Prince of Persia Review

[Iamnoguitarist]

wow so many different opinions :) i think i'm gonna get it though

[8bitEverything]

Hilary nailed it with that statement. This game is an experience.

So true.

[AppleiPwn4g]

REALLY nice art style, but the combat was SO crap -_-'

[NakshatraS1]

if this game really had graphics as shown in its 1st trailer....this game might be the best prince of persia game

[artx19]

his voice is desmonds from ac.

[TimeBomb014X]

Price of Persia starring Nathan Drake

[stasismustbetheilles]

This is the first game I've ever played start to finish in one sitting. I couldn't stop! This game needs a damn sequel NOW!!

[NakshatraS1]

@stasismustbetheilles it has a sequel search "prince of persia epilogue DLC" on youtube!!! (DAmn every one is asking this QUesTIon!!!!)

[stasismustbetheilles]

@NakshatraS1 That's a damn dlc EPILOGUE not a SEQUEL.

[rockmaster987]

didnt give us a rating.. :/

[NELiXERY]

@rockmaster987 They didn't have ratings back then.

[razorpaw1]

i have Altiars cloths in this game

[Barderoth]

What a load of crap.

[Blackadderxvii]

This prince is Nathan Drake's ancestor

[xxcrazy4gamezxx]

I love this game

[youssef4124]

Assassins Creed Is The best !!

[Pikintool]

@youssef4124 remember made by the same company

[AgentKuo]

I've never had a problem with a game being easy. If it's really fun, I can play for hours. If it's too hard, I'll still work through it, but I tend to take breaks, and come back.

This game is currently $8 for PS3 and $5 for XBox...Why don't I have it yet!?

[minecraft4587]

Lol i want to get my donkey and get out of here

[WannaBeKamikazePilot]

I just finished the game (the credits is rolling) and my only complain is that it is a disappointing end boss. It felt to short...

Btw is he even a Prince? Maybe they should established the actual game title a little bit more because i didn't remember they called him a prince.

But is a good game in the franchise and i am happy to have played it.

[gomes1258]

Same thing as Shadow of the Colossus. This is a piece of art, rather than a video game. One of the best cell-shading graphics so far, amazing story, awesome soundtrack, and an unexpected beautiful ending make this the best of the series for me.

[SAGE4DAWISE]

Did he just say warrior within was cheesy? No that was the best game in the series

[StarSeeker94]

How can it be a negative thing that she saves you when nearly dead? I hate "Game Over" and I love to have a companion with really smart AI :)

[377p]

wish i had a button to use my girl friend......

[tsygohn]

This batch called Warrior Within cheesy. Wow, I couldn't even focus on the rest of his rant. On a side note, this guy doesn't even know what a girlfriend is! Man, this review pissed me off, calling the best of the series cheesy.

[ds37]

first ps3 game I buyed, at first i was pissed by the fact you can't die but the story, the dialogues, and the graphics convinced me to beat the game before trying to sell it on the internet.

[azo9374]

ihave played it and its a shit totally

[NextLaker11]

I freakin love this guy man!! PRINCE FTW!!

[Mrkaz1234567]

yea this game sucked ass

[Delmariiii]

EPIC FAIL !!!

[HeavyVerbzz]

they never got to kiss even once........i was so dissapointed 

[therockerrobert]

i'm not saying this game is bad. i don't like it, because i grew with SOT. they should have named it something else, this is not prince of persia. the true POP is the SOT quadrilogy. i'm curious to see if they will ever release a sequel to this.

[daenarmorril]

@therockerrobert People who grew up with the original 2D Prince of Persia (like me) can say the same thing about Sands of Time.

[TheHephaestus16]

" even you get high enough"

I thought he was talking about drugs?

[chris200830]

now, cos of angry fanboys we'll never find out if the new prince found his donkey or not :(

[gomes1258]

Best game in the series, this should be rated as a piece of art.

[TheMhn5]

tossy dialouge? that honour goes to far cry 2, and dare i say, raven squad

[Executus300]

Hilary? Wow, must have taken a lot of shit from other kids in school...

[yochay94]

except the ease of play and enjoy the visuals?(4:45)

you might as well go see the prince of persia movie

[CReaper210]

Sounds like the guy who voices Nathan in the Uncharted games.

