I never played a PoP game b4 and I recently got a PSP. From what I read from reviews, this game seems ok. Besides the sound bugs, can you guys give me some pros to this game? How long does it last? and how's the replayability? Thanks

It is pretty good sometimes the levels are hard to figure out and I am stuck on a certain one.

It's a pretty good game, but I would advise you to get Revelations first. It's a great game, besides its story is set prior to the events of Rival Swords.

I was disappointed by Rival Swords' story, that's why I rate it a bit lower than Revelations. Apart from that fact, they're both great games. It's just that Revelations has really intense story and dark atmosphere, to which Rival Swords doesn't quite live up. Although it's just my opinion.

And besides, for story to matter something in the first place, you should play the first game of the series, the Sands of Time. Sadly, it was never released on PSP.

Oh, and for your questions:

Rival Swords lasts about 8-10 hours, Revelations a bit longer I think, something like 10-12, although it depends on the dificulty level you play on. Considering replayability they're both pretty good, having some collectible secrets and unlockables, but I think Revelations is a bit better here as well with its secret weapons and two endings.

revelations is better? wow.  I thought I might like Rival swords seeing the reviews and seeing how much revelations sucked.  I rented it and after a day i just couldnt take the crap controls gliches and rediculous load times.

Well, tastes differ. It seems I happened to overlook all these shortcomings you mentioned.

pop Rival Swords is a cool game, the story is interesting, gameplay is cool, rival swords is less buggy than revelation but both are worth playing.
