Product Description

Marking the next-gen console debut of Ubisoft’s critically acclaimed series, Prince of Persia - The Forgotten Sands is the next chapter in the fan-favorite Sands of Time universe. Visiting his brother’s kingdom following his adventure in Azad, the Prince finds the royal palace under siege from a mighty army bent on its destruction. His brother Malik decides to use the ancient power of the Sand in a desperate gamble to save the kingdom from total annihilation. To save the kingdom, the Prince must embark on an epic adventure in which he will learn to bear the mantle of true leadership, and that great power often comes with a great cost. Wii owners will get the original 1992 Prince of Persia game as a bonus included on disc.
 
My Take on the GameThis was the first Prince of Persia game that I have ever tried. I actually did not know that the movie was based on a game until after I had seen the movie itself. Anyway, n playing this game, I have to say that I was impressed. The game was action-packed from the very first to last moments in the game. I found myself not wanting to stop playing the game, and instead wanting to continue on to see if I could beat the gae sooner than later. I loved the action sequences, with sword fights, climbing ledges, flying over walls and other tasks that will challenge your skills and logic at every turn.
Controls:
I found the controls in this game to be quite responsive. I am not always the most deft at games, but even someone like me could get a hand on the controls and  found myself holding my own in the combat and other action sequences.
I was impressed with the overall graphics and plot of the game. All of the game seems to flow well together and the action keeps coming moment after moment!
Overall this was a great game, not only for the action it contains, but also for the great graphics, sound and overall storyline. I ould highly recommend this game to others that love action packed adventures!
