The graphics and fighting in this game are extremly mediokre! I felt like i was playing a game frome 1984 due to the pixely graphics. As for the fighting it was nothing speacial. Just pressing a button. The storyline was fictional along with crap that wasnt even very relevant. Now, the camera is annonying in this game and needs constant attention. NOT VERY FUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Amazing Game!

Prince of Persia: Sands of Time is a great game. With stunning graphics and gameplay, this game worth the $20.00 in your pocket! The Prince starts out telling a story to you. You must play through the whole story. I'm not going to spoil anything. Anyway, I have to say, this game is ADDICTIVE. Sands of Time is not easy yet not hard. It's a game for everyone! The battle system is amazing as it takes advantage of the Prince's acrobatic skills. The only thing is, as you go farther to about 60%+ in the game, you'll find yourself dying many times to the hands of the Sands creatures. Sands of Time offers a great camera that doesn't bother you at all. I've noticed some bugs with the character models, such as a square-ish head for the Prince and Farah. Overall, Prince of Persia: Sands of Time gets a 4 out of 5 stars! Highly addictive and great for everyone!

This was the game that really got me into video games. Before, the only games I ever liked were Pokemon on the GB. However, the middle eastern theme alone enticed me and I got it. And LOVED IT!

The plot line is very good for an action game. There's actually two developed characters! The graphics on the characters don't quite hold up to today's standards, but the great Arab and Indian influenced palace in which the story takes place makes up for the mediocre figures.

Game play is good. the fighting style is pretty much just mash A, but the move combinations and special powers to make it fun. You can rewind and slow down time (which is what makes this franchise famous) and also take out every enemy in the vicinity at once. However, I never had the use the latter two on my first go around.

However, just kicking monster's butts isn't what this game is all about. There's a heavy puzzle solving element to this as well. And I don't mean like giant Tetris puzzles, but having to use every ability you possess, mental and physical to find your way out of a room.

Although I love this game, it might not be for you. If you want more action, go for the Warrior Within. However, this game is heavily linked to that game in terms of plot, so you may want to pick this one up just for comprehension purposes. A movie is also being made out of this game, so that's another reason to get it.