[fatalis4]

@CReaper210 it is :D

[amznk23]

@CReaper210 cause it is

[ExtensiveGamer]

@CReaper210 nah uh. Drake's voice is way cooler! :)

[TheHephaestus16]

@ExtensiveGamer it's the same guy

[TimeBomb014X]

@CReaper210 he is Drake

[patmanguerin]

@CReaper210 Or Desmond in Assasins's

 creed

[turgore]

crap game.

[iCoffeeBlackx]

@turgore its a good game

[rocketben2]

This game is :Assassins Creed of Persia -_-

[brunq1]

@rocketben2 Umm...Prince of Persia came first...

[DefourOwnsYa]

+ things the prince said

- the rest

[brbjuke45]

Nolan North does the voice of the prince?

[supereldinho]

I hate to say this, but the game wasn't that great. I mean you have VERY VERY little enemies, the battle mehanics are a cheap rip-off of Assassin's Creed. And the ending itself is more than enough to piss you off. You defeated the final boss and healed the land, then the Prince undoes all that just to save his girlfriend and walks away with her while the enemy escapes. Ubisoft did that on purpose to give a backdrop for further sequels...

[chris200830]

this was such a good game, why the hell doesnt ubisoft continue this series. are they f***ing stupid? so what if a few dumb people couldn't accept the fact that the old prince's story ended with T2T, it was a great trilogy, time to move on, there's no reason to dismiss the game cause of lack of gore or hack'n slash elements. it's still fun and immersive.

[finlandstudios]

Should I get this or ms splosion man?

[Curevicc]

@finlandstudios So true there are so many tolls

[teddy12300]

stop compaining about ign if you dont agree with their opinon dont watch their videos

[quimerapt]

if you get high enough, lol

[diosmio1000]

Lol nathan drake is prince of persia

[Huskeyyyyy]

Anyone that likes this game is a retard that doesn't know what a challenging game is.

[blackpeopleee]

@Huskeyyyyy The point of the game isn't for it to be challenging.

[Huskeyyyyy]

@blackpeopleee Then please, tell me what the point of the game is.

[punkskater1111]

@Huskeyyyyy Some people play a game for the story. You may not be one of those people, but you don't have to call people retarded because they like a game you don't. That's called being an asshole, sir or madam.

[blackpeopleee]

@Huskeyyyyy

for the story, the imagery, simply playing through it is a joy its self

[Huskeyyyyy]

@blackpeopleee The story? The story is pile of crap. If you think the narrative is good, then you don't know what good story's are.

[AmphibiousKitty]

@Huskeyyyyy "hey guys i don't like this game because it's too casual, so i'll go on the internet and complain because im SUPER HARDCORE MAN! XD"

fixed that for you.

[249136]

very awesome graphics, and the interactions between the prince and princess are excellent, kind of like between Drake and Elena. One thing I freaking hate is the ending.

[mailboy37]

2:03 if you get high enough . If i get high enough i can see even more beautiful things

[DomIgnited]

I like the Prince from the Sands of Time series. Emo? Hardly. Depressed? Wouldn't you be if you unleashed hell on Earth? To me, the Prince from SoT, WW, TT, was more realistic than this Prince.

[Zac6230]

the prince is a jerk becuase most iranians are fucking punk pussies

[ZombieNids]

I really like this game because it's different from any other game i've played

[Drkcloud07]

which PoP should i get this one or Forgotten sands??

[MrThewhiteindian]

@Drkcloud07 Forgotten Sands if your into the previous games, but if you looking for something new get this. Actually just get the two ;) there both super cheap now.

[ZandaPanda08]

didnt like the combat///

[why0isnt0this0workin]

This is my favorite PoP game along with Sands of Time and PoP: Classic (an under-rated gem in my opinion). The visuals are the best, and that along with the new characters, art style, and revamped game-play all add up to a new yet familiar and lovable experience.

[barfjavelin]

the game would be at least twice as good without the stupid yellow flying power plates....

[nairad100]

this is the worst pop game.

[why0isnt0this0workin]

@nairad100 It's worse than Warrior Within? You're joking right? This game kicks ass!

[austinthebookworm5]

"faster than you can say Okami"

love that!! IGN gets extra points from me. okami ftw

[LegoRiddler]

the prince from 1 2 and 3 is king and in prince of persia 4 you play as his son

[TheCrasher92]

This prince a jerk? Wtf this is the best prince by far...! Funny and goofy xD

[why0isnt0this0workin]

@TheCrasher92 And not to mention a total freaking bad ass! I mean, just look at that outfit. And the claw!

