Sadly, it seemed back then that a title of Sands of Time's caliber would just not come, given the new path laid down by Warrior Within for the Prince series. A good rule of thumb is to understand when one more stroke is too many and when an excess of magic is drab. Indeed, an excess of scantily clad women, shadowy beasts and heavy riffs made Warrior Within ordinary, for when all is dark and grimy, even the dark and grimy become bright. In trying to appeal to more folks by lining the game with more stuff, much of the original magic was lost. But despite best efforts and a healthy dose of hard rocking, Warrior Within cheesily fell short of the amazingly high bar its predecessor set. Swords and shadows! Dirt and "bitches!" Warrior was to be Ubi's sinister, consumer friendly modification of the fundamental Sands mechanics that were ever so thrilling and critically acclaimed. To appease the lowbrow demands of 100 million casual gamers unwilling to spend cash for Ubisoft's brilliant Sands of Time game, the company took Warrior Within into the more digestible realm of "action" and away from the realm of "thinking-man's platformer."

Of course, we must consider a game's native environment when assigning our ratings and while consoles are inundated with action platformers, the PC is starving for a good one. That being said, you will also notice some slight variations in the scores at the end of this article. This is because the games are virtually identical across all platforms, save for a few bits here and there. [Ed's note: Hey there, Prince fans! If you're an avid reader of IGN you'll notice that this quaint little review of Prince of Persia: The Two Thrones is a copy of the same one that ran on our GameCube, PlayStation 2 and Xbox channels.
