...the prince interfere with the fate. The story is mysterious and dark in this game. The prince tries to escape from a dark creature, the Dahaka, and wishes to reach the isle of time where he can stop the creation of the sand of time. The presentation is surprisingly good with some movies which developped the story. The action is good in them. The cinematics are very long. That's not obviously a good thing, because you can see them many time due to game over. The graphics are very different of what you have seen in sand of time. The fact is that i feel as if i was in painkiller. They are dark as if you visit the hell in the present and they are "blurry" and colorful as in a dream when you visit the past. The sprite of the hero is curiously dimensioned. He looks like a half ling and is different from the one of sand of time. His postures are various and he can do lots of things with a sword. The battles are interessant because of the moves he can perform. The enemies are various but they have all the same animation, pirates and upgrades, ninjas and upgrades, hunters and boss. All could be perfect if there wasn't graphical bugs like "invisible" crow, no textured ninjas and rain of purple textured ninja during the game on the PC version. The animation is excellent, smooth and fast. The game doesn't run at 60 fps but runs well. Walking on the wall as in matrix is really entertaining and fighting a horde of pirates is fun. The prince can do various jump, can rebound on the wall to ascend or to descend to a place. The originality is here but lots of moves seems to come from Tomb Raider. To be exact Tomb Raider was the 3D version of the original POP, same controls and calculation for a jump but now POP reprises his right. However, doing the monkey, jump from a pole to another or jumping in the void, the prince is not the only one to do it now....
