  • i got this game but i could hardly take the story serious so i stopped, cause with out the story i was just wasting my time.

  • Why does the prince look like a cross between Colonel Gadaffi and Tommy Wiseau?

  • the plot between the first three prinve of persias was excellent especially for sands of time but forgootten sands wasnt so good since there wasnt much of anything to put in between warrior adn sands

  • the prince's face looks like a monkey and a camel both shitted on....

  • i played WW, T2T and this one and i must say this game has something really annoying whenever the camera goes around (which is quiet common) i find it (somehow) disturbing. the water idea is awesome but the fighting is EXTREMELY BORING and the environment is pretty much the same... if you ask me:

    graphics: MODERN!

    soundtrack: WW :D

    Violence: WW

    Combat: WW (many secondary weapons and many enemies) + T2T (swift kill O.O)

    environment: less dark than WW and less repetitive... maybe T2T...

  • The combat is plain boring. The platforming, however is really good with the water and recall parts but idk why the usual sand powers were cut out. The control the elements in combat is nothing but a gimmick. Mainly why the game fails is because of the failed plot. Razia is a poor companion compared to Farah; Ratash is no where as scary and mysterious as the Dahaka and Malik as a personal enemy pales to the tainted prince because his relationship with the prince was underdeveloped.

  • They forgot to add in a block button -__-

  • @dopeboyswaagg you can just roll and dodge or stop an attack

  • But the graphics do look good...?

  • Wait a sec...I have PoP Forgotten Sands for the Wii. Why is it a different game altogether? The storyline isn't even the same!

  • one problem i had with the game; wall running looked really stupid and didnt feel right.

  • I really like the graphics

  • smh

    

  • Make a sequel to Prince of Persia (2008 version), please! Don't leave us hanging.

  • This is actually a good game. Yeah the story is forgettable but the platforming was superb. One could argue that the game's difficulty drastically increases towards the end but I felt overcoming these nearly impossible obstacles very rewarding. Above everything, this game featured the easiest set of Trophies I've ever had to earn so I recommend this game to anyone who is looking to earn a Platnium Trophy wihout having to work too hard. I bought it for only $15 and it was well spent.

  • @curtiscoyoteblue Well I could understand you :)..I believe its the first POP game you've ever played? :)..u know cuz if you played the previous POP games and loved them by heart and when u play this u would want to flush this game in the toilet trust me.This game feels like God Of War..which is NOT good..just my opinion tho :)

  • @TheWitchking123 I played "The Sands of Time" and "Warrior Within". "The Sands of Time" was my favorite because it had the best story and I hated "Warrior Wtihin" because it was too damn frustrating. "Forgotten Sands" is nowhere on the level of "Sands of Time" but it was still a decent game. "Warrior Within" was the one that truly felt like "God of War" to me. The main difference between the two gameplay wise is I never wanted to rip my controller in half during "God of War" battles.

  • one question , you gave revelations which you called the best ac yet an 8.7 ? I HATE IGN.

  • i though the graphics were really fucking bad asss n this guy said they r k wtf i think im blind im blind!!!!!!!!!! oh no is coz i play on the xbox he probably was playing the game on the ps3 thats why he said the graphics were k ....ppl play this on xbox it looks way better lol

  • I like how he says the games built of the asssasins creed engine when assasins creed came after the pop series. get yo facts straight ign

  • @dopeboyswaagg dumbfuck he's speaking about the GAME ENGINE!!!! the anvil engine,the engine which powers assassin's creed 1,pop4,2,pop FS,ACB,ACR,and so on.....

  • @RaYk1LL3r calm ur tities goof

  • @dopeboyswaagg get your facts straight dumbass.

  • it's an awesome game, but the thing i was a bit dissapointed about was:

    1 you see an very high definition dvd part, 2 the game begins and te graphics suck after seeing such a good dvd part which looked like an awesome movie..

    But without further ado, it's an awesome game and more people should play it ;)

  • @SilkeWay yeah.POP was pretty much known for its killerass cinematics,and that game had one of the best i've ever seen in my life.but ONLY ONE FUCKING CINEMATIC!!!!??? i wanted it to have like as much cinematics as FF for example.

