Yes, I remember my old PC with a "normal" sound system was just screeching and did not deliver deep tones as here. A note: the music composer is Francis Mercher, father of Jordan - the software owner.
I played this on an old IBM shitbox as a kid and if you don't have the sound card the game actually has an alternative 8-bit soundtrack which is what I heard on that machine. Because I played it with that as a kid I find it really charming and nostalgic. The sound the chompers make is weirdly intimidating.
47:12 this part is really dope! parts like this is why I used to love platformers, nowadays you'd rarely find a platformer with this much creativity and surprises
People in 1990 could not imagine that every movement of computer game's character could be so smooth and realistic. Jordan Mechner could:) love this game. The music is fantastic
One of the game that I got the chance to played in younger days on computer and never beat the game yet 🤣. Out of curiosity for what its like after stage 11. So, I am coming for this video ^^. SCHLAUCHI is doing a great job here with the entire playthrough 👏👏👏. A great Prince Of Persia playthrough here, World of Longplays 👍.
36/36s : The first AC alpha aplha would-be project supposedly had the Prince instead of Altaïr as main protagonist. But it's only a rumour coming from unidentified Ubisoft insiders so...
Not exactly... Ever heard of a game called "Exile"? If not, you'd better check it out. Some details of the plot are so identical that it can be considered copy/paste.
SaitohYatate who cares about the plot? Gameplay is the key in video games. AC games still live from the Prince of Persia movement+fighting basic concept.
i took me a looong time to beat this game back in the day But i did it Luv Prince of Persia the sound efx and graphics were massive for a 1990 PC game! it's nice to know that it was happy ending after all :)
An hour was still a long time as a kid, but the pressure. Oh god the pressure. I suppose now I can just watch this instead of putting myself through the time limit stress ;)
And for some reason I remember fighting jafar was like block block block block block cool I finally hit him once block block block block block block...
You know, on level 3 there is a way of getting the life potion 2ice. All you need to do is go and get it, then get beyond the gate and commit suicide, then go and open the exit door. Then before you leave the level, go all the way back and get it a 2nd time. Also there is a level you sometimes see in the credits that you can't play. I used to have the original 1989 floppy version of this game and you have to play the game 2ice to finish it, on the 2nd run some of the levels are slightly different, such as level 6 where the whole in front of the gig soldier is smaller and if you hand onto the edge of it, he simply walks over you sending you plummeting to your death. Sometime there is a potions level after level 1, a security level!
48:40 And he beat the mouse to the finish. And that mouse had a much harder time getting out of Jaffar's dungeon. I'd like someone out there to mod this game so you can play as that mouse.
this looks.... IN.CREDIBLY difficult! without even having played it, you can tell the controls are wonky in that you HAVE to return to a certain state or face a certain direction before doing a new 'thing', all the while the gate timings seem stupidly and unwarrantedly hard in some places. oh.mai.GAWDDDDD i'm glad for youtube (and more modern game handling) where i never have to even _try_ to waste the last vestiges of my happiness on such a game. this is coming from someone who's played the original pitfall and pitfall II as well, which are ridiculous exercises in futility themselves as far as game handling... :O
The Music, cut scenes and ending are better on the Genesis CD and TG-16 CD versions but the sound effects are better on the PC Version, The Graphics are a little more sharp on the PC Version.
I think 2d style gaming is so much more fun than this 3d nonsense today! all too much shoot me ups with ps3 or ps4, bring back 2d with a modern twist I say!
Wait a minute.... my info may be incorrect here, but the original PoP was made single-handedly by Jordan Mechner.... sooooooo, the F is that list on the credits screen?
In the Mega Drive / Genesis Version, during the PC's fifth level, you can pretend the Dark Prince to steal the large health potion and use it for yourself. Is it also possible on the PC version?
You definitely needed a sound card for this game
Yes, I remember my old PC with a "normal" sound system was just screeching and did not deliver deep tones as here. A note: the music composer is Francis Mercher, father of Jordan - the software owner.
You bet! 😄
A sound blaster (or compatible ..)

Those are some very realistic drinking sounds for a 1990 PC game.
ug ug ug ug
Sound Blaster support
It's actualy 1989.
@@bogdantanasescu3793 DOS 1990
Yeah, Jordan recorded his 15-year old brother when he was drinking booze to make it sound realistic.
Let me tell you, this prince doesn't skip any drinks. Even the poisoned ones.
For sure, he likes a good booze.
Wrong. He missed some at least in the second and the fifth level. :D
*~Persian **_NRG_** Potion~*
.. there's a Maniak Loose in the PaLace ! .. jus Runnin' Around Fighting , Drinkin' and Trying to KidNap the SuLtan's Daughter :-S .. ;-)
It's totally safe to drink potions you randomly find in the dungeons, right?
This game is a timeless classic!
Adlib music in intro is very atmospheric, FM synthesis as its best.
47:12 this part is really dope! parts like this is why I used to love platformers, nowadays you'd rarely find a platformer with this much creativity and surprises
Last time I tried to do that part the ghost kept the sword in its hands and killed me!
whats so special about it lol? days today are much better and its a fact
and so mysterious
@@KARTIKEYA007
Back in 1989, it would have been something special for a platformer.
Really?? @@KARTIKEYA007 actually a lot of visuals but when about THIS creativity.. lacking.
2:52 I swear these slabs played mario bros' theme's intro
20:15 very thirsty . Great vid btw. I could watch this game for hours because of the good memories.
Always loved that game, and was very happy to complete it back in the day. The combat was deeper than it first seemed.
One of the best games ever!
I feel like I'm having a heart attack every time you make a jump in this game.
Publisher: "All right, so how hard is this game going to be?"
Jordan Mechner: "Yes."
People in 1990 could not imagine that every movement of computer game's character could be so smooth and realistic. Jordan Mechner could:) love this game. The music is fantastic
Jordan rotoscoped the Prince's movements from recording his brother. True story!
Such a classic game
Holy shit I remember playin this on the SNES in tha early 90s,it was hard az f..k but I loved playin it, never finished it though, the good old dayz
Snes port is a different beast...
Played this game on my Sega Master System for hours on end as a kid amazing game never did quite manage to finish it though.
I love the silent era vibe of the cutscenes.
Very effective. Show, don't tell.

