Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands is the latest Prince of Persia (POP) title produced by Ubisoft and actually fits in the time between POP: The Sands of Time and POP: The Warrior Within. Though released alongside Disney's film adaption: Prince of P...
The Forgotten Sands is a fun and challenging platform game that's worthy of carrying the Prince of Persia name...

In 2008 Ubisoft rebooted the long running franchise Prince of Persia, abandoning the Sands of Time universe the three previous games had been based off in the process. The game, simply called Prince of Persia, delivered a critically acclaimed title tha...
The fantastic platforming and sword fighting from The Sands of Time universe returns.
Not a fully polished product.

I’ve been a huge fan of the Prince of Persia series dating all the way back to the original PC side-scroller from Broderbund, and you can be sure I was the first person to download that classic when it made its way to XBLA a few years ago in a stunning...

The Prince of Persia has taken an interesting journey in the last handful of years. Critics look back fondly on 2003’s The Sands of Time for its combination of heartwarming storytelling, simple yet addictive combat and groundbreaking platforming. The s...

Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands is an odd conundrum as a video game. Strictly speaking, Forgotten Sands is not a movie-tie in, though it was released in the same month as the feature film Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time. Furthermore, Forgotte...

Prince of Persia: Forgotten Sands for the Xbox 360 is a good looking game and fans of the franchise who enjoy the Prince’s high flying acrobatic moves will undoubtably enjoy this entry into the series. Unfortunately, the combat in the game is less...

Ubisoft's Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time stands as one my favorite games. At the time of its release, the game's re-imagined beauty and control was like nothing we had seen. Go back and play it today and it still holds up, a magical journey with...

If we could rewind time like the titular prince, we might go all the way back to The Sands of Time, 2002's Prince of Persia title that The Forgotten Sands apparently harks back to. Or maybe we'd go back to school and crack onto more girls or try harder...

by Anthony GallegosI've been a fan of the Prince of Persia franchise ever since 2003's The Sands of Time. The combination of acrobatics and combat-- along with the sweeping environments -- made the Prince of Persia franchise one of my favorites from th...
Forgotten Sands is much better than the 2008 Prince of Persia, but still not as great as Sands of Time – the game it so obviously seeks to recapture the spirit of. The story and visuals are unimpressive, but the combat and platforming are good enough t...

A stellar return to form for one of the biggest names in action/adventure gaming, Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands serves as the best series installment since 2003's The Sands of Time.I've enjoyed all of the Prince of Persia titles that have been...
Friendlier tone; best climbing puzzles in the series; fun combat against plentiful opponents; easy on the eyes.
Some aggravating trap sequences; occasional minor control issues; most battles are remarkably easy.

People, apart from a small bunch including myself, generally didn't think much of 2008's Prince of Persia, so it's no surprise that Ubisoft went back to the formula that had proved successful in the past. The Forgotten Sands is very much in the same ve...
Smart visuals, When the platforming is good it's really good, Quite short, Combat is dull...

Ask any self-respecting Prince of Persia fanboy, which game has been the best in the series so far, and the answer will invariably come back as 2002's The Sands of Time. The original remake is held up as far and away the finest PoP game so far, so The...
Story-wise, you'll be hooked enough that you'll want to finish Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands, but it's the always engaging gameplay that's king here. The narrative is a bit slight at a mere 8-10 hours, which is fine for a single-player game, bu...

The 2008 release of Prince of Persia took the franchise in an invigorating new direction, employing open-world design and a painterly artistic style to great effect. It breathed life into a series that had been treading water for years, but you won't s...
Platforming sections have lots of thrilling moments, New abilities spice up the standard jumping action, Clever puzzles require careful thought to complete, The prince's narration adds personality to the story.
Combat is shallow and way too easy, Camera restrictions makes certain sections difficult to navigate, Early portions are too familiar.
The prince's high-flying adventure is marred by camera issues and weak combat, but the excellent platforming is still loads of fun...

Getting back to its roots.Back in 2003, the team that brought us Rainbow Six and Splinter Cell, Sam Fischer decided to change directions. It was in that year that they took a break from Tom Clancy games and brought out what most (this reviewer included...
Excellent free running, Water Powers, Good Story...
Combat, Minor control issues, Did I say Combat?...
