Warrior Within honestly

That one but I'm kinda ashamed of it.

I'm also sad that the series is dead again but I think it is for the better because the people who would want to have a muslim protagonist can't make gameplay worth shit.

Remember the movie? Yeah, that happened.

The Reboot actually. still waiting on that sequel.

I

Sand of Time is my favorite 3D platformer. Shame that there were combat sections in the way because how it handled you going from point A to point B with trying to figure out how to interact with the environment along with all of your skills was amazing.

I played them in reverse order, so Warrior Within ended up being my favorite, but if I played SOT first I wouldn't know what the fuck happened with the tone shift.

I remember the ubisoft forums being full of autism until Forgotten Sands failed and they realized it was a dead franchise.

STAND

YOU BITCH!

>those horns

They are supposed to look like the symbol for infinity

ALONE

WW>tTT>SoT not ashamed of it. WW sparked something in me as an edgy, yet quiet, teenager. I loved that game.

I want to say Two Thrones, I really do.
Problem was the game was just so buggy it made enjoying the cutscenes or gameplay a little hard, so I'm going to say Warrior Within by default.

I got Forgotten Sands on PS3 late last year as part of some month's ps plus games. I was actually impressed. It was the only PoP game I ever tried but I enjoyed it quite a bit.

What do you guys recommend for the next one I should try?

I quite like the 2008 reboot, Elika wasn't annoying as a sidekick which was a surprise. I even kinda like the twist at the end of the DLC which annoyed me at first but made sense in a weird way.

The trilogy on the previous generation. Great action puzzle platformers

I prefer WW because it felt like an exploration game because you can kind of go where ever you want, even if the line of progression is very linear. I somehow managed to beat the whole game without getting a single health upgrade, I didn't even realize they existed until I saw the Dahaka fight on youtube.

Stuart Chatwood is the best

My favorite is assassin's creed.

TTT for gameplay, WW for "open world"-ish design and parkour, SoT for... nostalgia I guess. And that's where series ended, rest is garbage.

Can Win 10 run those three by the way? I feel nostalgic urges.

I don't remember if I've finished that game. It was kind of a big departure from the original trilogy and felt kind of bland in terms of enemies, environments and weird puzzles. Maybe I'm wrong or just don't remember it that well.

I must finish my quest.. w-wait.. RUN!!

Thanks. You sir are my African American.

why would anyone feel ashamed for saying warrior within is their favorite game when it's the best one in the "trilogy"

I remember staying at home when I had fever, playing WW and drinking juice with shit tasting medicine. One of my comfiest memories.

>SoT for... nostalgia

SOT has the best pacing with story and companion system

Shahdee did nothing wrong. Kaileena was evil, she tortured men and turned them into sand monsters. How did she become this peaceful goddess in TTT?

Warrior within. I loved everything about this game. Even the edge.

Why is Warrior Within's edge tolerated but Shadow the Edgehog's tone despised?

They are pretty much equal departures from the mainline.

I loved the shit out of sands of time. I've probably played it through 10 times. I was excited for warrior within. I maybe played 45 minutes of it. Fixing the combat was cool. Multiplying the amount of it by 100 was not. maybe I should go back and play the ww and the rest now.

I have no idea. I can just say i unironically like edgy shit. Shit is so cheesy most of the time it's way to entertaining to stop just because somone is gonna call me names on indonesian sweater kniting forum. Also Godsmack as entry level cringefest it is, i went into "real" heavier music from there.

Sands of Time is in my top 5 favorite games of all time. Absolutely perfect pacing, mesmerizing story, well-made puzzles, amazing atmosphere and area design, and the time-manipulation was a brilliantly fresh mechanic.

I still get chills to this day after I finish the story and this starts playing: youtube.com/watch?v=mrDEwksdDoI

Because

1) WW was a fucking fantastic game
2) The "edginess" of the Prince made perfect sense, since he was chased by the literal incarnation of fucking DEATH.

WW was the guilty fucking pleasure of edginess. The soundtrack was so fucking METAL. Loved it

youtube.com/watch?v=CJe_22XxvMI

Sands of time
followed by Forgotten Sands

ww got me into metal. Now i ventured off ot many diffrent genres but it all started with INSIDE I.... STAND ALONE.

