I started Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time this week. I jumped into it blind, and wasn't expecting it to be so hard. But I'm really enjoying it so far, about 5 hours in.
By the end of that game you will feel like a god. Keep experimenting with move combinations!
It definitely seems like that kind of game. I didn't really learn many combat moves while playing through, so by the time I got to the first boss, I was utterly stuck. 13 deaths and nearly 1 hour later I finished up for the night. The next day I started a second save file just to practice the combat moves, and ended up getting all the way up to the same boss fight lol. I got him down to his last bit of health and dropped out. So I'm going to return to my first save file tomorrow and finally whoop his ass.
Nice yeah it's definitely one of those games where it pays to experiment and just like whale away in an empty room coming up with moves.
