I genuinely thought Prince of Persia 2008 was the best game in the series; I thought the others were too banal; really disappointed they didn't continue it, the sales were modest.

They should've continued it because even if it didn't sell as much as Assassin's Creed, Ubisoft would still be maintaining that fanbase however small.

Very disappointed, the 2008 game was one of my favourite games this generation.

Glad I'm not the only one that thought this. Absolutely loved the 2008 games. They tried to do things a little differently and some older fans might not have liked it but I thought it was quite simply a joy to play.

Would love to see a sequel.

I'm playing the new one right now actually and I consider myself an "older" fan of the series. Gotta admit it's not that bad and I enjoy the art style. One thing that ticked me off about the sequels to the Sands of Time was the drastic change in art style. The games felt way too dark and "emoish", didn't really enjoy them.

I've only played the original and the 2008 game so I can't really comment on the art-style of the others. I probably picked up the original a bit too late as the revolutionary platforming has been refined since so isn't as amazing now. That and the controls on PC are a bit annoying but still an enjoyable game to play.

The 2008 game on the other hand just clicked with me. The art-style, the refined platforming, the use of Elika and the banter between the main characters just made for a very enjoyable game.
