Being a prince of persia fan since the first dos version, i bought this game without a second thought. 5 minutes into the game i realized it is the WORST PSP GAME so far. Instead of making a game for the psp, they only chopped "Prince of Persia: Warrior within" (part 2) and placed it in a UMD. During the game your sound (SPECIALLY MUSIC) will constantly go off for several seconds at a time. Loading sucks too, a good deal 15-20 seconds for the middle levels. They should've gone with "Sands of time" as the first psp release but what the hey.
Good news is that gameplay is pretty much same if not better. Camera control is pretty decent, you can fix it however you want and it really helps when you are outnumbered. Other then that "IT IS WARRIOR WITHIN" so unless you have not played it on the xbox, ps2 or pc before OR you really like prince of persia series like me, I would not recommend that you buy this. Get it on some other console.

Need more like this one

As I read the other reviews in this list I realize that all types are out there. I really enjoyed this game because it was difficult, single player to the end, and just an overall great experiece. I did like a little less when I first started... but that was before I became addicted. :)

THIS IS THE SAME OF WARRIOR WITHIN

This game has good and bad parts. It is fun and can last a few weeks of fun. But it is EXREMELY hard. It is confusing and the camara SUCKS!!!!! It is better to get Grand Theft Auto for almost the same price but better fun

unfortunate, to say the least

Prince of Persia - Revelations

Ubisoft has taken Prince of Persia The Warrior Within and reduced it for the PSP. When it was released (in late 2005), it was one of the better games for the console, since all other games were terrible anyway. Now things are different, but this review should not compare this game to recent classics.

The graphical transition from higher end consoles & PC to the PSP is superbly done. You get to see all kinds of things the prince can do - and slow motion beheading adds another dimension to graphical quality.

You will be completely disappointed with the sound and controls. The soundtrack is not bad, whenever it is playing, which isn't often. Whenever the in-game loading screens arrive, the sound get brutally cut out. The sound is not synced to action, since voices and effects are delayed or too early.

Controls are also posing a serious problem, since the programmers were a little too ambitious with the kind of moves the prince can do. Actually, that seems to be a plus as well, since there are at least forty kinds of unique attack moves he can do, plus acrobatics. These moves are all nearly controlled by the triangle, square and circle. This makes the game one of button mashing. Worst of all, the camera seems to always be out of the line of action, and you have to manually change that.

The game is nonetheless fun, if not hard at times. You really feel the movement of the prince and his ruthless war against the monsters and other opponents. You seem to die unnecessarily, and, if you are unfamiliar with previous Prince of Persia games from the recent years, you will find this a nuisance. The prince will sometimes jump off a cliff or ledge, or drop down to his death after running for a quarter minute diagonally on a wall. At least this sour point adds unneeded "replay" value and lengthens the missions (sarcasm).

The worst offense maybe that since it isn't such a great game in the first place, aside from looks, the load times are horrid. I anyway suggest you rent POP Revelations, and check it out for yourself. It's a personal preference, and if you like the series, this one may be for you.

GRAPHICS: 8/10 (And you are punished for it in the load times)

SOUND: 2/10 (Sound cuts out often, off sync, weird noises, stops when loading)

CONTROLS: 4/10 (Camera is at odd angles often, cannot make jumps or leaps without dying constantly, repetitive nature of r-pad, which dictates too much)

DIFFICULTY: 7/10 (Why is it hard? You die often for stupid control reasons.)

LOAD TIMES: BEYOND ABYSMAL (Worst load times in the history of PSP games; you might spend five or six minutes to get into the game, over three load screens)

OVERALL: 5/10 (Unfortunately plagued with control, sound and loading issues)

Same old game, even worse in the PSP version

The Product Description first off is totally mis-leading, actually it's completely wrong. I though I was buying a new Prince of Persia game. It's the same exact game as Warrior Within for PS2, except they added in a few puzzles and areas, THANKS FOR THE TOTAL WASTE OF MONEY!!! Also the camera angles in this game are horrendous and you can't move the camera to a desired angle all the time. Which of course makes avoiding certain traps, figuring out puzzles, fighting etc. extremly difficult. I would not recommend buying this game at all. Not to mention the extremly long loading screen, and the pause to load more of the game in the middle of jumping, avoiding traps etc.

Could this game have any more bugs?

This game would be great if it weren't for the flaws. The game crashes all the time, loads right during the middle of a jump or when you're going across traps, and often times the prince gets stuck in or around a wall. One time I even kept falling through the floor when I'd get to a certain point. After about four or five times falling through, the floor was fine. Wow, what an amazing piece of programming! Also, why do they even bother coding the characters with lip movements during their dialogs? The speech is way off the audio.

The puzzles can be fun, and the freestyle combat is fun (although it gets to be monotonous when you find out the tricks). The gameplay certainly lasts a long time, especially when it freezes all the time, and you have to go back and redo everything you got through.

Prince did it again

I've been palyin' Prince's differnt game now for years and Revelations was the best one so far. Sands of Time and The Warrior Within were also good but in this it is outta the limits. Specially considering it's a mobile game it has fasinating graphics and the atmosphere seems greater in every different chapter. Specially "The Helping Hand" was absolutely amazing. I can recommend you easily to buy one.
