Prince of Persia delayed a year (don't worry, we mean the movie)

Alright, that was mean of us. Never fear, for the delightful Prince of Persia we fell in love with at E3 is still set for a Holiday 2008 release on Xbox 360, PS3 and PC. The one headed to movie theaters, however, has been pushed back a year to May 28, 2010, according to ComingSoon.net. Reasons for the delay were not made apparent.

In case you haven't been keeping up with the project, have at these pertinent Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time facts:

• It stars Jake Gyllenhaal, Gemma Arterton, Ben Kingsley and Alfred Molina.

• It's produced by Jerry "more 'splosions" Bruckheimer.

• It's directed by a man who's having his assistant play the game.

• It's "not a video game movie."

• It is a movie based on a video game.
