Short game. Yet all its other parts make up perfectly for the shortness of it making its only flaw seem incomparable.
First touch on the power button with the disc in, I truly got excited. I really wanted to see what was it like. I gave one good look and I found my mouth wide open and I was drooling compared to the quality of the first Prince of Persias. First of all, its graphics compared to present day games is generally good. But compared to when it came out, it was just 'perfect.' Great effects and shadows. Beautiful and top notch sounds. It is the right game for graphic-a-holics, if I may name them so respectively.
Next is the gameplay. It is simply addictive and feels like a bundle of fists jump out of the screen and pull you into it. It has a BEAUTIFUL story. The city you play in is so huge and engaging. Everyone keeps saying though that is a compartively short game and frankly I agree. But look at all the other elements and the shortness is in one word: incomparable.
Next great thing is all these cool and right off the hook moves that cause no frustration and are pretty easy to use. This makes it all worthwhile.
All I have to say in short is save all the money in the world and buy it blind-folded.
