Prince of Persia: Sands of Time is a very good action adventure game. Much of the game centers around the movements of the character which are very original and unlike most other video games in this genre. Climbing, jumping, running, and swinging motions are all big parts of this game. The combat scenes are less frequent than many games in this genre. If fighting is "your thing" than you migh stay away from the original Prince of Persia: Sands of Time and try the sequal Prince of Persia: Warrior Within. The graphics are excellent and the music very good, adding to the quality of the game. If you are more of a RPG enthusiast, Sands of Time is likely not for you. Overall, a very good action/adventure game and worth the money to try since it has been out for a few years... which reminds me it has aged well. It was ahead of its time.Read full review
I hate Xbox, I'll be honest, but this game is well worth it. I have sat down with this game and become absorbed in it immediately. The controls are not too difficult to master in a short period of time, and for once the Xbox controller doesn't feel awkward to use. I don't really have much more to say as I'm not a reviewer. If you want to know more about the game, visit IGN or something :) It's a good game, well worth the purchase, and it has the added bonus of the first two *original* games as unlockable features.
I played a friend's copy a couple of years ago, first on the Game cube, and later on the X-box. This game is a classic. I don't know of any others like it. It has beautiful graphics, unique, puzzle-solving gameplay, swashbuckling adventure, and an intriguing storyline. On top of that, the middle-eastern music draws you in to the mythical magic of ancient Persia. While it's sequels may have better puzzles and gameplay, they also get gorier and more sensual. (That might be a plus for some). Of the Prince of Persia trilogy, this is definitely my favorite!
No previous experience with the Prince of Persia series is required to enjoy Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time. In fact, virtually nothing will bar you from being impressed by this extremely well-put-together action adventure game from the studio that brought you Splinter Cell and Rainbow Six 3. In stark contrast to Ubisoft Montreal's previous offerings, Prince of Persia is surprisingly easy, despite the incredible acts of skill and daring that the game's main character will routinely perform during the course of the game. As a result, this original, visually stunning game can be highly recommended to just about anyone.
Some consider this to be old school, playing a game like this. I don't think so. One of the great Xbox games out there. Really fun good strategy game.

From what I can tell, this is the earliest of the Prince of Persia games and is to this point my favorite. You play as the acrobatic warrior who is known and is referred to as the Prince of Persia (or just Prince). Battle through the game gathering the sands you let loose and use them to slow, stop, even rewind time! Spoiler: there are also hidden sections in the game where you can gather more health and become stronger!
I have had the pleasure of playing one of the best games ever made; Prince of Persia 2: The sands of Time ( Xbox) This game is loaded with suspense, intrigue and excitement from the very beginning. Loaded with tons of traps just ready to destroy the Prince and deter him from his dangerous necessary quest. Guaranteed to keep you on the edge of your seat to the end.......... IF YOU MAKE IT. A MUST HAVE FOR ANY GAME COLLECTOR.
This product has met my expectations. Originaly I became interested in The Prince of Persia series because of the graphics on the newer games released and wanted to catch up with the story line. I have enjoyed playing this game and it gives me a chance to save my progress often, allowing me to get a good nights rest. I look forward to the other 2 Prince of Persia games already purchased through ebay as well.
The Prince of Persia Games are the best games for a single player experience. Working with both the old Xbox and the new 360. Having such a gamer experience makes you want to have all of them! And for the low price that you can get this game for it is completely worth it! Buy this game and you'll see what I mean. The Prince of Persia games were epic in their time and continue to lead the way for gaming.
I like this game for its novel presentation that combine a story smoothly with gameplay. The abilities of the character and puzzle sovling present challenges to keep up interest throughout the game. I don't care for the costumes of the women that and the kids (7 and 10) in the house have asked, "why are they dressed like that?" The women "bad guys" also make an irratating scream but I guess that is part of the atmosphere. Overall I recommend the game to teens and adults as a great gaming experience.
