Not a veteran of the series but still like it.

User Rating: 8.9 | Prince of Persia: The Two Thrones XBOX
This is actually the first Prince of Persia game I have played - so it took me awhile to get used to the controls. There are lots of combos and different attacks. But once I got used to everything I loved it. The wall run is the best - if you are running away from somebody towards a wall you can run up it, flip around behind the guy and slice away. The only parts of the game I do not like are the carriage races - way to sensitive.
Being the dark prince is fun but you have a time limit on your health so you feel rushed. But on the bright side you really don't have to worry about other enemies killing you since your health goes up when you kill them.
Overall - since I am new to the series it took awhile to get used to, but now that I am it is a pretty sweet game.
