Hey hey folks, and welcome to my critique on Prince of Persia (2008). Why is playing Prince of Persia a futile experience? Well first I need to answer the question of what would cause me to think such a thing. From Elika, to the platforming, to the developer's aims, we look at each in turn and I hopefully put together a good case as to why playing Prince of Persia was such a frustrating experience for me. Enjoy!
