Sega CD: Prince of Persia

[Alex Di Ricco]

Whoever reprogrammed this game (the distributors are Sony/Imagesoft)
for the Sega CD did a hack job. The intermissions sequences are lame
(bad graphics and _terrible_ voice acting), the game graphics aren't
that good, and it only has 2 main songs during the game (it's on a
freaking CD! there is plenty of space). Still, the game is fun.
Frustrating as hell (I almost put my fist through the TV screen a
couple of times), but fun. For anyone who hasn't played it before,
I think it's worth a rental, maybe even worth buying used.

Seriously, this is the best review of a game I have ever read
on the net, much less anywhere else. I just can't figure out why, but
it is. god knows I've almost put my fist through a tv before as well.
Broke 2 controllers on Alex Kidd (of all games!). I scared my
girlfriend to death, but it was the only game I've ever finished...

The best review, because it is the most honest of many.