[turgore]

@TheCrasher92 he is a faggot.

[Splashy151]

@TheCrasher92 He never said he didn't like it, He just questioned it. :)

[Elektro0Hexe]

@TheCrasher92 You forgot extremely good looking...but thats probably only interesting when youre a girl :D

[AoDPhoenix]

@TheCrasher92 Lol. Hilary says the prince is a jerk because Hilary is a pussy

[NeWFieRHymEs]

@TheCrasher92 and a great voice actor to go with

[codRaler]

@TheCrasher92 the best prince by far??the prince from WW is the best prince ...IMO

[Nherwyziant]

Your hero is invulnerable in this game. I finished this without dying. : /

[shadowkid1993]

the game's visual styles is unlike anything the reviewer ever saw before in a game ? =/

its just cell shaded..

[shadowkid1993]

@OcelotBE a respect that you warn people about spoilers ;)

allot of people just spoil shit on youtube

[DBZisthebestanimever]

@OcelotBE they want to make a sequel so ...

[Bestgameplayer10]

The part I hate is all the light seeds you need to get ( which there are too many ) and their hard to get and too hard to find.

[JohnnyLeyenda]

I'd buy this game just because of Nolan North.

[wanded]

Did he call Warrior Within....CHEAP?!?!0_O

[twist3dlogic89]

how long is it????????

[Dariothemost]

@twist3dlogic89 It's about 10 hours of game :)

[zbddbzproductions]

@twist3dlogic89 in the middle long

[munda1999]

@twist3dlogic89 8 - 10 hours

[RSSJBroly]

28 people didn't find their donkey

[lightspeedkiller]

Loved it, i like that its easy and you cant die, its like a cheat code but not illegal

[staydum93]

i loved the graphics

[iphon3h3lp3r]

Isn't the voice the guy from uncharted Nolan something

[transexualtoothfairy]

I had fun playing it.

[aspasiz]

I'm still waiting for the sequel to this game

[JacquesLow]

@aspasiz

Me 2....

[AnimusPipboy]

@aspasiz Good luck with the waiting :D

[ChristosXcore]

this isnt usuraly my kind of game but i bought the series cheap on steam and played them with my xbox controller. Just completed this one. I didn't enjoy it that much. I found it repetitive and i found my self traveling through the same places and wasting a lot of time in order to get to where i i needed to be. I hope the others are not as odd as this. I did love the art though and the maps and the story. still doesn't make it a great game imo. I wouldn't recommend it.

[rashmighildiyal]

the best part of this movie is the story between dastan and tamania.

[d4ng3l]

I had to change the language to get a different voice for the prince, so freaking annoying and sounds too American/unbelievable to be of royalty or Persia.

[Theonegamefreak]

It's a beautiful game. The story is awesome but...

One huge huge problem.. it's so repetative. You pretty much fight the same bosses over and over and over and over. Yes. 4 times.

[UltraPandamonium]

I'm not a fan of this series, but enjoyed this one. Hope it gets a sequel.

[UndercoverCracker]

@UltraPandamonium Like what the hell. The best ones are Sands of Time, Warrior Within, and of course Two Thrones.

[fatmouth007]

this game is the SOURCE of repetitiveness.

[GAZGHOST123]

@fatmouth007 I couldn't agree more. regardless, it was still fun.

[idogri]

worst game ever , ruined to thrillogy

[yochay94]

if i would have wanted to just lay back and see pretty cinematics and cool acrobatics i would have gone to see a movie.

[darkdrakoslayer]

you seriously cant fucking die in this game its impossible.

[MultiRJ69]

FUCK THIS GAME BUY TWO THRONE OR WW THIS JERK ALL DEPEND ON HER BITCH

[xJuZtiNz]

this is godlike for 2008,love the storyline:) even the prince is a jerk "i want to find my donkey and go home" xD

[blueeyesaf]

The art style looks kind of like a comic book type game, its really cool.

[AnthonyTheAwesome500]

this was fun and i liked the graphic style it had but what happend to the awesome combat that was in warrior within? the only time you actually got to fight anything was the bosses wtf?

[doplys]

@AnthonyTheAwesome500 also the assassinations were great.

[ShortyRulezzz]

This game would have been fine if they had just given it a different name. People were expecting the old prince to be back, and they would have spent the whole game comparing it to the sands of time trilogy. It's no wonder fans were dissapointed.

