Although the initial storyline is a little confusing, especially if the gamer is new to the series, the overall flow of the storyline and game work very well. This is a quality conclusion to the trilogy. It has everything and more that a new gamer or series veteran would want. If you liked the first two games, then you will enjoy this latest episode. With the improved features and abilities, combined with the classic ones, you will enjoy the final journey right through to the end.

It's certainly up for debate, but I would say that this is probably the best-made Prince of Persia title overall. Even if you don't agree with that heady assertion, it's a noble entry in the series and proves once again why I'm always grateful that Ubisoft brought this franchise back.

I'm sad that this is the last game, at least for a while, and I'm hoping that someday we'll see a continuation or a new beginning with the same style of gameplay. I would recommend that everyone who is a fan of the series give this game a shot, and that those of you who haven't been fortunate enough to play the last titles will give this one a go as well. It is a fantastic trip. Next December is going to feel a little hollow unless something rises to take Prince of Persia's place.

Games like this rarely work without resorting to violence, but toss away the fighting system, and you can still have fun with the Prince's Fred Astaire-like dexterity in zipping around obstacles.

However, these minor gripes are nothing compare to the overall gameplay and graphics contained within. Though Ubisoft has stated this is the last of the Sands of Time series, one can only hope that the Prince's adventures aren’t done yet.

This is a fitting conclusion to the arc that began with the first current-gen Prince game, and its cinematic moments do nothing if not excite me for what this franchise can become in the next generation.

A moins d'être complètement blasé, il faut bien reconnaître que ce troisième Prince of Persia surclasse de façon étonnante les précédents volets. Les développeurs y ont injecté le meilleur des deux premiers opus tout en trouvant des éléments nouveaux susceptibles d'insuffler un vrai caractère à cet épisode. Lorsqu'on découvre un titre aussi bouleversant que celui-ci, on ne peut qu'avoir envie de faire partager son enthousiasme à ceux qui risquent de passer à côté, ignorant à quel point ils pourraient le regretter.

The Two Thrones marks a fitting end to a fantastic trilogy. The plot ties up all the loose ends and should prove satisfying for fans of the series. Though some new gameplay mechanics have been introduced, such as the speed kill and the new tricks of the Dark Prince, The Two Thrones is still basically very similar to the other two games--if you didn't like those for some reason, this game's not likely to pull you in. But for those of us who love solving the environmental puzzles and seeing the beautiful environments that the series is known for, The Two Thrones delivers in spades.

Electronic Gaming Monthly (EGM)
The game still makes missteps; it forgets about checkpoints during some tricky trap areas, the new one-button attacks become hard to pull off when the camera goes haywire, and the annoying final boss battle is as fun as leaping around a giant toilet bowl in a snowstorm. Otherwise, it's nice to see a return of elegance to the series.

Les fans de la saga devraient être ravis de ce nouveau volet. Les ingrédients de base du filtre magique sont toujours présents et quelques ajouts bien sentis permettent de renouveler quelque peu la manière de jouer et évitent toute lassitude. Ceux qui n'ont jamais joué aux deux épisodes précédents peuvent se laisser charmer par ce jeu d'aventure réussi et riche, même s'ils perdront un peu de la profondeur du scénario.

Il aura fallu une année avant que la troisième aventure du Prince de Perse ne voit le jour. L'attente a cependant été plus que fructueuse puisque que Les Deux Royaumes reprend non seulement les bons ingrédients des opus précédents, mais arrive également à s'agrémenter d'une identité à part entière et réussi à nous convaincre sur la plupart des plans avec notamment une excellente prise en main. Seul l'aspect graphique aurait pu être davantage soigné mais cela n'entrave en rien cette fabuleuse aventure du Prince que l'on se délecte de voir sous un nouvel et terriblement délicieux aspect.

The Prince has returned and everyone who enjoyed Sands will no doubt be proud of the Prince once again. The adventure in its entirety is masterful accomplishment and gives us everything we could ask for from this franchise. It makes me almost giddy thinking about the Prince on the next generation hardware. Pick this sucka up!

Dans le jargon touffu de la critique jeux vidéo, un mot précieux suffit à résumer parfaitement ce nouveau Prince of Persia : efficace. Une manière polie de dire que cet épisode est très semblable aux précédents, mais que l'on y revient avec plaisir pour une dizaine d'heures de grand spectacle. Délestée d'une ambiance néo-gothique qui ne collait pas trop avec le personnage d'origine, Prince of Persia : Les deux Royaumes s'inscrit en fait dans la lignée des Sables du Temps, un ravissement pour les yeux qui ne pourra que séduire les fans de la première heure. Les morts discrètes, les acrobaties originales et la transformation en Dark Prince ouvrent de nouvelles perspectives dans le level design, même si l'effet nouveauté s'estompe un peu vite, au point de laisser sur leur faim les joueurs habitués à cette mécanique presque trop bien huilée.