>Can Win 10 run those three by the way?

just re-played them recently, the steam versions ran without any problem

The psp games are fantastic ports. Really liked them.

>the second this started playing youtube.com/watch?v=k8stdr_9pVE

I think im gonna have to replay it now.

aahhh, 14 year old me fapped a lot to her
felt so bad when she died i had to replay the whole game to get the good ending

maaan, when you kill that two giants near teh waterworks or whatever the fuck that is and the song comes on, its amazing.


good gaem. replayed the trilogy on ps3 in 2014 and then played that new one set betwen the first and second. fuck, i'm old and time goes by fast.

>Just found out that the guy who made the Warrior Within (and every other PoP game's) soundtrack made the soundtrack for Darkest Dungeon


YOOOOOOOOOOOO holy fuck that man is a legend

All of them desu. Sot was just amazing. But the combat and bad ending(no rewind climb) sucked.

Ww was too dark but i enjoyed the lore, combat etc

Tt tried to do both sot and ww and it lost its way in the process but its the moest diverse of the three so i really like it for that. Unique bosses, dark prince platforming is awesome, combat of ww. One critique is the prince is the worst here

Pop2008. Shit gameplay in terms of combat and death mechanic. But great aesthetic, recaptures the sot chemistry amongst characters, great music and look

Forgotten sands. The BEST platforming of all of them. Especially once you get all three platforming powers. Too bad the story, combat, pc port, lenght, music are absolutely HORSE SHIT. If they could make another with a better pc port and same platofrming its love it. The freeze water mixed with recall ancient city ability is trully the best pop platforming ever

>ancient persians
>muslim

kys subhuman.

>all these WW worshiping kids

absolutely disgusting

I never really understood why people didn't like TTT. Was it because of the nega-protag trope? The combat in this game was so delicious and the speed kills were a great addition, along with the best puzzle platforming section in the entire series.

And the ending...fucking brilliant

youtube.com/watch?v=JHfWADEgX-I

warrior within cause so dark, edgy, metal, superior combat and I was a child but 2008 remake is my 2nd favourite part

she was a bitch and let many innocent persian die in T2T.

all trylogy was great but different

>tfw i liked all of them

feels gud

OHSHIT

I tought of those old stop motion Sinbad films where they would swear by Allah and the prophet all the time.

best level design and presentation too

I love replaying this second trilogy of PoP, same with Beyond good and evil, there's something about these ps2 era ubisoft games that make them really comfy

Prince of Persia: The Two Thrones was alot of fun have lots of fond memeroies of it, but also a lot of moments of rage when playforming.

fuck no, I'd rather burn the world to the ground than let 2017 Ubisoft touch the PoP games

WW was my favourite but i liked all of them.

Warrior Within for the gameplay

Sands of Time for the tone and story

Two Thrones was a step back in so many ways just for trying to strike a compromise between its two predecessors. It was fun, but lackluster.
Also, Warrior Within is one of the few games to do weapon degradation right. And don't act like you didn't think the entire Sandwraith thing wasn't the tightest shit.

>bonus round: how many of WW's secret weapons did you find?

>how many of WW's secret weapons did you find?
I went out of my way to find all of them. Even that silly Rayman one.

It's been awhile but I got that exact same feeling too.

Damn I should play WW again. Such a nice game.

Still mad it didn't return to you if you threw it.

>How did she become this peaceful goddess in TTT?
Because ubisoft gave the dev team only a tiny amount of time (they were at the backend of the generation) in which they had to shit out a game which had to somehow be like SOT again. So they just took the parts they could work into it (narrator, prince being good guy, farah, dagger of time) to try and recapture SOT without any piece actually fitting.

>well-made puzzles
the puzzles are not good. The light puzzles are pisseasy if you know to look for the worn out patches on the ground, the crystal trap powering puzzle will have the guy scream as soon as you make a mistake and requires you to just take it from the bottom without thought.

