The Prince of Persia franchise has been in a slump for the last few years since Prince of Persia 3D on the PC. Can Ubisoft revive this franchise? Can they bring it back to its platforming roots of the action franchise? The answer is yes and yes. This game reintroduces a new price who must undo he fatal flaw of opening the sands of time. Thie game introduces a "do over" or rewind into the mix which allows the prince to travel back into time, about 10 sec. into the past., with a magical dagger known as the "dagger of time". This will not be the only ability of the dagger for the dagger can also slow-down time, frezze time for is foe, and even fast-foward to destroy a whole entire legeon of enemies. The prince isn't alone for this journay though he is also accompined by a devous princess known as Farah who will help defeat the evil Vizer, the one who lead him to open the sands of time. The game's platforming astonisthing to see and the prince is also a great acrobatic in and out of combat. The music fits the town of the game, but the music can get on some people's nerve with the orchestrial mixed with an persian beat that sets the town but does really get on your nerves. The graphics are very well done for a multy-platform game and can relly show on the xbox.
