    PRINCE OF PERSIA THE TWO THRONES

    OVERVIEW:The prince of persia franchise has born decades and decades.Aafter the original prince of persia created by Jordan Mechner it was obsious that this series has a future.After years of succesful titles of the noblous prince ubisoft deside to reborn the series to it's routs with the help by Jordan Mechner.Whenthe prince of persia the sands of time came out back in 2003  was a diamond for the series because had awesome platforming and that the series is all about,a nice combat system and the agily prince himself.then a sequel came out with a darker tone,an angry prince and rock metal songs.It was a food decide but lose very much of the magic of prince of persia franchise.With all that mess ubisoft decide to put an order to prince of persia with prince of persia the two thrones a revolution to the series.GAMEPLAY:The two thrones combines the gameplay and the two worlds the combat of warrior within and the platforming and puzzles of  the sands of time.The gameplay in the third game is more fun and depth.A new addicion to the series is the stealth kills or as called in the game speed kills.That kills can be done when the game warning you with a heart break sound and the screen go buzy.Then you must to put the Δ button for the PS2 version and when the dagger flashes you must strike with the proper button.The result is awesome with the animation of the prince jumping from his enemies heads and kill them with cool moves.There arent'n not dificult but not so easy are good for casual gamers.Another new addicion is the introduction of the chariot races.This races require from you to go from point a to point b.But are very dificult to control the and frustrating because if you his means death of course if you have sand tanks.Thera are only two sections of them and ubisoft perhaps undrestand her mistake.The prince now have some news acrobatic skills as well such as jumping from stulters,stab his sword on dagger plates,stand on poles above them and slide down or climb between two walls.From this new skills the prince can do speed kills too.Another new addicion is better boss battles that in warrior within had but was weak.You will meat a giant named klompa 6 fot tall,a female mahasti,another giant that you can control him the stone guardian,the twins,the vizier and the dark prince[informations later].The music and sound effects are incredible and you can hear anything even the  shouts of citizens.The muzic is with midle eastern songs instead of warrior within with rock and heavy metal.The bigest new addicion to the game is the dark side of the prince.We se him in warrior within as he tied to change his fate.His doing another come back butthis time around is more baddass with his skin corupted by the sands of time and a deadly weapon refered as the dagertail.This special weapon can use it in combat to kill multiple enemies at a time.The attacks that you do with this weapon is awesome to wach and more awesome to do it you.Also can be used to reach  places that the normal prince can't ,put out blocks of walls and catch from obgects.The dark prince can do speed kills of course and he can strugle his enemies with cool animations.The animation of the prince,the dark prince and all of the characters is fluid..The combat remains from the last game and you can wield two weapons at a time do double combat technicues and more.This time the combat in two thrones is more fun and satisfyed.the controls are very good too.GRAPHICS:The  graphics aren't as they was in the sands of time but are fantastic.The lighting,the enviroments,the detail all are design to give a huge gameplay and scale experience.STORY:The story continues from warrior within left off.The prince sets with kailena from the island of time to the babylon but instead the peace he longs for he finds his land and kingdom ravmpaged by war.Now he must stop the vizier once and for LASTING APEAL:The two thrones is the best prince of persia yet with new addicions to keep  the whole experience fresh and a story that is fantastic for a conclusion of a fantastic franscise.Everything frome the gameplay to the story,combat,platforming and graphics is awesome.Is a perfect game for every gamer that likes to playng video games.

      Dear god, what happened here? Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time was game of the year.
