The best 3D platformer of all time

User Rating: 9.5 | Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time PS2
Prince of Persia on the Sega Genesis was the most demanding game of its time, needing extreme precision and speed as you race against the clock. Prince of Persia on PlayStation 2 really captures the spirit of the old classic and re-invents it beautifully.

Visually this game is absolutely immense, the sense of scale in the environments is a joy to behold and the character models are beautifully designed. In terms of gameplay no game will ever have a better control system and every one of the Prince's abilities looks and feels cool. Interspersed with puzzles invented by geniuses and a clever but simple combat system and this becomes the best 3D platformer of all time. Add in the time control aspect and you have one of the best games of all time. Truely legendary, like the Prince himself.

I highly reccommend this to fans of the original games and to platforming fans everywhere. Choose this one over the inferior, combat heavy and frustrating sequels every time.
