Neat game, but beware packaging

The game is fun, and I didn't mind it being dated. But beware: they pack the CD partially exposed on the OUTSIDE of the box (look closely at the picture--that's the REAL CD on the front of the box!), so it's easily damaged. Save that receipt!

Two older games, but they're classics!

This package includes two classic games for the price of one. These games were the beginning of the gaming industry the way we know it. The first game was created almost solely by Jordan Mechner in 1989 (release date). In my opinion the level design for the first still hasn't been matched by any product sold to this day. Sure the sword-fighing could be better, but the story-line and the level-design admirably makes up for it. I've played this game at least a few thousand times! It is incredible! Jordan Mechner is a genius! The second game improves greatly on both the graphics and the sword-fighting. The sword-fighting is VERY immpressive. The graphics are GREAT compared to the original. Still the original has something which still puts it on top. The level design in this one slacks in certain points, but over-all the levels are well designed. Though not matching the original in level-design it makes up for it in other qualities. Inluding improved opponent AI, more traps, different environments amoung many other things. I was a little disapointed in the game's lack of spike traps (I'm a spike trap nut). The preview for the third in the series (Prince of Persia 3D) will excite all who see it. In all the game is well worth the money. This is a must buy for both extreme gamers and casual ones. If you haven't played many games and you're thinking of buying one, I GUARANTEE this it by far the BEST choice to make!

Brings back the good ol' days

Prince of Persia Collection brings back memories from playing it on my old Amiga computer 11 years ago. It is a great game, although the sound is too dated. Overall, it is as much fun as I remember.

Two great games of the past

Both Prince of Persia 1 and 2 are excellent games. I have yet to play Prince of Persia 3D, but if it is anywhere near as good as 1 and 2, then I can't wait. The graphics of both of these games were very good for their time. I can still remember playing the original Prince of Persia back around 1990 when it first came out. I loved it then and I still love it now. It is one game that has truely stood the test of time.

Poor poor graphics and sound

This game was probably great 3-4 years ago but is now totally outdated. I would recommend this game for those with real old computers since the needed requirements are so low. (It is mildly entertaining though so it might be worth your money though it depends on the type of person you are) I personally hated it since I had played so many better games.

I personally feel that Prince of Persia Collection is a challenging game, because it trains the mind when you solves the mind-twisting puzzles throughout the levels.Overall,it's a game worth playing.

Greatest Game EVER

Being a 17 year-old teenager, I have played A LOT of games throughout my life. I started playing Prince of Persia 1 on a Macintosh back in the day. It was by far the greatest game I had ever played. That was 10 years ago. Since then, we have seen Sega Genesis, Super Nintendo, Game Boy, N 64, Sega Dreamcast, Playstation 1 and 2, and hundreds of thousands of PC games come into the market. These newer games are high in resolution and have great graphics. However, the original Prince of Persia is still, by far, the greatest game money can buy. If this collection was selling for over [more money], I would still recommend it to gamers everywhere. If you have bought this collection, let me assure you that you are going to be VERY happy.

An addicting game...

This game is awesome despite its age. It is so mysterious and there are so many levels and intricute things that it is a game that never gets boring. Both 1 & 2 are awesome although I like the first best.

Nothing comes close to the original