>tfw u see the first wall run in slowmo in sands of time

hey, the Library was fucking brilliant, even if the drag lines were obvious, it still took quite a lot of thinking to make it work

>that one time I tried to buy Warrior Within at a best buy as a teenager but I was carded at check out because it's an M rated game so I just awkwardly had to walk out empty handed

it's all I think about when I see that game

>it still took quite a lot of thinking to make it work
Not if you have any puzzling experience at all. All the mirrors had to be dragged to the nearest worn patch. The only possible difficulty was that you had to smash a wall. But except for that it was more busiwork than actually having to think it out. Even the sword puzzle required you to maybe switch two mirrors around. The puzzles wouldve been fine if you had to figure out where they had to go yourself, but no, they just marked it out for you

hey, I was 13 when the game came out

I remember getting stuck on the room-mirror puzzle after the bath for literally months

sounds you never got any old style fuck you puzzling done

Without looking it up? the laser sabre thing and i think the hokey stick thats all i got. And i only got water sword on 2nd playthrough.

WW > TTT > SOT > TFS > 2008

Next Prince of Persia game when?

As much as i would love a new PoP, i don't believe it would be any good with current ubisoft.

I am so mad i can't get it to run on modern windows.

I dont think it will end well considering what ubisoft put out lately. Their platforming is getting simplified every turn and their characters get more and more annoying

i had that happen to me when i was 16 and living in the US for a year

>tfw i was abroad and didn't have my desktop
>had to play gta san andreas on xbox 360
>couldn't buy game on console because i was only 15 even though i had it on my PC back home
>fucking america, everything works and is great while here in brazil ppl don't give a fuck
>too bad americans are cunts
>day of diet when
>i comment with a friend and her mom about the situation
>they find it funny
>her mom gives gta sa for me as a birthday gift

i hate americans but man i did meet some cool ppl desu.

brace for a shitload of americans being cunts because you called americans cunts

Two Thrones felt like it had a smaller budget at certain parts. While I think the combat was at its best, and the new platforming sections were loads of fun, the areas that you explore weren't all that interesting and a lot of the sound effects didn't have quite that oompf to them.

It's been a while since I played Warrior Within, but I loved the way the island looked. The ability to jump back and forth in time was really clever and offered lots of unique environments. Two Thrones was just an arab city.

What's the verdict?

america is great desu. americans are the problem.

great country, great infrastructure. public schools are actually okay, ppl have opportunity for success if they truly want it. you can feel safe walking down the street as long as you don't live in a fucking ghetto. your tax money is well spent.

now watch as americans will tell me i'm wrong about all of these things because they are (for the most part) spoiled little shits who don't know how good they have it and have turned into fat disgusting slobs that will complain and bitch and sue everything because its not the way they want it specifically.

some americans are cool tho.

also, i just remembered i actually made a point to buy original copies of sands of time, warrior within and the two thrones when i lived in america even though i had pirated copies back home to play on my modded gamecube.

fuck, i loved those games.

Ironically, i keep forgetting this shit exists.

its okay. not a hard game by any stretch. not bad. not great either.

its fun. you'll enjoy it if you enjoyed the sand of time trilogy.

Could be worse.

I liked the film. Gemma Arterton is hot.

shit created only because of incoming movie
dont even bother

Why didn't the prince rewind back to before the sands of time were released?

played the Wii version, the co op mode was fun but broke the game

6-7/10 it was ok but inferior to the SoT trilogy

I replayed the trilogy recently having remembered I liked SoT the most, WW being alright and TT terrible.

SoT still holds up as a great game. WW on the other hand was fucking painful and I wanted to kill myself by the end. The whole game was fucking terrible, especially the combat. TT was actually alright.

Currently playing 08

You seem very conflicted.

ass creed bullshit

Warrior Within hit me when I was a teen, and so nostalgia will always keep it in my heart with warm thoughts. I enjoyed the reboot PoP with Elika too, something that seems incredibly rare.

My opinions on the games changed since I was 12 when I originally played them. How am I conflicted?

better than 2008 and assass creed
I enjoyed my time with it but it's a flawed game

I agree with you, WW was nothing but continuous frustration for me, and while TT was very derivative but it was kinda nostalgia fun. SoT is still a fantastic game

The one that was total ass.

How's Sands of Time? PS2 btw
Is it filled with cutscenes? gonna play via ethernet for now so cutscenes end up having stuttering

He did, that's precisely how Sands of Time ended

youtube.com/watch?v=xzkJ7KgQIsI

A broken game is great for speedrunning

because that would make a hentai goat demon that controls space and time hunt him, kill his mother in from of him and make him live in a boat LONGER than berserk did

Nice lore knowledge