[batista6242]

@Pendry007 yes he is,nolan north

[lolwut6045]

this shit sucked so much. the trailers were better than the actual game

[Dorgenark1]

@lolwut6045

well yeah, if you were looking for an action game. I happened to love the art style and the environments. Why do you think it "sucked so much"?

[lolwut6045]

@Dorgenark1 the graphics were good just like you said, but, since it is a GAME, it should have good gameplay. but it didn't, it was really boring to play. there were like 4 buttons. it was too monotonous and bland. the only good thing about the game in my opinion was how it looked like a watercolor painting.

[Dorgenark1]

@lolwut6045 I thought it was fun, exploring the over world of the game was pretty enjoyable in my opinion. I really wasn't looking for combat when I played it, I just wanted a world to explore. It is the first PoP game I have played though. I might have felt different if I played a different one before it.

[lolwut6045]

@Dorgenark1 it was the first prince of persia for me to. i thought the world was empty. nice to look at, but empty

[retod4lyfe]

@doubletrouble1990 enslaved pal, 1000% in my opinion enslaved is such an excellent game.

[warwatcher91]

I never did beat the first game for the PS2, but it was fun. Not being able to die, killed the since of danger in this game. The ending to this one was not hte best in the history of gaming.

[machinimamarlon]

There's only 2 problems with this game:

1.That mofo at 3:12 is ANNOYING no really I'm serious..I gained muscle by that boss(Stupid button mashing)

2.The game kinda gets repetitive... Overall,if you're thinking of getting this game,I have one wise tip AVOID THE WARRIOR plot out which powers you wanna gain and make sure that they don't lead to the warrior territories.You will have to face him eventually,so save him for last,get pumped up and beat all the warrior bosses in a row.GL Prince.

[MrFlyTheDragon]

It might be dumbed down, but its still a damn good game.

[black0knightcs]

I wana find my donkey to but evryone knows that wont happen

[Barderoth]

it was a polished, beautiful, story driven, action packed parkour game. well developed

it suffered from one thing though. it...just...wasn't fun

[RaggleFraggle14]

Im sorry, im all for new experiences and dumbing down stuff so a bigger audience can play but this game was boring, it would've been awesome if combat wasn't limited to one v.s one

[Zockanumber1]

The Prince is very similar to Nathan Drake.

[grimmreaperful13]

@Zockanumber1 maybe because their voice actors have have the same voice (almost), and their personalities are very similar to each other?

[P4TTL1]

bought the game for £3.50 second hand the other day, i have to say its well worth it. nothing like the old games i remember playing on the ps2 but still for £3.50 its brilliant lol

[Zombiewaster215]

see?now that was the good old IGN which ACTUALLY gave good games A fair Rating If that review was made now they would say"IT NEEDS MORE POLISH":((

[greenblobo9]

ok i aint a fanboy but this game sucks dick, i mean the music would not play when it was supposed to sometimes cutscenes had no voices when the characters were clearly talking, the graphics tried to be artsy, similar to borderlands, but failed, the camera angles sucked the combat sucked the game sucked

[0Jass]

@greenblobo9 Mate go do your homework everything u said was complete utter shit i hate 12yr old on the internet talking shit

[greenblobo9]

@0Jass i think spending 10 bucks on a faulty game that glitched on a nonscratched perfect disc counts as homework, and 12 year old? im 17 dumbass so do your own fucking homework

[0Jass]

@greenblobo9 mate what where you playing this on cos this game had almost not glitches and the graphics where amazing do you need the check up or something no voices and music not playing was ur experience not every had that happen to them get into your head as i said the graphics where amazing have u got a hd tv ?and the combat was..well it depends you either love or hate it did you even finish or did you go back to cod like all these people do these days

[greenblobo9]

@0Jass bruh i might like cod but i just bought ac2 for the second time yesterday and YES this game glitched its shit in audio and visual department, but maybe it was the disc who the hell knows point is i dont like it and it gave me a thousand good reasons to hate it

[0Jass]

@greenblobo9 Mate This game didn't get a 9.4 from ign for nothing...

