More Than a Movie Tie-In

I think that this title warrants reviewing, as many in my friend group are torn about whether or not it merits a playthrough. These opinions range from “I’ll give it a shot if I have time” to “I’ll be… Read more

PoP: Forgotten Sands

I just recently finished the game so I had plenty of time to see reviews of the game before I actually got my hands on it. Most of the reviews I read weren't too high on the game so my expectations we… Read more

Best I've played

This Prince of Persia game was so much better than I had expected. My first experience with a Prince of Persia game was the 2008 game. I saw the Prince of Persia movie and this reminded me of it based… Read more

Quality Platforming Can't Save This Otherwise Lackluster Game

Forgotten Game

After playing "Forgotten Sands" for a number of hours, I was left without any real enthousiasm for this game. The acrobatics are decent but the game's story is simply forgettable and dull. It seems ev… Read more

The authors of this game should be beaten up with a rusty pipe

The authors of Prince of Persia:The Forgotten Sands should be beaten up with a rusty pipe. Why? Because the PoP:TFS is an insult to the usually pretty good Prince of Persia series! We (the gaming popu… Read more
