Jordan	0 0 In response to Article » Go to 's original post Lovely game, am enjoying the game for what it is, a beautiful, relaxing swagger through a glorious world. The naysayers see reptition and overt ease, I see a game that knows it's not hardcore, but appeals nonetheless. Take PoP for what it is, don't attempt to make it into a frustrating, run-of-the-mill platformer. Enjoy the ride, then go back and pick up that tough achievement. Reply

Good Graphics, a bit repetitive and some lags. 3.5/5 Reply

Anonymous	0 0 In response to Article » Go to 's original post This game is a huge disappointment. There's no skill needed if you can't die... the lack of challenge and weird fighting system had me bored after less than an hour of gaming. So glad I only rented this. If you think that this game is good, go back and play the Sands of Time for 10 minutes and you'll see the light. I did. New prince's animations are choppier than old prince's... Reply

lytwalker	0 0 In response to Article » Go to 's original post It's definitely less challenging than most games like this, but it does require more thought and a bit of skill (mostly timing though), to beat the bosses later on in the game. While playing it, it became apparent that ubisoft was trying to remove as much of the frustration you get from other platformer/action/adventure sequences in games and make a more fluid experience. At no point did I ever feel extremely annoyed at anything in this game. It was easy, admittedly, but it was just plane fun to play through. Report Reply

DETHDEVIL PSN	0 0 In response to Article » Go to 's original post What I find disappointing is the cookie cutter gamers everyone has become. This game is about the experiance. I enjoyed it and I think others would enjoy it if people would just set aside expections and hype and just enjoy games. I've been gaming for 20 years and had every console released. Never have gamers been so picky.Every game ever made gets repetitive at some point. SoT trilogy is over,time for something new, quit whining and nitpicking games to death and just play and enjoy them if you dont like it sell and let the people who do enjoy it Reply

I didn't try and rip my hair out. This is diluted PoP. Liked it for what it is, but I would have loved more of a challenge. Reply
