    Despite it's clumsy combat system, The Forgotten Sands delivers a nice experience on PSP.

    It's fun the first time around. Other than that, you can replay levels for better scores and more unlockable stuff, but there's not much reason to replay the entire game.

    The well-designed levels in The Forgotten Sands do a good job of sucking you into this 2D world, but minor control issues and lame combat distract from the fun.

    Aside from the disappointing revelation toward the end of the game, Prince of Persia is a solid experience on the PSP. It expertly treads the line between giving us a taste of what exists on the consoles and offering unique and challenging gameplay that is suited to the handheld. If not for the sloppy missteps, I would say that the Forgotten Sands would be a worthy addition to anyone's PSP library.

    A way better than it's PC bro... At least the story can be connected to the POP-trilogy easier for sure.

    I didn't like the way the story started, it seemed too fast and... well, the story isn't the strong point of this game, but the gameplay isI didn't like the way the story started, it seemed too fast and... well, the story isn't the strong point of this game, but the gameplay is very cool! the system of stopping and speeding up time makes the puzzles of this game unique, kinda funny I'd say. The sword upgrades are cool and really make a difference in battle, but I decided to avoid upgrading the Prince's HP to keep the game on a challenging level beyond the puzzles, and it worked. I didn't have much problem with the prince's HP, but the game can be challenging if you don't have any experience with games.… Full Review »
