Game Devotion writes: "It would be easy for me to just cut this review short, thus restricting it to just one mere line, and give the game a perfect rating then calling it a day. I’m not going to do that, though. Yes, I do consider Prince of Persia: Sands of Time, the first in a trilogy, to be a masterful experience worthy of the highest accolades, but I’m not reviewing the original game. I’m reviewing the HD version that has just hit the PSN (with its sequels: ‘Warrior Within’ and ‘Two Thrones’ to hit next). Is this still the same classic game it was before? Find out below."
Ubisoft says they are focusing on two "core verticals," and that's to return as a leader in the open world genre, and live service games.
Calling Ubisoft a leader in open world gaming at any point in time would be like calling Dollar General a leader in retail.
Well, to be fair, they did pump out good open world games before. It was used as a template so much that people now know what it means when you say it's like an Ubi open world collectahon.
What though? I can't think of one game they had where I liked anything about it. Atleast since the ps3/360 Gen
If they have never been the leader in open world gaming, then explain me this: why does almost every open world game follow the same tired old Ubisoft open world formula?
Follow the Leader.
I don't think they were ever the leader tbh. I've never really cared for any of their open world games. I do wanna try watch dogs 2 because it looks like it's set in San Fran. Looked interesting
Hanzala from eXputer: "With Ubisoft's practices becoming increasingly anti-consumer lately, the destruction of The Sands of Time Remake looks almost inevitable."
Hey Ubi, here's a gun, don't shoot yourself in the foot.
*Ubi takes gun, aims at foot, empties clip*
Top executives including games boss Sean Shoptaw have also been promoted…
I bought the game yesterday on PSN and I am amazed by how bad the voice acting is in this game it totally ruined it for me
this game is a classic, bought day one and can't wait for the other two to hit psn.
Bought it day 1, got the platinum last night. I love playing these updated classics! They did a great job remastering this awesome game. Well worth $15. I never experienced the frame rate issues mentioned in the article, or at least didn't notice them.
My only complaints: the audio level of Farrah's voice is much lower than Prince. So at times it was difficult to hear what she says. Also, cut-scenes are not HD but that's to be expected.
Wow it got a better score then GT5!
