God of War 2 is lightyears better than this game

I keep hoping that it will get more difficult, but it is the same over and over. I'll probably give it another week or so then trade it in for another game

I meant gears of war 2 I actually haven't played a God of War game yet.

You definitely have much more patience than me, I'm ready to turn it in after one day!

well I just tinker around with it, playing for 30 minutes at a time

plus the wife likes watching me play it, so its not too bad

The combat system really fucking kills this game for me, it's the least fun I've ever had playing a video game.

rented it. this is my first ever prince of persia game, and i fucking LOVE it! the whole exploration/platforming aspect is awesome to me

Then you absolutely have to play some of the other titles, which I thought were much better than this one.

"Much of the game boils down to a rhythm game with a pretty facade. It's like guitar hero without the music where the 'notes' coming down just take the shape of a ring bolted into the side of the wall, worn spots, one of those colored wall plate things, etc. You just sit back and watch, making sure you press the correct color when your guy reaches a certain cue."

In other words, its like playing Don Bluth's "Dragon's Lair" Arcade game released in 1983? (which was an awesome game...but not what i would want in a prince of persia game)

IMO, yes. Except in 1983 Dragon's Lair had the novelty of being a playable cartoon, which really set it apart graphically from every other game at the time, so it was immensely popular because there was nothing else out there like it. If it came out today it would be a kids game controlled by the DVD remote on the extras DVD of Disney's Sleeping Beauty.

Not to knock what I, as a kid, thought was the best game ever made. Maybe I'm just cursing it for taking all my quarters without me so much as seeing what was beyond the second or third screen. Awesome for it's time, but yeah, not what I wanted out of a PoP game.

The entire game isn't like that, but there are significant portions of the game that I felt like things were on autopilot - if you kept pressing the right buttons.

It kind of depends on how you look at it. Movement is much more fluid in this game than in SoT. Like, once you start moving the game makes it slightly easier for you to continue moving at a quick pace, rather than in SoT where you'd make a move, look around, and move again.

does anyone know how to get to those light seeds?

If you go to the area underneath that, there's a semi-hidden green portal you have to jump to, that will go in a tunnel behind the wall and end up there.
