Zero Punctuation - Prince of Persia Retropective

This week Yahtzee cannot find anything 'new' he can review and felt that comments he'd made about Prince of Persia series being "one of the best series of the last generation" - and decides to elaborate on this and give a little history of the whole series :)
Selektaasays...

So what are Yahtzee's top 5 games? My guesses are:

1 Portal
2 Silent Hill 2?
3 PoP
4 Spider man 2?
5 ???

2 and 4 don't seem to make much sense, but that's what I think I read there. What do yo guys think?

"Portal Perfection"
Yahtzee tells it like it is.


You know. I like Portal, I enjoyed it, I thought it was way too short... but I really don't feel it deserves QUITE the amount of adulation it receives.

Spot on for being a different game using a different mechanic and having some nice humour, but MAN, some people treat it like the second coming of christ or something.

Perhaps it's simply not an issue to most people, as they understood what was meant?

Title should say "RetroSpective," not "Retropective." Retropective is not a word. Retrospective means to look back. 46 votes and nobody noticed?

PoP: the Sands of Time was the awesome, even if the sparse combat was frustrating at times.
PoP: Warrior Within has great combat, but the one giganto level is so confusing I have no idea how to beat it without a strategy guide.
PoP: Two Thrones... haven't got there yet, because I haven't finished Warrior Within.

Agree. It's such a great game that it's a fucking tragedy it's over so soon. One of those games you want to go on forever. Hoping the next one has at least 100 levels/challenges. I highly recommend Echochrome for anyone who's seen it all in Portal and is still thirsting for similar puzzle action.
