The Prince of Persia franchise has always been the best series in Ubisoft’s catalogue. There is something truly exciting about playing in a fantastical recreation of ancient Persia that you cannot get anywhere else. The series is quite old, and is one of the earliest examples of parkour-based platforming in gaming. Here are some fun facts and trivia you didn’t know about the games!

Nixian Channel Description:
We’re lifelong video game enthusiasts with a passion for showing the world how our favorite hobby has grown with us, from individual series to industry-wide retrospectives.
We put significant time and creative effort into each one of our videos, including research, digging into archives, recording voiceovers, and editing. Every video takes as many as 10 hours to produce, because we strive to give our fans consistent, high-quality content.
Our popular “Evolution of...” series goes far beyond simply presenting gameplay footage. We take the time to show how a video game property - its gameplay, character designs, graphics, sound direction, etc. - have evolved over time. We include unique voiceover work on each video to enhance the viewing experience.
People have been playing video games for decades. In that time, we’ve gone from moving a white line up and down to block a moving pixel, to participating in full-fledged, painstakingly rendered real-time battles with people all over the world. We help older gamers look back on how these experiences have changed throughout their lives, and new gamers to understand the broader context of the series they’re playing for the first time today.
The video game medium never stops growing, and we’ll never stop chronicling its evolution.
Editing and voice-over were made by me.

Warrior within was the darkest one. The metal ost, the blood, dismemberment, color palette, the feeling of complete loneliness (no companions or voices inside your head), the anxiety of being followed by the dahaka... My favorite game from the trilogy.

Regardless of the public image of Prince of Persia 2008, this game was like walking through an animated piece of Art for me; its an unfathomable experience that can only be realized by actually playing the game. The world designing made it feel like an rectangular geometry where you always get back to the center of it. The feeling of an isolated utopia or distopia (based on the story progressing) where your only companion is a beautiful lady, a genuinely fitting character, alot of chemistry, with the air romantic, and interactions based on teasing and immersing dialogues... Fantastic follow-up story, art design, sound design (loved the isolated echoing effect over everything!) and music.

@main_stream_media_is_a_joke 2 года назад

For me only the artstyle was amazing. Personally I absolutely hate hub world level design simply because I want a progression and comming back to the central hub after completing one area seems like a regression rather than a progression... especially in a story driven game like this. Not to mention the prince was a twat and sounded and mostly acted like a jersey shore douchebag. Elika was powerfull enough to literally save the prince from falling to certain death, but needed to jump on his back when climbing....wtf was that? Except for the gfx and art which were utterly beautiful, the rest of the game felt totally disjointed. They had good ideas but were not able to create a cohesive package.

"Unmatchable by any game" is a huge exaggeration. A lot of developers put their heart and soul in the game they are working on. God of War series by Santa monica is also a good example, Valve too, i mean when Valve was developing Half-Life nobody belived in them and it was basically a newly formed studio with no big record to speak of making a triple A level title. And they ended up blowing everyone out of the water, Half-Life was a huge commercial and critical success, it is even considered to be one of the best games of all time by many.

I am an Iranian user. With this game, I have many memories of the type of architecture of buildings and music, the arrangement of equipment that was closer to ancient Iran attracted me and made me feel like I was in the past and it was enjoyable for me. But when Assassin's Creed came and the game makers abandoned the Iranian prince and went to Assassin's Creed, I didn't even play the first parts of the Assassin's Creed game, let alone the stories they made so far. I am very upset with the Ubisoft company and I tell them that they still have a first for prince of Persia

I enjoyed Warrior Within and Two Thrones as well because they kept adding new amazing mechanics to the games, and 2008 was such a fun game as well. The art style was different but I enjoyed it a lot. I really loved that the platforming, puzzles and story was the main focus for it instead of combat. I just wished they kept the series going as 3d platformers instead of going 1000% in on Assassin’s Creed. But then again, I’m glad they didn’t because annual Prince of Persia games would ruin it like it did for Assassin’s Creed
