All told, this is a great debut for the Prince of Persia series on the PS3 and Xbox 360. [Jan 2009, p.74]

IGN UK
Ubisoft has delivered an incredibly polished, tremendously enjoyable and utterly lovable experience here. It takes all the best elements of previous franchise entries then expands and refines them to create an absolutely unforgettable adventure. It’s magical in every sense of the word.

It has its shortcomings, but I already sense that Prince of Persia will be one of the few games from this generation that I carry with me for the next decade.

Rest assured, Prince of Persia is every bit the game you wanted – it is the game you were promised and a whole lot more.

|
| 9.0 | Presentation A well-told fairy tale that has a considerable amount of backstory for those interested. |
|
| 9.0 | Graphics A beautiful and imaginative world that looks incredible covered in Corruption or dandelions. A true achievement in artistic design. |
|
| 8.5 | Sound The music is fantastic and the enemy voices are handled well. The Prince comes off as a bit too much of a jerk and some of his lines feel a bit forced. |
|
| 9.0 | Gameplay A few minor issues, but the experience itself is one that every gamer should experience. |
|
| 8.5 | Lasting Appeal The main adventure can be completed in less than 10 hours, but it will take some extra time if you hunt down all the Light Seeds. Unlockable skins add some fun to a second playthrough. |
