The Prince of Persia series has been going strong for over two decades now, and in that time it has - obviously - evolved a great deal. How has it changed? How has the central protagonist - always known as the Prince, but not always the same character - evolved?
Edgar writes: "Back in the early 2000s, Prince of Persia was the franchise to beat. Parkour-like traversal, intricate puzzles and intense combat: what's not to like? Earning flattering review scores and numerous awards, The Sands of Time established itself as the prime action-adventure game. But how does one follow up something so flawless? Two words: Warrior Within."
This game was really hard! It took me over a year to beat and one of my friends just couldn't do it. I wish I'd known at the time about getting all the collectables in order to kill the Dahaka.
That game was pretty unique, the Dahaka is one of the best bosses in video games ever, the battle mechanics really felt like aerobics.
Bluepoint's recent remakes have been excellent, but which games do we want to be remade next, without being unrealistic.
1. Syphon Filter, 2. Silent Hill, 3. Prince of Persia, 4. Psychonauts, 5. Demon's Souls
I'd be onboard with a proper Syphon Filter and Silent Hill remake by Bluepoint. Seems they can be trusted to stay true to the originals in their work.
I have to cast my vote for the original Deus Ex however. Being that SquareEnix still owns the property though? I'll just give up any hope of that of course.
Utomik is excited to announce that several legendary Ubisoft games are coming to Utomik service, and that includes a handful of "Prince of Persia" titles such as "Prince of Persia: Warrior Within" and "Prince of Persia: The Two Thrones".
