Prince Of Persia: Warrior Within - Still the best action adventure game...

Man i forgot how awesome of a action adventure game this game was. i just got the POP WW HD remake on PSN and i honestly dont see any AA games this gen that is on this level of gaming. the depth, the difficulty, everything about this game was amazing. the platforming and puzzles are some of the best ever. 20+ hours of gameplay...

The new prince of persia game that came out this gen is an embarrassment to the REAL ones from last gen. i recommend everyone to go on PSN and get the POP trilogy HD remakes. its well worth it.

who els misses the POP games of old?

SoT is the best PoP game IMO and one of my fav games ever...they tried to go all mature with Warrior

It was the game that made me love action adventure games but I think it's been topped a number of times. Still, the best Prince of Persia game IMO.

I loved it. I thought Sands of Time was awesome, but when I first started playing the sequel, I was blown away :D It's a shame really... I liked the darker prince more than the one from SoT and TTT

I can get the PoP Collection with all three games for €25....but I'm still on the fence...
Namely because I've finishes WW a 5 times by now...even got the secret ending. Same goes for SoT...I have played TT only once or twice, lame story.

Haven't played it but I don't like that mature like look it has. From what I seen they seem ruin the Prince IMO.

Terrible game. Combat was somehow actually worse (a leveling system, or some incentive to fight the monsters should have been given. So boring) and the game looked awful. The artistic, aesthetic design, whatever you want to call it, just left a bad taste in my mouth. To say nothing of the ear-bleeding "music".

I trudged through it as long as I could before going on Youtube and seeing if there was anything remotely interesting I missed. There wasn't.

I'll admit though, the Dahaka chase scenes were nice. I liked those, for what that's worth.

I bought it after finishing the excellent Sands of Time, played it for 3-4 hours, then returned it the next day. Warrior Within is one of the worst sequels I've ever had the misfortune to play. Fun fact: did anyone know that Jordan Mechner, PoP creator, returned for Sands of Time? He had nothing to do with WW or TT. Just saying...tarzanell

I've not liked any Prince of Persia game to ever come out.

Massive nay. It wasn't even the best Prince of Persia game. Sands of Time obliterated it 6 ways to sunday. jg4xchamp

i don't know about best action adventure but definitely my favorite in the sands of time trilogy.

Even if angsty prince tried his hardest to ruin it.

Prince of persia 2008 is the best POP. It's also very pretty :)

It's ok but SOT, TT's and even POP 2008 are better.

game was terrible compared to Sands of Time on the Xbox.

Prince of persia 2008 is the easiest POP.

That's true. But I stand by my original statement :)

IMO: WW > TT > SoT. I must say I'm suprised that so many seems to prefer SoT. I guess it's because of art direction and that it's more accessible? I don't see how u can argue that gameplay is in any way better (or people actually like to scoop up sand from their fallen enmies :shock:?). It's a fantastic trilogy, but I have only played it on PC with kb+m and that's not my prefered control for this genre. I guess I have to replay them on ps3 to decide if it's the best AA of all times 8)!

not the best but up there with the best of them. I didn't play two thrones yet but WW destroys sand of time, the 2008 one and the one that came last year. mature theme ftw

The problem I found with Warrior Within is that it is like many modern Action Adventures. They are way more action than adventure and IMO it should be the other way around. Uncharted is basically a shooter the same with Resident Evil. GOW is basically a BEMUP just as Warrior Within. But the PRO I found was that it was less level focused, kinda tried an open world, which is a plus in the genre.

Probably this or TT was the best in the trilogy. SoT kinda had the same problem sometimes focusing too much on platforming and including a lackluster combat. PoP 2008 almot did it right with the world and combat but ruined it with the platforming aspect. Also more types and quantity of adventure type puzzles would help in all of them.

I loved that game. It was one of the first I played on Xbox.

Great game playing it for the 6nd time right now definitely go buy PS3 version

don't buy PC version its terrible port :(

The only bad thing that I remember of the PC versions is the almost default for console to PC ports, crappy avi cutscenes. Everything else was the same plus the usual PC extras like rez, AA, AF options.

▲ I remember that game. I also remember how glitchy it was. Walking down stairs killed you. I also remember how it took everything that was good about the Pop: sot, and got rid of it. ▲

Zelda comes under action adventure doesn't it? I prefer AC anyway, but have only played about an hour of WW (was impressed though). I was thinking about buying the collection for the PS3 but heard there are problems, glitches & bugs, some that ruin your save etc. Is this much of a problem?

I prefer Sands of Time. The Prince in WW is kinda a loser with terrible voice acting

I actually enjoyed WW a lot because how dark it was and how the game was pretty long (albeit with many backtracking like Metroid).:) I liked the whole past and present component of the game and enjoyed how the combat had become more deep (even though you could runaway from your ennemies pretty easily =/). However, despite being a fan of the trilogy and how I liked this game a lot, it had many glaring flaws... Mainly glitches and some design concepts that I thought were stupid:?

The game was a bit more harder and darker but I still enjoyed it. The lenght and shift of direction from Sands of Time was surprising but hell, I liked it.:P The only game in the trilogy I was disappointed with was Two Thrones but hell, that usually happens with trilogies and I still thought it was a quality title.:P

Best version of the game on consoles was ironically the GC version (the one I had:P). The Xbox version I believe had sound glitches while the PS2 version had visual issues. It was a rather buggy game at times but it's a big one.:P

Also I don't think it's worth shelling out $15 for it in HD for the PS3, hell the trophies aren't even worth it. Get the PC version since I'm sure almost anyone can run that thing by now otherwise, if you have a BC PS3 (or still have your last gen consoles), get it for like $5 or something lol.:P

Ummm what? The PC version of Warrior Within was awesome. Two Thrones and sands of time were much much worse.

WW is my favorite in the series. I liked the serious nature of the story. I also loved the improved combat, platforming with the excellent paced Dahaka chases and the music. Godsmack has only 2 songs - "I Stand Alone" which is played only during the Dahaka chases and "Straight Out Of Line" during the credits. I really don't know why they get the hate for the music when only 2 songs of theirs are there in the game.

Two Thrones was IMO, the worst in the series. What a way to kill a trilogy :?

I remember WW had a 9.4 score on GS. They later docked the points to 8.8 :\

Uh, no.. Sands of Time is 100x better.C-Lee

Haven't played it but I don't like that mature like look it has. From what I seen they seem ruin the Prince IMO.

I did not consider the Prince in SoT to be a likable character either. The transition from SoT to WW was unearned, but it managed to tell a more interesting story and became a far better paced game in the end.
