Prince of Persia - Blu-ray Forum

This game is horrendous, one of the worst I've ever played. So far it just freezes every time you need to press a button and tells you what button to press. So annoying, I know what button to press I'm not an idiot -the gameplay is for infants!

When I heard you couldn't die I expected it to be like Soul Reaver, but it's extremely lame the way Elika constantly saves you with the same stupid cut scene.

The controls are awful. You just press a button and wait. Then press another button and wait. Fights scenes are made up of long stupid slow mo action sequences that you have to sit through just from pressing a button or two.

The level design is horrendous, it's vast but not detailed enough.

Voice overs may be the worst I've ever heard in my life, it's embarrassing to listen to.

AND it's glitchy, in the first level the ground completely disappeared and just from walking I would fall into nothingness and Elika would save me. I thought it was intentional until I remembered the gametrailers.com review:
"If you do anything the game doesn't expect, it will cause crashes on the PS3"

This is an interactive movie, not a game. I can't recommend it to anyone. I hope that people enjoy it, but if you are on the fence about buying it RENT IT first.
After this, I had to play Ninja Gaiden 2 to remind myself what a real video game is.