  • @RaYk1LL3r

    Same.. ;)

  • How many bosses do you fight at the game?

  • Please make Warrior Within with better graphics, please, I'm begging you!

  • @LittleNoobGamer they've already released a hd remake of the original trilogy

  • @brutelements

    It's not sure that they're going to do all of them.

  • @LittleNoobGamer can't agree more

  • @LittleNoobGamer Didnt they do a HD Collection a while back?

  • @cosmic93

    Ehh, no?

  • @LittleNoobGamer /watch?v=jt9UcT52Tqo

    Ehh... Yes

  • @cosmic93

    They should have put those graphics in the video.

  • @LittleNoobGamer buy the prince of persia trilogy, they remastered the graphics for all three 3 games

  • @people12345

    I don't have money and those graphics aren't in every country

  • @LittleNoobGamer That would be amazing.

  • I miss the old combat system, looking from above with swams of enemies was disappointing to say the least. The plot was indeed a lot weaker, but I didn't really find anything wrong with the graphics, it's not as good as assassins creed 2, but it wasn't that noticeable.

  • I wouldve liked less enemies. They seem much summer and slower in the Forgotten Sands than the Sands of Time. In the Sands of Time, you had to block, parry and dodge. This should be called "The Forgotten Block", as it seems the Prince has forgotten how to block. The combat in this game was good but the enemies couldve used their swords more skillfully and we shouldve been able to block attacks.

  • So, what PoP should i pick up if I'm looking for good platforming, replayability and that still holds up well today?

  • @definer0 I think you should buy The two thrones

  • @definer0 get the first one bro, it's great.

  • The gameplay is good :D, but the story is boring -.-

  • It's the best Prince of Persia game i ever played.I waiting for a new series of prince of persia.

  • POP: Forgotten Sands i the best

    U see The Graphics of Sands of Time and Forgotten sands!

    The bEst Forgotten Sands

  • @suncity98

    That's the problem of lot of games lately.

    They think graphics are more important than a good story.

  • @anomnomnymous i know even y friend thinks that a graphics are more important but god story always wins

  • @anomnomnymous Really??..Really??...REALLY??.­..sorry for the 3 months late reply but honestly Forgotten Sands has the worst graphics of ANY POP game! Most of the environments are dull and bland,its WAYY less colorful,environments are simply..meh and..everything in this game is SHIT! Animations...terrible..Gamepla­y..meh..Story..ABYSMAL.This game is a failure in every way...it pains me to say this but this is the worst POP game..EVER!..And I can't fucking believe it got an 8 it deserves a 5.0 tbh.

  • @anomnomnymous And even more developers think good story is more important than good gameplay(which is true for Mass Effect, and only Mass Effect)

  • this game is not as good as the POP series that was released on the ps2 & xbox back then glad that they released the classic series on a collection remastred in HD for the ps3 those are worth the money more than this game.

  • the CGI opening cutscenes for this game kinda reminds me of uncharted 2 graphics.

  • @Brotherhood2 lets not be so intolerant...i mean the trilogy of the sands its all in all amazing and every episode had something different to offer the sands of time charm and story....warrior within bad ass combat system and atmosphere that made it one of the best pop title and two thrones was the end of the series with speed kill innovation.... all in all great game the last 2 sequel fu**d up the series....hope in future they will fix it :(

  • is this game good

  • @TheJermaine2343 If you played the original prince of persia for the ps2 and xbox, you might be just alittle disappointed due to the dull story line. the game takes place between sands of time and warrior within, however, playing through the game it gave no hints to about warrior within, but aside from it, i still enjoyed the game, and you might too. =)

  • beautifull.... i fnished warrior within the sands of time and the two thrones... never played this one. thanks to the creator of this magnifique game...

  • anyone know when the next POP gonna comes out?

  • So is this Wii?

  • @MrHugawookie this is the ps3 , PC and 360 version there's a wii version as well but it's so diffirent at gameplay and story.

  • in what terms did you call this game's graphic awful?? sharp textures, you can see the texture of prince's clothes and Malik's armor clearly.. the lighting's very good also.. i just don't understand why this guy said ACII graphic was better than this.. but then again.. fair review.. i would've given it 8.0 also

  • thanks god greg miller didnt review this

  • the is not so much a deal though the dual weiding dark atmostsphere made it much more fun for me personaly

  • the is not so much a deal though the dual weiding dark atmostsphere made it much more fun for me personaly

  • The IGN guy is gay.He thinks the prince looks handsome.

