A good game, but not a good Prince of Persia game.

User Rating: 8 | Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands PC
I like the POP series very much, you could say that it's my favorite series of games. I actually consider POP Warrior Within the Mona Lisa of PC games. The reason why I like POP WW so much is because of it's combat: it's great and exciting, easy and hard, it all depends on your approach. Now in the Forgotten Sands it's easy...just easy. Pardon my words, please! It's also shallow. Let me explain it to you:
In WW you could do the following to 1 enemy: jump over him slash and kick him (slash-slash, kick-kick or, if he was low on health slash/kick-steal weapon-kill), grab-choke-throw/steal weapon-kill, attack him directly, if you had a weapon throw it at him or if he's close to a wall run up that wall and then either jump and do a slash (angel drop i think it was called) or something like a hurricane (this one i don't remember). And on the part with direct attack you also have about 10 combos if i remember correctly.
Now at the FS part you can: attack him directly, power attack him or jump over him and attack him. What does this tell you? If I remember correctly Ubi promised us FREE-FORM combat not THREE-FORM combat.
The reason why this game gets an 8 is because of it's platforming, which is great, but if we take that away this installment losses all it's good points.
And in the end I'll leave you with just this: when they said FS will have combat with 50 enemies I almost pissed and craped my pants at the same time because of a simple reason: I thought it was gonna be combat similar with WW, but a little easier because of the number! Ow how foolish I was!
