THE GOOD:
~kind of original
~Great graphics
~Neat sand system

THE BAD:
~Can't choose levels
~Replay value

SUMMARY:
Once you first start this game you will be amazed at the graphics in the cut scenes, they have really brought the game to life. The game is set in Persia when it was a thriving place full of action, the perfect place to put an action game.

Though this game doesn't deliver a lot of action, the action it does deliver you will be quite pleased with, it is quite intense and you will need to focus. Well the game play is based around you jumping to the next area basically, though it is quite difficult, there are many challenges that await you, even booby traps and they'll get you if you are not concentrating, you really need to concentrate in this game to make it.

The music and sounds are excellent, as say you are walking down a corridor with your character yelling out because he took a swing at his sword, it...

THE GOOD:
~This games Graphics is awesome and it does the Xbox justice when you compare it to other consoles.
~The sound systems is unbelievable because it has this tune that makes you remember Alladin and the Magic Lamp (Walt Disney).
~The ability to destroy the things in the environment is just too cool even with the exception of gaining anything from what is destroyed.
~The Ability to reverse time, stop time and walk on walls. That just makes the game a must buy. I mean, check out the Cottons as you walk past it when you walk on walls.
~Puzzles and stunts to perform

~COOL

THE BAD:
~BAD, U ASK ME WHAT IS BAD, well, i will tell you what this game is missing, as in everygame, there are always limitations. They seem to have forgotten the flying carpet. If there was a flying carpet, it will make it more, you know... Adventurous.. but its just SAND, Every thing is just SANDS OF TIME.

~Another problem is that the narrator after some...

THE GOOD:
- Unbelievable graphics and gameplay
- Time manipulation is awesome
- Battles are incredible

THE BAD:
- Fairly short
- Can sometimes become repetitive and frustrating... but only for brief times

SUMMARY:
Wow, I was totally blown away and impressed with this game - Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time is truly a great game. Not only do you have the ability to manipulate time, but you will get to perform tons of mind bending stunts as you explore a massive Arabic palace. The battle system is truly one of the best I've ever seen - the fight scenes are so well choreographed to the point where it feels like it is a movie. Filled to the brim with mind bending stunts and mind breaking puzzles, I highly recommend Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time. This game has it all.

THE GOOD:
The graphics. The environments. The story. The controls.

THE BAD:
Hardly anything... besides not having downloadable content on Xbox live.

SUMMARY:
I'm just going to get to the point: This game is awesome. It is easily one of the best platformers around... on any system. The story is awesome. The graphics are awesome. The ability to rewind time is awesome. I mean hell, this game takes what's good and puts it in one package. The combat system is put together very solid, and falls into place nicely. It can get difficult at times, but a good, challenging game is hard to find nowadays. No multiplayer? Meh, I really can't see this game with it. Downloadable content would've been nice, though. If you're into action games, don't overlook this title. If you like platformers, get this title.

THE GOOD:
Cool moves, graphics, and how the music fit the mood of the game almost made it perfect.

THE BAD:
The camera was somestimes a problem during combat but, mainly the game was too short. + POP1 sucked

SUMMARY:
From the beginning you're pulled into a story by the Prince leading you through his adventure. Detailed graphics backgrounds gives a sense of being there when you use 1st person view. The combat in the game is get to be a bit repetitive and being overwhelmed sometimes but flowing movement and use of the dagger ability to rewind time and slow it down helps you several times. The game is more like a maze or obstacle course in which you have it climb, jump, and dodge your way through, in which are several save points through out the whole. And finally, you have your unlockables POP1 and 2 which POP1 is unlocked when you complete the game within a certain amount of time.

THE GOOD:
Watching the Prince move around is pure joy. The control is amazing in this game. You'll maneuver the Prince with ease as you climb, jump and swing your way through this game. The frame rate is smooth and collision detection is perfect!

THE BAD:
The only problem is that there are certain times where you need to adjust the camera. Fixing it to see where you need to jump next is no big deal, but sometimes it will hop behind an object when you're in the middle of battling five or six enemies at once, making it impossible to see where you are.

SUMMARY:
This game is pure fun from beginning to end and it's almost impossible to put down. The jumping puzzles are just challenging enough to be fun and not frustrating. And if you thought the fight scenes in the Matrix were cool, wait till you play this one. The Prince is one capable warrior and controlling him during the fights quickly becomes second nature. Enemy battles are long and...
