Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands

I am not sure how many of you guys have played this game, or even like the series at that matter, but I thought that I would let my boyfriend post his review on this game, as I am not really all that into the series myself.

My thoughts on this game. well first i have to say i started off going into the game wanting to like it. i have played the prince of Persia games and loved them all excluding the last one that was released. i have to say they did a better job when it comes to graphics the graphics for this game are finally HD quality but compared to some other new releases its pretty much average. the artwork in this game is still phenomenal. the thing that bugs me the most about it is the way they changed the princes character. the thing i always liked was the way they portrayed the prince. he was a badass character with a little edge to him, but in this game they give him much more random lines during game play and they try to make him funny, but the thing i always liked was the quiet mysteriousness of the prince. the combat also seems to be slower in this game, the way he wields the sword is like he has a hundred pound weight on his arm which is a little annoying when there is 50 enemies on screen attacking you.
one of the most important things about prince of Persia is parkour aspects in which you use the princes agility to quickly jump, climb and run on walls, but they also seemed to have tweaked the controls for that in a bad way. the way they place the camera angles makes it tricky, and it seems like sometimes the direction of the princes movement depends on the angle of the camera and other times it depend and the actual way the prince is facing. its a little hard to explain but if you played it you know what i mean. the same thing goes for the puzzles also when you are trying to turn a lever a certain way sometimes it will go the completely opposite direction which is frustrating when your spending a lot of time in one area just trying to get past a simple obstacle. well like i said i wanted to love this game but it seems some changes they have made was for the worst. personally i think this game is below average. especially for being a PoP game =/ just my opinion

Happy Gaming