[XxSerpent109]

I just wanna find my donkey and go home! :D

[tomerouskiller2009]

i'm a big fan of pop games i have played them a lot of time and also this one and i can say that this us boring unchallenging and has no connection to the other pop games

[forceunleasher]

What is the similarity between Prince of Persia and all other Prince of Persia games? You have no sand,no rewind, a new character,new kind of platforming?? I don't get it......but the game is cool I am a Prince of Persia fan and I'll get it

[0Jass]

@forceunleasher its called a reboot

[forceunleasher]

@0Jass got the platinum already.yes,thank you,I know, it's a great game,I just don't like it when they don't keep the traditions....

[0Jass]

@forceunleasher Ok but they couldn't really keep going the old trilogy it was pretty much tried out they had to make a fresh start

[forceunleasher]

@0Jass maybe you are right

[openyoureyesits1965]

The voice actor is Nolan North, did Uncharted Series, assassins creed series and a butt load of other games

[Daimen555]

This game may be easy but it's more about just kicking back and having a good time jumping around this gorgeous looking land. I usually like shooters and hack n slash but this game really took me and I loved it. Rent it or get it for cheap. At least try it, but it's not for everyone. Ur iether gonna love or gonna hate.

[Daimen555]

@usehaha51 yea it is the same guy as Nathan drake from uncharted. Go wiki his name ( Owen Nolan I think) he has voiced in a shitload of games .

[Usehaha51]

the prince of persia guy sounds like Nathan from Uncharted 2

[pexx1000]

Forgotten sands is much better than this one, but still worse than original trilogy made in 2003/4/5....great graphics, but that's not all that matters...

[mrsalmon1984]

Although many will disagree with me... But this game is soooooooooo boring. It's a weak parkour game that has no substance at all! You just collect the orbs!

Follow This...

1. Save the $20 and don't buy this.

2. Get 100 pennies in your hand.

3. Walk outside & throw all the pennies in the grass.

4. Find them ALL = you win!

That (in a nutshell) is what this game is. Assassins Creed (the first one) was just as bad! Ubisoft blows my mind with how BORING/MIND-NUMBING they make their games.

[geenius3ab]

@mrsalmon1984 First of all the game costs 5 dollars (I think.. Or was it 9 dollars.) .. Anyway it's REALLY cheap..

Secondly, this isn't exactly a action game. Maybe that's why it's so boring to you?.. Honestly this is all about the feel of the game and living into the beautiful world.. This isn't like forgotten sands where you have to blindly button mash your way through.

Parkour isn't what you may think.Other prince of persia's don't have too much parkour in it either.

Great game and story!

[CrystalSphear]

this game pretty much reminds me of aion idk why :D

[Huskeyyyyy]

Anyone that likes this game obviously loves to have Mommy hold their hand while Daddy feeds them a spoon full of lovely orange mush!

[knukleslt]

@Huskeyyyyy wow, its like you know me and everyone else who plays this game. i'm impressed :)

[Chris707ac]

I had this game I wish I never sold it but w/e im going to get again but is this prince of persia better then prince of Persia forgotten sands? because I haven't played that one

[justmebaby65]

this game is nothin but shit

[TheMegaKidBoy]

Is there 2 prince of persia the forgotten sands or what!!!

[CommanderZylo]

27 people wanted to just find their donkey and go home.

[mijo2100]

Is this game before "the forgotten sands" or is it after that one?

[LeXa131997]

@mijo2100 its after

[flattjeff]

beautiful looking game! BUT.. tossy dialogue, w*nk voiceovers, and storyline as thin as my grlfreinds g string, make this game painful to play.

The dry sarchastic american humour makes me want to fork my eyes out!! along with the un-subtle hint of american colours creeping into the princes outfit?? its bad enough he has such a smarmy yanky accent. Allthese distractions cheapen the experience and creates a trashy feel to the gameplay. Not a trace of Persian desent..tragic pooh

[TheCrasher92]

@flattjeff Tossy dialogue?? That what makes the game so special!! o.O

[FudgeYouVideos]

is there a free roam?

[22darthmaul22]

@FudgeYouVideos

The whole GAME is a free roam.

[FudgeYouVideos]

Should i get this or forgotten sands?

Please don't be bias, i am just trying to spend some money on a new game and want to know which is generally better.

[gameboy699]

@FudgeYouVideos i picked up this game today for 20 bucks :D

[newman10155]

@gameboy699 me 2, its 20$ on psn.

this prince is more realistic. the other one was a noble who is extremely nice or a pain. this prince just wants his donkey and wants to get outa here.
