Video game history was made with Prince of Persia. Featuring a truly life like feel in the animation due to a rotoscoping technique, this 1989 Apple II game would get ported to a variety of systems both in its prime as well as quite recently. Here we're taking a look at the 1990 Commodore Amiga port, where along with the DOS version, is probably the most iconic version of this computer designed platformer. This is an American Amiga game, shown here in contrast to most other videos in its original 60hz NTSC mode with a 4:3 aspect ratio.

I also mentioned a nice Ms. Mad Lemon video of Prince of Persia that I'd recommend to others: https://youtu.be/WpNqdLqX-PY
