Review (Bullet-Point style): Prince of Persia (360)

+'s:

-Great Graphical style
-Fantastic Soundtrack!
-New direction for the series works really well (and I really enjoyed the last series)
-Good Story
-Best Female "help" character this year (possibly in recent memory)
-tight controls
-Great ending!

-'s
-repetitive combat w/ limited actions

neutrals:
-dying isn't a major consequence (wave of the future--we all better get used to this)

Overall, this was a breath of fresh air, both for the series and for gaming in general. Quality Action/Adventure games seem to be a dying breed, and this is a fantastic rental option for almost anyone.


Score: 9.0/10
