Prince of Persia: Warrior Within
Prince of Persia: Warrior Within
Description (IGDB)
Prince of Persia: Warrior Within is a video game and sequel to Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time. It picks up where The Sands of Time left off, adding new features, specifically, options in combat. The Prince now has the ability to wield two weapons at a time as well as the ability to steal his enemies' weapons and throw them. The Prince's repertoire of combat moves has been expanded into varying strings that allow players to attack enemies with more complexity than was possible in the previous game. Warrior Within has a darker tone than its predecessor adding in the ability for the Prince to dispatch his enemies with various finishing moves. In addition to the rewind, slow-down, and speed-up powers from The Sands of Time, the Prince also has a new sand power: a circular "wave" of sand that knocks down all surrounding enemies as well as damaging them.
Histoire (IGDB)
Set seven years after the events of Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time, the Prince finds himself constantly hunted by a terrible beast known as the Dahaka. The Prince seeks counsel from an old wise man who explains that whoever releases The Sands of Time must die. Because the Prince escaped his fate, it is the Dahaka's mission as guardian of the Timeline to ensure that he dies as he was meant to. The old man also tells of the Island of Time, where the Empress of Time first created the Sands. The Prince sets sail for the Island in an attempt to prevent the Sands from ever being created, an act he believes will appease the Dahaka. After a battle at sea with an enemy force led by a mysterious woman in black capsizes the Prince's ship, the Prince washes ashore unconsciously onto the Island of Time. He later awakens and chases the woman in black through the Empress of Time's fortress into a portal that transports the two into the past. The Prince saves a woman named Kaileena from being killed by the woman in black, whose name is Shahdee. Unable to grant the Prince an audience with the Empress of Time, who is busy preparing to create the Sands, Kaileena instead tells him how to unlock the door to the throne room in which the Empress resides. The Prince makes his way through the fortress, utilizing the sand portals to travel back and forth between the past and present, and narrowly escapes several encounters with the Dahaka, who he discovers cannot pass through water. The Prince activates the mechanisms in the two towers of the fortress - the Garden Tower and the Mechanical Tower - that serve as locks to the door. He returns to the throne room only to discover that Kaileena is actually the Empress of Time herself, who has foreseen in the Timeline that the Prince will kill her and who has decided to attempt to defy her fate, just as the Prince is doing. A battle ensues and the Prince proves victorious; he kills Kaileena and returns to the present. What lies ahead is the most dramatic Twist in the Prince's life, and He starts believing the priest who told him "You cant change your Fate! No Man Can.." But Prince is not going to give up that easily.

Cela me fait de la peine mais la version PC présente un certain nombre de bug qui nuit vraiment à l'expérience de jeu. Je n'avais pas ces soucis lorsque je jouais sur console. Bien que c'est mon PoP préféré, je ne recommande pas ce jeu tant que ces b...

Prince of Persia HD Collection Is Europe Only, In 3D, Royally Ugly
The previously rumored Prince of Persia Trilogy 3D for the PlayStation 3 has been confirmed by publisher Ubisoft today, stuffing three PS2 games onto one Blu-ray disc, which will only be available in Europe. Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time, Prince of Persia: Warrior Within and Prince of Persia: The Two Thrones will get a visual upgrade for the re-release, but judging by the first three screen shots of the compilation, not a terribly impressive visual upgrade. Either the sands of time have not been kind to the Prince, or we've forgotten what these PS2 games originally looked like. Sure, the original Sands of Time looks alright, and maybe we've been spoiled by Sony's other HD makeovers (God of War, Shadow of the Colossus & Ico), but Warrior Within... what happened? Ubisoft says the trio of Prince of Persia games will run in 720p resolution, plus feature new textures, normal maps, anti-aliasing and optional stereoscopic 3D. Prince of Persia Trilogy 3D hits the PS3 in Europe on November 19, priced at £29.99.

Avis des critiques et joueurs
Critiques de la Presse (Metacritic)
« The prince has gone from an "Aladdin"-style teenager to a grim, angry young adult. He's even more beautifully drawn than before, and this year's installment adds a much better combat system. »
« Once again, it exemplifies the very definition of a boundary-pushing video game. »
« One of the best damn games ever, period. This is definitely at the top of my list for Game of the Year, due to addicting gameplay, fantastic presentation, some of the coolest looking blood ever in a game, and a combat system that is relatively second-to-none. »
« Warrior Within is not perfect - there's too much backtracking, too many low-poly character models, recurring cheap deaths on small platforms - but it's the closest the adventure genre will come to it in this generation of systems. [Dec 2004, p.30] »
« Like watching a great adventure story on a Saturday afternoon, with the added dimension that YOU get to be the hero. »
« Its change of pace and maturity feels just right, the platforming is divine, and the action is something to be very happy about. [Jan 2005, p.112] »
« The levels are imaginative and at times surreal, infusing the game with a unique and compelling atmosphere. The cutscenes are excellent and if you've seen a scene before and want to skip it, the game uses an interesting mechanism to allow you to bypass it. »
« The young Prince did a superb job, but amidst the darkened clouds he's aged with some style and the beautifully excessive fighting system creates a much-improved character and a better all-round game. [XBM] »
Avis des Joueurs (Metacritic)
« Il mio preferito della saga. Un titolo che consiglio a tutti e ti prego Ubisoft fai un remake o delle remastered della saga almeno »
« It hurts to know that they postponed the remake but ubisoft here made us enjoy for the time I'm sorry I'll be nostalgic but this game apart from the painful dubbing in Italian because I'm Italian and I'm not ashamed to say it this game is 9/10 for me really well done for the time thanks for everything ubisoft »
« [SPOILER ALERT: This review contains spoilers.] »
« This was Dark Souls before Dark Souls with the vibes. Great battle systems, great movements and great opressive atmosphere as warrented by the story. »
« S+(10/10) A Timeless Masterpiece! Warrior Within is darker, intense, and so gripping that I keep coming back to play. The Prince of Persia Sands trilogy as a whole is timeless — I honestly can’t choose a favorite among these three games. »
« The best Ubisoft game ever made, the gameplay, the music, the characters, the story and the atmosphere were all top notch. I really miss this era of theirs because they've been producing copy-pasted, repetitive open world crap since AC, that's why they became ****. At least now a lot of other people are bored with them, so they're in big trouble. It would be nice if they sold the PoP rights to someone else. »
« The 'M' rating and darker heavy metal look actually works against the game. It feels too forced with the Prince looking like an "edgy" comic book anti-hero. Still, "Warrior Within" is plenty of fun with its mix of combat, puzzles and platforming. Graphically, it looks great too. I would rate this sequel with an 8.3 out of 10. »
« Brutal, el príncipe más sólido de la trilogía. Una gran atmósfera y una de las bandas sonoras más memorables de PS2. »
