming weeks you’ll see posts by the Executive Producer of the game, Yannis Mallat, the Senior Brand Managers, Danny Ruiz and Delphine Dosset, as well as a number of special guests. Our goal is to give the hard core fans a “behind the scenes” taste of what it takes to make a hit game. We’re hoping to get input from as many people as we can on this, so those of you who are either aspiring to a career in games, or simply curious about the process, please write comments and let us know your thoughts. Check back often – we’re planning on updating this site frequently.
As for me, my name is djnogg, also known as Nate Mordo, the Community Manager (CM) for Prince of Persia. What’s a CM? I’m glad you asked. A CM’s job is to act as a liaison between the community – particularly online – and the company. I frequent the Ubisoft message boards, as well as work on a number of fun online projects. For instance, I recently helped set up the Swordsmen, an online street team for fans to win cool prizes and promote the game. Check it out.
Anyway, that’s all for now. Come back soon!

Wow, this is great! I'm surprised there aren't more comments in the blog, yet. While I was a little skeptical of the dark and grungy look for the game, it's really grown on me. Can't wait to play it.
And I will probably bug you guys some time with questions on getting into the game industry, if that's alright.

Bug away! I'll do what I can to help answer your questions. Ultimately, getting into the game business depends on what role you want to play (business, marketing, PR, development, etc.), how much experience you have, and how persistent you can be. :-)

A MAN FROM PERSIA
Hello
I'm Ashkan from Persia(Iran). I'm a Persian (http://www.iccim.org/English/Iran/kurdistan/images/NatureInUraman2.gif) so I can't speak english as well as I need to explain my problem!
I've some problem with POP.
I want to know "Have any body of POP development team traveled to Iran(Persi)? or even seen any picture from Iran?"
I bought "Prince of Persia The Sands of Time" for my sister.
I wondered of what I saw. Name of game is "Prince of Persia", but I could not see any Persian items.
Every thigs is a complex of ARABIAN and INDIAN culture. and I can strongly say: You must change "Prince of Persia The Sands of Time" to "Prince of Arabia|India The Sands of Time".
why?
Please first read meaning of "Persia":
===========================================================
Per·sia Audio pronunciation of "persia" ( P ) Pronunciation Key (pûrzh, -sh)
1. also Persian Empire A vast empire of southwest Asia founded by Cyrus II after 546 B.C. and brought to the height of its power and glory by Darius I and his son Xerxes. Eventually the empire extended from the Indus River valley in present-day Pakistan to the Mediterranean Sea before Alexander the Great conquered it between 333 and 331 B.C.
2. See Iran.
persia
n 1: an empire in southern Asia created by Cyrus the Great in the 6th century BC and destroyed by Alexander the Great in the 4th century BC [syn: Persia, Persian Empire] 2: a theocratic islamic republic in the Middle East in western Asia; Iran was the core of the ancient empire that was known as Persia until 1935; rich in oil; involved in state-sponsored terrorism [syn: Iran, Islamic Republic of Iran, Persia]

persia
an ancient empire, extending from the Indus to Thrace, and from the Caspian Sea
to the Red Sea and the Persian Gulf. The Persians were originally a Medic tribe
which settled in Persia, on the eastern side of the Persian Gulf. They were
Aryans, their language belonging to the eastern division of the Indo-European
group. One of their chiefs, Teispes, conquered Elam in the time of the decay of
the Assyrian Empire, and established himself in the district of Anzan. His
descendants branched off into two lines, one line ruling in Anzan, while the
other remained in Persia. Cyrus II., king of Anzan, finally united the divided
power, conquered Media, Lydia, and Babylonia, and carried his arms into the far
East. His son, Cambyses, added Egypt to the empire, which, however, fell to
pieces after his death. It was reconquered and thoroughly organized by Darius,
the son of Hystaspes, whose dominions extended from India to the Danube.

===========================================================
Iran is a very very old country and Iranian speak "Farsi" not "Arabic" not "Turkey".
Our culture is "Persian" not "Arabic". We have our own art, music, dance, clothes.
I can't understand why this game is full of the Arabic things.
It's very strange, All people in this game are Arab. They use Arabic clothes and Arabic beard!
At last, the first character, It's based on Arabian nights! with his big trousers.
I hope my comment can acquaint you with REAL PERSIA.