  • @thehbomb10001

    You are kid. You think girls are cute, you're a faggot for liking pink puppies and women. Reverse phycology is a bitch

  • @chesney121

    whats wrong with thinking girls are cute? r u a gay activist or something? lol

  • @Ilikemonkeysful

    Well no I'm perfectly straight. But how is one gay for calling another handsome? You wouldn't fucking complain if it were a girl saying the woman is sexy; you'd most likely start jerking off.

  • @chesney121

    whoa whoa I never said sdomeones gay for clling someone handsome, wth did I say that? and stop talking out of ur ass if u dont know crap about me, foo

  • @Ilikemonkeysful

    It's FOOL. It's CALLING. It's YOUR. Talk tidy you lump of trash.

  • @chesney121

    wtf is your problem? did I say anything wrong? u have some serious anger issues u gay cunt

  • @Ilikemonkeysful

    Maybe I do, yet I'm still better than you.

  • @chesney121

    k good for you keep thinking that just shut up ur like a anooying little 5 yeart old girl, I didnt sar crao to you and you just start raging..wow

  • As a platform gamer primarily this is by far my favorite PoP game.

  • IGN reviews are the best!

  • Easy game to Platinum. Got it in less than a day. I recommend using the uPlay Points for the Timed Challenge arena. Makes it go ALOT faster.

  • Good Review for once

  • The wii version was better.

  • this game is shit

  • 3:10 ....temporary invincibility?? That isnt a power ign moron i think you mean stone armour

  • the best pop game is prince of persia 2008!

  • @iwams1 The best pop game that is also the most casualized hold your hand game is prince of persia 2008!

    fix that for you.

  • SANDS OF TIME was so fokcing good, one the the best first games that ive played.

    WARRIOR WITHIN was so focking cool too, in it the fights and the story were perfects, and the music was so good.

    Sory but this game look more like Dantes Inferno or God of War than the Prince of Persia, it has not the concep of what is Prince of Persia, thats why this part for ME sucks, SUCKS too much, i dont even buy it, it just got the name of Prince of Persia, nothing more.

  • @Kondoriano2 How can you say it sucks when you haven't played it?

  • @JamieWilmotSOS

    1. I said is my OPINION.

    2. Said "i dont even buy it" that doesnt mean "didnt play it"

  • sireusly ign on almost all games u say the characters are not memorable jeez will u stop that

  • @GodHelpMrG what if they made a reboot, due to time things , anyways the prince wasnt meant to die in the sot im pretty sure of it, or maybe the first recall counts

  • no the best is the two thrones

  • has any1 noticed that in dis game the prince has kind of a wierd face

  • I am a Big fan of everything that is Prince of Persia starting with 1989 and ending with the 2008 Reboot (All tough I would have liked more of a challenge considering I was fighting an all powerful Satanic Good)

    This game however, felt like the guys at Ubisoft ware only trying to rip of the success of the Prince of Persia Movie.

    The princes face looks like it was inspired by The Grinch, and the combat was just... Bad

    And the animations of the prince are stolen from the 2008 prince

  • If it doesn't say Jordan Mechner on the game box am not buying it

  • I enjoyed this game, fun and enough of a challenge without being frustrating while adding enough new elements to keep it entertaining. The combat controls worked better than 2008 Prince Of Persia.

  • I think they rushed this game to meet the movie release. They could've made it excellent, but it's a good game nonetheless.

  • I luv prince of persia series.... Its story is awsome ....... I like its graphics and weapons . skills etc

    best games i hav ever had

  • I don't understand what's wrong with the graphics. I thought they looked fine.

  • @why0isnt0this0workin this game was made using the same engine assassins creed used, therefore it could of looked as good or even better than AC, but for some reason it didn't and that's why he points it out.. dont get me wrong i thought the graphics looked pretty good too but when u compare graphics to AC i see the difference, and its big.

  • shit game

  • @MrPhreakyPhresh "I don't like this game, so I'll go on youtube, type in a review of it, and say it's shit."

