A little darkness and a lot of angst go a long way toward ruining one of last year's surprise hits. Read Review
The Old Man said to the Prince, "Your fate has been written. You will die." Enter the dark underworld of Prince of Persia: Warrior Within, the sword-slashing sequel to the critically acclaimed Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time. Hunted by Dahaka, an immortal incarnation of Fate seeking divine retribution, the Prince embarks upon a path of both carnage and mystery to defy his preordained death. His journey leads to the infernal core of a cursed island stronghold harboring mankind's greatest fears. Only through grim resolve, bitter defiance and the mastery of deadly new combat arts can the Prince rise to a new level of warriorship -- and emerge from this ultimate trial with his life.
Sequenced screens of puzzle solutions, combat and environmental guides, secrets, and more
Imagine you made a game that was beautiful, fluid, well-designed, charming -- even witty at times. It has a few problems, notably combat, but most games do. Imagine further that this game of yours, upon release, doesn't sell quite as fast as expected. It does well enough in the end, but ... you think it could do better. You just need that killer angle, the hook that'll snare those fickle 18-24 year-old males. After some thought, you come up with a plan. Your sequel will be darker, which mostly means the colors will be expunged. It will have embarrassingly juvenile T&A. And it will jettison nearly every vestige of the last game's charm. Is this a winning plan? Back in the real world we'll soon find out, because I've just described Prince of Persia: Warrior Within. Read More »
