Prince of Persia Special Edition Trilogy Computer Game

Pros: A great game with amazing graphics and music and with challenging puzzles.

Cons: None

Review: Prince of Persia 3D, the third game in the series, is an amazing game that everybody will enjoy. ...

Pros: Good graphics, entertaining

Cons: Not so much action, need a lot of imagination

Review: I played the original Prince of Persia many years ago and I loved it. So when I saw the new 3D version in the stores, I couldn't resist and bought me copy, although others didn't think too much of it. Now after I finished the game, I tend to agree with...

Pros: Puzzle difficulty, graphics, combat

Cons: Puzzle difficulty, keyboard control

Review: Like the title says, this game is incredibly fun, yet incredibly frustrating. This is a game where you find yourself saying "I am stuck!" more often than not. When you do get past the puzzle, you both feel like you were stupid not to see it,...

Pros: Graphics are an excellent next-gen move, puzzles are still evident, weapon selection is pleasing

Cons: Load time, controls, controls, controls!!!

The Bottom Line: If you want quick moves and fast-paced million enemies vs. you action, pick up a Quake or Unreal. If you're all about the puzzles, you've found your game.

Review: I should start by saying that I had every bias and high expectation when I unpacked this baby. I couldn't wait to rejoin my pal the Prince as he ran, jumped, hacked, and slashed his way out of every situation. Wow was I naive.

Before I get...

Pros: Excellent Music. Impressive Graphics and Full Motion Video. Good story.

Cons: Bugs. Awful control system. Arthritic Prince. Shoddy camera.

The Bottom Line: The game is bugged to blazes. If you buy it make sure you have patches next to your essentials. Graphics/Sound are good but Control/Camera are rubbish. Decisions, decisions.

Review: Being such a nostalgic fan of the original Prince of Persia, I was decidedly eager to get my hands on the latest 3D treatment of the old classic.
Upon completion of the game I must admit my feelings are a little confused. This is probably down to...

Pros: I guess it looks nice...

Cons: Uninspired, irritating gameplay

Review: If I knew them what I knew now...!

Let's start at the beginning. Back in the 80's I played a little gem on my Mac called Prince of Persia. It was quite a title for it's day, sporting cutting edge graphics, and enthralling gameplay.

...

Pros: Great graphics and cinematics.

Cons: Poor game playing quality in field of ease.

Review: This game is one of the hardest I have ever played, it was so hard I never even beat the first level. There were hints in the readme but man o man was it frustrating. I was lost so many times since the game is gigantic, it is game like Myst but one where...

Pros: Updated from the original

Cons: Boring

Review: I have played the original Prince of Persia game and was shocked to find they came out with a new 3D Version. The first was very boring with poor graphics which ran out of DOS only. I thought I would give the newby a try since often games get much...

Pros: Continuation of great original premise

Cons: Too slow and confusing

Review: "Prince of Persia 3D" is yet another example of sophisticated graphics substituting for content. The 3D graphics, while technically advanced, are often confusing, and often run very slowly. "Prince of Persia 2", released in 1993,...

Pros: Nice Graphics, Challenging

Cons: Very Buggy, Poor Controls

Review: Prince of Persia 3D easily could have been a terrific sequel to the popular series. The game has a Tomb Raider-ish look and feel and is sufficiently challenging. However, the game is so filled with bugs that all the joy of playing the game is lost. I...