    Fixed that for ya.

  • @AmphibiousKitty yeh im not gonna argue with that, i just wanted to see what other people thought of this game

  • i love how IGN is always about the graphics

  • only 5 dollars on steam for the next 15 hours.

  • this is a good game.my review:

    + nice detailing of environments

    + wall running is awesome

    - fucking up the prince's looks

    - fucking up the combat system

    - a little boring story

    - some animations are unreal(like u can jump on a wall and then run up for some distance-thats bullshit.unreal!!)

    7/10

  • @AtomicCow100 yes because...messing with time was way more real than jumping on a wall and being able to run up it. :p

  • @nastyninja50187 k k i know this time thing aint real.but its a concept.that doesnt mean everything else has to become unreal. XD but in the end it doesnt even matter.

  • I think that's Yuri Lowenthal playing the Prince. he played him in Two Thrones. I don't know about Sands of Time but Warrior Within had a different actor for the Prince

  • And assassins creed is built on prince of persia platforming so the platforming you see is from neither.

  • how many hours is this game?

  • Fuck Warrior Within, it disgraced the Prince of Persia name

    Sands of Time is want started it all and no other can even be compared 

  • @Bortherhood2 fuck YOU.warrior within in the best POP ever!!! sands of time started it,but WW made it better.that game has the best combat system ever and the most rewarding.the story is compelling,the prince is dark and unforgiving.the art is surely one of the best,the atmosphere and "attractive" and dark.the music is also is SO well done.metal music the grinchy way.kaileena is lovable.at that time that game told suck a compelling story.i wanna see WW remastered and back and kicking! WW 4eva!!!

  • @RaYk1LL3r You can say many good things about warrior within, but remember metal music does NOT fit with prince of persia, the music was probably the worst thing about the game

  • @Bortherhood2 Dude I liked the Warrior Within it was quite cool.

  • @Bortherhood2

    you dont have to lie to yourself, it doesnt make you any cooler. you jaded little bastard.

  • @prototypepimpin idoit, if you like warrior within as the best. you don't know the series at all

  • @Bortherhood2 why does it disgrace the PoP name?I liked it more than every other PoP

  • @Bortherhood2 prince of persia warrior within was very revolutionary for the series though bringing it more great combat even if there isn't as much platforming it is still one of the best prince of persia games :3

  • @Bortherhood2 haha lol.fuck WW? that was the BEST pop EVER.and infact one of the best games ever.sands of time may have started it,but WW perfected it.the prince in the first game was a little sissy,but in warrior within,he was a true prince,a true MAN.even chuck norris wouldnt be able to handle that guy.and not to talk about the story and the characters.

  • @RaYk1LL3r  totally agree, best prince ever.

  • @Bortherhood2 SOT might have started it all but Warrior Within made EVERYTHING better: Platforming, Graphics and especially COMBAT. The combat in WW was awesome, where you could have combined tons of great combos together to create some really brutal attacks.

    I'm not trying to say SOT is a bad game, I'm just saying it definitely wasn't as good as WW and also keep in mind that without WW we wouldn't have any of the later games.

    All-and-all, WW (for me) is the best game in the series, no doubt.

  • Still Prince of Persia Warrior within is the best one out there.

  • the two thrones was my favorite thanks for the awesome boss battles, speed kills and the dark prince

    sands of time was amazing but it was damn annoying when Fara came in my way and i killed her by accident lol

  • The sands of time is the best

  • The best prince of persia is sands of time

  • The prince has a really big health bar!

  • its a shit game got it before

  • i never did understand the prince of persia that was released in 2008 i liked the story and all but i thought it was supposed to be a sequel to the two thrones but if it was then the prince should've been the king

  • this looks so much like a wannabe assassins creed... i know its build on the same engine but its sooooo similar

  • @Minidude110 thign is... pricne of persia wa smade BEFORE assassins creed, and it even had acrobatics there. so the first assassinscreed might ben made because the first and secodn games of pricne of persia was made.. BTW i dont play pricne of persia, only assassinscreed... but my bro plays pricne thingy... :D

  • @Minidude110 assassins creed copied the prince of persia trilogy engine and they improved so much on the AC games. This the fifth ones including POP 2008

  • @Hazam123 well if you watched this video you would know that POP copied the AC engine... i know POP came first but the later games use the AC engine... the AC games dont use the POP engine

  • @Minidude110 They are made by the same exact developer. It's not copying. Assassin's Creed's freerunning was entirely inspired and based on the Prince of Persia games, but the PoP engine was of course outdated and so they made a new one. So when new PoP games came out, they're using their own updated engine which was inspired from Prince of Persia in the first place.

