Running Along Walls in Prince of Persia: Rival Swords
Released on April 1, 2007, yeah April Fool’s Day, Prince of Persia: Rival Swords is one hell of a game PSP hardcore gamers must have! It’s from Ubisoft and yeah it’s got great graphics and a nice gameplay. I just had this game this morning but I wasn’t able to try it right away. I had to go to work so I had to wait until I get home to play it. Well it’s not that I couldn’t play during breaks but I guess 15 minute breaks is not enough time to mingle with the PSP. So I waited until I got home so I could try out this awesome game.
First of all, the game intro is cool and I love it. I also love the narrator’s voice. What I love about the game is the fast kill where you take the enemy from behind. It’s like awesome but you must practice the timing so you won’t run into killing your opponent the hard way. I also love the controls which is not too bad. You use the analog thumb to move your character and X to jump or climb… it’s got a lot of controls but it’s not really hard to get the hang of it. Well, I think this game has nice assigned controls on it. I think it’s the best considering the PSP only have a pair of shoulder buttons. I really think you’ll enjoy climbing and running on walls on this game. And of course you’ll also love the moves when you kill an enemy.
Well, I can’t say anything more right now because I’m just in the beginning of the game. Tomorrow we’ll be half day at work and I’m gonna be on vacation for 5 days. I’m gonna have a very long time to play this one and hopefully, I get to finish it before I get back to work. While I’m not playing Prince of Persia: Rival Swords, I have another game to bring with me. It’s called Exit and I’m gonna try to finish this game too. Well, Exit is a puzzle game where you help survivors get out of the building. It’s got nice vector graphics and very easy controls but it has really mind boggling puzzles especially on higher levels.
Here are some screenshots for you to enjoy:
Practice balancing on a beam…
…and when you don’t fall off, jump to the gap between the walls
Now that you’re between the gap, climb down and don’t be seen
Get behind the enemy…
…and perform a swift kill…
…again and again, over and over.
Don’t let the enemy see you so hang in there!
And oh, don’t forget to drink on the fountain to regain your health and save your game.

@sidharth - Sorry, No can do. How can you kill the other hard bosses if you can’t kill this giant. Maybe you are doing it wrong. The secret here is mastering the “Speed Kill”. You must stab the giant only when the blade flashes when you are in the speed kill mode. Otherwise he throws you. After the first successful speedkill he will normally throw you but you won’t get hurt. For the second speed kill, the giant will get blind and all you have to do then is to stab the giant’s legs. When he falls down, execute a clean perfect speed kill. I don’t know how many times but it’s easy when you know.

@Eena: Go get ‘em!
@shamila: It also took me an hour figuring out how to kill that speedy chick but it’s really quite easy. First of all, you must use the sands of time wisely. You can see how many you left around the circle beside your life bar. The secret here is use the ability to slow time. When she’s about to run away press that special button, I forgot what it was, it must be down button on the D-Pad and then time will slow down. Now is your chance to beat the hell out of her. After the beating, she gets away, then you go run after her. Sands of time are scattered all over the place so if you run out, kill some monsters to gain sands. All you need here is total concentration. If you have more questions, come back here.
