Prince of Persia (PS3) Reviews

Prince of Persia is Ubisoft's latest installment of the highly successful Franchise. This new game makes a clean break from the previous trilogy that attempts to get back to basics with a new story and a new prince and a huge differance in gameplay. The games basic plot begins with our prince running into Elika who is seemingly on the ...  Read the complete review

The Prince is back! But he's not the same man. The original trilogy has ended, and the persian royalty has changed faces, but is the new Prince as good as the old one? This game sees us controlling the Prince once again; early in the game the Prince will meet Elika, his partner for the remainder of this episode. She has magical powers ...  Read the complete review

After playing the original Prince of Persia, I was excited to be getting this. And at only £23 thought it was a bargain! When you begin playing, the first thing that hits you is the visual style of the game, making it look like everything in the game world has been drawn by an artist right there, with a rough look but also beautiful. ...  Read the complete review

First of all, this game looks great. The 'cartoon' style graphics might not be to everyones taste, but I found them refreshing and very sharp, and the colours are bright and vibrant, which makes the characters and environments very pleasing to the eye. Next, the sound effects are also great. From the sound of gravel under foot to ...  Read the complete review

This game is probably one the most disappointing games I have bought for my ps3 thus far. You take on a new story, character and world in this Prince of Persia installment and the gameplay has changed a lot. The game is free-roaming and you spend most your time climbing around to achieve goals by getting to some boss battles. The ...  Read the complete review

From the creators of Assassins Creed, the latest Prince of Persia is like a complete franchise restart, as you can tell from the name, introducing a new world, new story and a new Prince. Occasionally it seems like Ubisoft completely forgot the series already existed as so little from the originals is noticeable in this one. The time reversal ...  Read the complete review

What a fantastic game. Possibly one of the most beautiful games released on Playstation 3 so far. Its shaded cell style is seemingly unique on this console and is simply stunning. Wonderfully designed world and levels enable some great views. Gameplay wise, very simple to pick up and get to grips with. Having never played any previous ...  Read the complete review

This was the first Prince Of Persia game, save the 1990-ish original, that I've played to completion. I dabbled with the PS2 version, which I enjoyed, but I got distracted by other things and never managed to finish it. With this new entry to the series, I really didn't know what to think. The graphics are great, the game mechanics are ...  Read the complete review

People may remember the original Prince of Persia ("POP") games as intriguing Platform/Puzzle games that came out around 20 years ago. Then came along Prince of Persia 'The sands of time' and its sequels which injected a heavy dose of action and combat which brought aging POP into the 21st Century and gave the PS2 some of its best ever ...  Read the complete review

I really can't see what people like about this game. Graphically it's pretty. The stylised cell shaded characters are nicely drawn and animated and the back-drops never fail to impress. If you saw nothing but stills from the game you'd probably be quite looking forward to playing on it. But that's where things take a turn for the ...  Read the complete review

Prince of Persia takes the better elements of their previous game Assassins Creed and builds upon them to some degree. The free running aspect is always fun to use and they have taken away the repetitiveness. The level designs are cleverly constructed to allow the character to travel in any direction but there is usually only one roue ...  Read the complete review

Prince of Persia in its various releases, always struck me as a pretty game, with awkward controls and not much depth. This latest PS3 version took my fancy, mainly due to boredom. The £24.99 price helped, but I am sure with a bit of searching you could pick it up a little cheaper now. The game is rated 12+, it is only a single player ...  Read the complete review

Prince of Persia (PS3) The new Prince of Persia - as you may have noticed this title's been hyped over the last few months but is it up to the praise and bestselling status it's been enjoying? Adding onto one of the most iconic, memorable games ever made, Ubisoft have a sensitive fan base to appease. I'm one of those fans, so how do I ...  Read the complete review

Having seen this game at a good price in Argos I decided to pick up a copy having never played a PoP game before and being wooed by the trailer I saw on TV. The game follows the said Prince as he journeys through the desert looking for his faithful donkey which he has lost. After a slight accident he stumbles across a woman being ...  Read the complete review
