The first official trailer for Jerry Bruckheimer's The Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time is now up for all the internet to see. Spotted on television and uploaded to the YouTubes, the quality isn't the best, but it's good enough to draw some impressions (read ours right here). The long and short of it, it actually looks pretty good. Of course, the trailer is comprised mainly of quick cuts of action and narration filled with cliched adventure story tropes. Then again, as a video game adaptation, maybe that's to be expected.

Still, there doesn't appear to be anything overtly awful just yet, so the hope is still alive. If Bruckheimer can turn a theme park ride into a successful film franchise, maybe, just maybe, he can do it with a game too. Watch the trailer after the break, and keep an eye out for a high quality version on Joystiq later this week.