  • @ZF911 ok whatever my bad....

  • WHERE IS THE FREAKING BLOCK BUTTON !?!?!

  • How long is this game?

  • @abizar7 i hope is not "Dastan"

  • Potatoesization

    he never said infinite sands he said infinite retries he was talking about the one with elika in it the 2008 prince of persia

  • @kjwcube you know... i think they named the game prince of persia just for the people to buy the game... saying that the prince is back... and i dont blame them... the game was good and it doesnt matter if it wasnt related to the others... the idea is that it could had less buyers with another title

  • If there were Dahaka chases in this game it would have been better

  • In my opinion Prince Of Persia (2008) was the best, although it didn't fit in the series

    

  • Hang on a minute

    This game takes place after the sands of time?

    Then how come at the start of the game he says "Nobody remembers my adventures except for me"?

    I know why he says that, he says it because at the end of warrior within, he wipes out the past so the first 3 games never happend

    So, if that's the case, why did he say that? I could understand if it takes place after warrior within but apparently, it dosen't

  • @ninetalescommander you really understood the story? in sands of time he had that adventure (all that fat guy's kingdom changed by the sands etc) and turnes back time so its like it never happened... in warrior within he changes his fate. and the first game actions never happened. in sands of time he killed the vizier... in the the two thrones the vizier is alive bechause the prince changed the timeline. and forgotten sands is between sands of time and warrior within. got it now?

  • @mosu95

    Its not actually for me, its for my friend, i'll read that comment to him and get back to you

  • @ninetalescommander it does take place after sands of time,the reason no one remembers is because in the sands of time game he stabs the dagger into the hourglass and everything went back in time then you go and save farah from the vizier and you tell her everything that happened and she doesn't remember.

  • ussually i hate talking in vids but not on yours! PS u rocks

  • Prince of Persia 1990 is the best POP so far

  • PoP 2008 > WW > TTT > TFS > SoT

  • -FORGETTABLE STORY I guess that is why they called the game Forgotten Sands.

  • 6 dolla on steam right now

  • I think I have upgrade bug on my save. I can't unlock my last upgrade :(

  • sands of times and 2 thrones were the bestt

  • How much of a replayability value does this game has?

    I can buy it at 8 pounds..

  • @roms3 If you got enough money, do it. if you dont feel like spending it on this game, buy another one instead, or dont buy anything at all

  • @roms3 Not much. Plus if you were a fan of WW or TT, you will be disappointed by the combat. It was too easy.

  • muito melhor que god of war 3.

  • muito melhor que god of war 3.

  • wait infinite retries in the last game??

    This one has more no. of retries!!!

  • Warrior Within all the way man

  • I really like this game.

  • This game sucks but the movie is a fakin fail!!!

  • I gotta say, I love this game.

  • Sorry but for the first time IGN review fail

  • "The last climb" was the most hardest part of the game for me.

  • @daisyvsshurandy Indeed !!

  • @daisyvsshurandy thats quite true...

  • @daisyvsshurandy that one was so frustratingly hard. sands of time is the best

  • @daisyvsshurandy YES ALL THE LAST GEN POP GAMES BETTER, THIS LOOKED GOOD SOUNDED GOOD AND CONTROLS WORK SO WELL JUST SHALLOW

  • @daisyvsshurandy

    hell yes.

  • @daisyvsshurandy Get out... get out NOW!!!

    Sands of time ftw, with Two Thrones being a close second. Warrior Within was the weakest of all the prince games.

  • @daisyvsshurandy i think two thrones in my opinion is best. according to graphics

  • @daisyvsshurandy Fuck no it's all about the original 1989 classic! My personal favorite is the 2008 Prince of Persia but I don't think anyone else agrees with me. Sands of Time used to be the best but it doesn't hold up as much anymore.
