    Boring and Simple.

    Prince of Persia is back, but is it the same great game just like the others had to offer or is it 2 steps short of average. To start my disappointing review over a disappointing game it's not as good as critic's say it was, of course it was just paid ads. The story starts out you coming out as the prince traveling through the sahara desert and you run into a female that is being chased by guard's trying to capture her well surprising she is a princess escaping from her dad's castle because she feels betrayed, why I don't know. It just so happens that you are in the mix of darkness taking over the world and you team up with the princess to stop it, oh and did I mention sh has cool looking powers(not really that cool). The gameplay also feels simple and the fighting is kind of boring because it has the same sequence and theme and it never changes. As the you progress through the story you'll notice that it's the same thing over and over and it's not that exciting until the end and then it starts picking up. The visuals seem like a cartoonish look to it and it dosen't have any breath taking moments to it which it would be nice to have but just another disappointment, the worls itself surprisingly large but still needs work because it seems empty. Overall don't bother with it and just stick with the old prince of persia's their much better than this failure.

Batman did it, James Bond did it, Star Trek is going to do it, The Incredible Hulk did it after only one bad movie, and now we have a video game in Prince of Persia, which ignores the Sands of Time trilogy or all of the quick death traps of the original game and starts anew. Oh, it’s an action platformer by the way.Stor...

      Flaws are to be overlooked in order to enjoy Prince of Persia 0

      With Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time, Jordan Mechner's highly successful and revolutionary game series was reborn, and people liked it. Even if the stylistic changes in the sequel were not appreciated by everyone, the Sands of Time trilogy was still a resounding success. With this new Prince of Persia, the series receives its second reboot in a very short period of time, which is signified by its lack of a subtitle. The game has one big thing in common with its predecessors: the focus on ext...
