Prince of Persia: Warrior Within PS2/iPhone/iPod Touch Review


Graphics: Darker theme than most other PoP games allow for some top notch dark visual design. iPod Touch version is lower resolution and fairly blocky, but still the art style is great. 9/10

Story: Decent story, but this time around the prince is a jerk and we dont care about him much. Still, a great lead in for two thrones. 8.5/10

Sound: PS2 version had awful hard rock heavy metal music, but thats been replaced by decent adventure music in iDevice version. Voice acting is mostly alright, nothing that great hear though. 7/10

Gameplay: The platforming and and puzzles in this is some of the best of any PoP. This has an "upgraded" combat system. The big thing here is the dual-wielding, allowing for some customization. You can use weapons left behind from enemies to either combine it with your sword to create some cool combos, are you can just throw your secondary weapon at an enemy. 10/10

Overall: 8.6/10 The darker theme adds to the experience of the platforming and action, causing for an extremely fun game.
