Prince of Persia get any better?

I just got the new prince of persia and i dont see why its been rated so high....its a 7.5 game at best. I didnt read any reviews for it because i borrowed it from a friend and when games are free theres no point to reading a review and i played for like 3 hours. The game was horribly boring made even wrost by all the things they added into it that would really work in other games.

The one fight at a time thing is really kool except for that so far the fights have been so easy plus the combat feels like one big quick time event where im not really doing anything except pressing a button and watching what happens.

The way the game saves you from death all the time is a little kool too but not for this game. When a game is already this easy there should be a pretty steep penalty for dying. If the game was like the Sands of time games where there was loads of hard enviermental puzzeles then having the no death policy would be really kool.

I really like being able to press the button to make them talk and collect the little light seeds or whatever they are called. The fights look really kool but arent much fun to play.

Well i say all of that so you know what i like and dislike about the game so far and you can tell me if i should keep playing the game expecting it to get better? The story is just meh so far but i really like the prince and the girl? Does the story and the devlopment of those two make the game better later on?

I think the art direction in the new game of PoP is the best one yet, but i agree the game is a 7.5.

Sands of time is my favourite.

POP:

Likes:
Art direction
Prince and Elika's back and forth dialog
Solid Platforming

Dislikes:
Combat system (i.e enemies who always step back and you can't jump at them)
Repetitive game play (unlock area climb a lot and fight boss, and repeat)
Lack of penalty for making mistakes

Overall, I had a great time with the game for a few hours, but I see no reason to go back and keep playing the same thing over and over again. If you like it great, but for me I need some more variety in a game.

From what I hear, the ending of new PoP game is not included with the game but will come in DLC.

To me, that alone says PoP deserves 0.0 grade. It's incomplete. In school, if I handed in incomplete essay, I would've gotten a big fat F. My teachers wouldn't hear the excuse, "I'll give you the conclusion tomorrow". Game developers shouldn't get an easy ride.

Prince of Persia used to be a 2D classic but since the new technology of games came out, Prince of Persia just

is'nt keeping up with the other games. The new Price of Persia came out but that does'nt stick out that well in

my opinion. To be honest Price of Percia is more or less finished for good now, it was up to fashion in the Gameboy

but now its just getting worse due to all the other great games coming out now. If they made a console just for 2d

games the Prince of Persia series would be fine but it does'nt fit in on the PS3 and other new consoles. It's actualy

a shame cause the old classics used to be good and fun but now... Prince of Persia is just getting worse. For the

future, prince of Persia does'nt look like making a comeback. It's a shame but is the truth for Prince of Persia.

I think it really all comes down to what you are looking for in a game. To stick with the aforementioned Mirror's Edge vs the new POP.

Since they are both platformers they are an easy to compare. Mirros Edge has a lot of death, and a lot of trial and error, it's all about making things absolutely perfect, landing that jump just right and making sure you carry your momentum into the next jump. It's a lot harder and more frustrating than Prince. However, in my opinion, with this extra challenge also comes more satisfying game play. When you land that perfect jump that you have been trying to land for 10 minutes it just feels good.

In Prince on the other hand there is a lot more margin for error. You can make a mistake and not be completely owned because of it. Elika will just grab and put you back on solid ground. While this make take you back a few seconds it won't be game shattering. There is also a lot more room to not be dead on in your platforming and the game will fix it for you.

If you are looking for that hardcore sense of accomplishment then a game like Mirror's edge will be able to deliver, but if you are looking to relax and just play, without a ton of frustration than go with Price. For me though, a harder more satisfying game is almost always more enjoyable, I love the sense of accomplishment.

I thought the ending was very good....i just would have liked to have had the option to NOT do what the "prince" does at end. Still, very well handled. I have no idea what to expect from the DLC epilogue, though. I mean, I can see a full sequel, but the ending was pretty solid, and I can't see what you'd add onto it as an epilogue.

i havent played it yet but when i do i will probably give it a 8 plus i will only rent it
