Prince of Persia for the snes...Could this be good???

The answer to that is surprisingly: YES. I've always been a fan of the original pc game, but when I started playing the snes version, I became a huger fan.The first thing that cought my eye when I started playing was the graphics. "This is Konami at it's best", I thought to myself. And the sound as well was very Konami(it has always been good), but the gameplay remained the same from the original(thank god).
Another thing I discovered was the new level design. When I got to the place were you get the sword in the original, something was not right. Normally you jump over spikes and pick up the sword, but here I had to climb down into a cavern to get the sword at the far end. This might sound dull, but this twist was very nice. Come to think of it, if the game had been just the same as the original but better graphics, it would have been dull.
The game(as I discovered)had been made longer and better. More levels, more time. The original had 12 levels but the snes version has 20. Almost twice as long. If you've played the new generasion games sands of time and the others, you should definently try out this game. It's highly addictive and it's got a high value. And once you've played it, you will pick it up again.
