Ruvika: Finally completed Prince of Persia Warrior Within, twice to be exactly, one on PC and the other on the PS2, and man... Time was hard on PoPWW, I used to love this game back in the day, one of my favourite PC games and I play it with keyboard and mouse, but when I replay for this thread, it was incredible frustrating I tried to see it like a product of its time, but was full of problem, imprecise controls with keyboard and mouse that make some platform sections incredible hard and slow (effing fixed camera angles, fortunately they are on the past), terrible hit boxes where enemies even hit you when you are out of their range, or even when you dodge their attacks, a boring story, painful backtracking with a terrible map system, that make comeback to a place a question of memory and luck. I practically hate the game when I was playing on PC, more because I had to reset my computer when I was close to complete the game so I had to so it all over again.
When I took my PS2 and boot the game was another story, some of the problems where still there, yet the platform is so much smooth, I memorized the track so, that make it much easier the backtracking, but the combat was still awful.
The combat is very dynamic, have a good amount of weapons and different combat moves, yet those problems with the hit boxes still make the game more frustrating than good.
On the goos side, graphics were really good and some of the art still holds up today. End of the good things.
For me today, the game is a 4/10 being generous, play a lot of old game and many still hold up very well, even played Sands of Time recently, and that game was way more polished than this one. Looks like this one needed some extra development time.

.Keys: Playing Doom 3 and Prince of Persia: Warrior Within. :)
