A Prince of Persia Fan Returning to the Series!
For a long time as a kid i played the living heck out of my PS2 & The Prince of Persia games were a huge part of that which i haven't been able to play for a good 10 + Years
Coming back to the ps2 and playing the trilogy i also got this fun game on PS3 and it really wasn't bad at all, compared with the other POP games i really enjoyed it!
Gameplay is great (IMO) the combat is smooth although some times can be a pain if you get surrounded or try to do certain attacks
You wallrun, Jump, Swing and all the fun stuff that made the OG Trilogy so much fun and this one really isn't much different
Tough platforming which is good with these types of games, Fun combat and moves that feels great when smashing enemies with your sword, only thing i wish they kept was being able to chop enemies heads off or in half from certain killing moves.
Graphically the game looks good, obviously it's a gen up from the trilogy (not taking into account the ps3 trilogy) but here and there, there are some uneven graphics where some textures or graphics in general seem to look a bit strange or even last Gen but if you're like me and graphics aren't that important then you'll be fine and enjoy this nonetheless.
sadly though the story to this POP game is a bit forgettable to the point where writing this review i'm kinda having trouble remember what happened story wise with nothing coming to mind or getting confused with a different POP story.
Audio though is impressive, great soundtrack especially during the bosses or big fight scenes and even during some of the fast platforming sections of the game, enemies sounds are good aswell as swords clanging and more.
Overall i think they did a great job with this game, There's a few things as stated that kinda let it down but it is still a great game to play and deserves to be in with the other greats of the POP Series.
Definitely a must play with a normal playthrough looking at between 8-10 Hours with certain playthroughs or area's needed for the pretty easy platinum!
