Prince of Persia

Prince of Persia is a solid game, but it remains divisive, and for good reasons. The best thing about it may be the atmosphere: it looks gorgeous, with its unique watercolor-inspired graphics that stand apart from the gray-brown aesthetic that was in fashion in 2008. Both main characters are cool, likable, and they have an interesting relationship. The music is good. A lot of effort was clearly invested in making the adventure memorable, and I think it succeeds in that regard. The core gameplay is similar to previous entries: you go through levels by performing insane acrobatics, and get into a fight from time to time. Overall, the controls are sleek and easy to get a hold of, but quite simplistic: there is no real way to get a game over, and it often feels like the game plays itself… but it’s still very fun and finds a decent balance between approachability and depth. The platforming is definitely a high point, the camera is much better than it used to be, and the level design is great and takes an interesting “metroidvania” approach to exploration. Yet, some flaws may hinder your enjoyment: not only are PoP 2008’s mechanics very simplistic and forgiving, but most of them are introduced early on, making for a repetitive romp after that. The combat, notably, pales in comparison to previous titles and does not even come close to the savagery of Warrior Within and The Two Thrones. Plus, the game makes you hunt down hundreds of collectibles, which… is not very fun. It’s also worth noting that the epilogue DLC was never made available for this PC version, which is a shame. In short, on the one hand this is a somewhat simplistic and repetitive game which does not live up to its predecessors. On the other, PoP 2008 is fun throughout, a good experience on its own… and it feels like one of the last times Ubisoft (and big studios in general) would attempt to develop a game with such a high level of artistry. For that, I would recommend it, and I hope it has its fans...

Odpowiadając poprzednikom owszem gra była po Polsku,ale tylko w pudełku. GOG nie ma praw do PL bo Polskim wydawcą był Ubisoft i tak samo praw nie ma Steam.Co ciekawe nawet na Ubi nie ma pl.Jak chcecie po pl to można wgrać spolszczenie.

POP 2008 is not a bad game, it's fun and colourful and an overall good time, but it suffers from two main problems. One, it's title and the franchise expectations that come with it especially after the Sands of Time trilogy and two the sequel bait ending which is honestly the rougher part. Again it is an enjoyable and fun experience that just barely misses the landing, but stil recommend it.

Needs better controller support.

If you like platformers and metroidvania games with a little fighting this game is for you.