Strange to think that if this hadn't existed then neither would Assassin's Creed.
fact ?
Well, I wished recent AC wouldn't exist in the first place. It became a dumbed down piss poor franchise.

That rat/mouse/mice cemented my love for rodents forever
My childhood memories....
This game was and still is fantastic.
26:25 so much for the usefulness of the floating potion. You just needed one extra health bar to pass on it
jumping off that hight will kill you instantly
Such a classic, but so much trial-and-error!
An hour was still a long time as a kid, but the pressure. Oh god the pressure. I suppose now I can just watch this instead of putting myself through the time limit stress ;)
Lo mejor como se extraña esas épocas
I played the one with the crappier sound effects. I still have them embedded in my brain.

*MASTERPIECE!!*
*SO GOOD MEMORIES...*
I love how the first design of the prince is just a european guy in a pyjama
Lawrence of Arabia
How to download this game?
@@HeitorSpecianhe royalty?
Such a classic!!
oh god, done in 00:49:37. I fell to my doom so many times. Those dam spikes! I think it took me 49 days to finish it. :)
it all started here the classic Prince of Persia to Prince of Persia the forgotten sends ...
I went till Level 8 of this game. Could never go any further.
when it comes to the chopping blades, i'll be dead if i play this game!
still the best game
42:00 why would you do this
great game classic of classic
47:05
*_OOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHH_*
I just realized. 1:20 is the same hour glass Jaffar used to try to kill Princess Jasmine in Disney's Aladdin
I remember playing this and always freezing with the guillotine doors. I never got to rescue the princess :(.
You are a bad prince
Oyun eski ama çok güzel ve etkileyici bir oyun yıllar geçmesine rağmen kendinden bıktırmıyor
Better than the reboot.
Rubén Freire : And even better than the Amiga version. Except for the sound.
OMG i love this game but never finish it... i stayed after a great swordman and drank something to slow down my fall.
My only reason for math studies after school playing prince as a regard.
Very skillful :O
By the way this guy runs you'd never think he can do sick parkour 😹
Me and my older sister used to challenge ourselves for who beats this game faster... good old times.
I rember prince of persia i plays this game for the lssr time in 2007
this looks....

never saw anyone completing this game, this player is a real pro
Vortex Save states make anyone look good.
Haha yes you are correct, I forgot about that : )
Vortex But you are right though, Schlauchi is one of the best players on here. He at least knows what he's doing in any game he plays.
difficalt this game and i love this game
Dark Soul of the old days
47:14 love it
Now, play the SNES and Apple II versions!
Masterful player
41:52 dangerous jump.
hahah When I played the game in the early 90's the guy was Persian and not a young blond Donald trump looking guy.
Mandela effect? Lol
Maybe he's talking about the snes version.
14:26 she is lying on the bed and waiting prince :D We fully understood the story
I played it in black and white, not in colour.
the apple2 version is amazing and made in 1989
The Music, cut scenes and ending are better on the Genesis CD and TG-16 CD versions but the sound effects are better on the PC Version, The Graphics are a little more sharp on the PC Version.
Remind me of Flashback Quest of Identity on genesis
principe de persia edad de los juegos de infancia hasta pasar a la final de los levels rescatar a la princesa
First I thought that was Aladdin. 😂
Buraka Ninja even I did think this that it's alladin
Only part make me think That he is Aladdin is Antagonist named Jaffar
@@majorblitz3846 It's kinda the same setting too haha.
It could be because they never named the prince!
@@MKD1101 It can't be cause the prince is from PERSIA!!!
Very good
It's easy to see why Pressure-plate based security systems fell out of favor.
yep I heard a opl soundblaster
47:14 WTF How tha hell did U figure that out, back in tha day B4 TH-cam and Internet no f..kin way woz that gettin sussed out anytime soon
I never figured it out. To be fair hurting your mirror image hurts you, so fighting is not an option.
I think 2d style gaming is so much more fun than this 3d nonsense today! all too much shoot me ups with ps3 or ps4, bring back 2d with a modern twist I say!
Mark Heath Go play Salt & Sanctuary
40:01 asshole level design, that switch is hidden without a clue
you kinda can differentiate between a regular tile and an open switch, they’re higher up than regular tiles
10/10
Ugh there was always a glitch so it locked up when the princess heard the door open
I creator of all Prince of Persia
THE game - as far as I am concerned.
wowow
what a fucking hard game
Wait a minute.... my info may be incorrect here, but the original PoP was made single-handedly by Jordan Mechner.... sooooooo, the F is that list on the credits screen?
Adam Szell He programmed it for the Apple II. This is the PC port.
The apple 2 version is real makeing in 1989 i play dad two
Like
Is it just me or does the prince look like Donald Trump?
Lol u r right
19:03 feet metal
Seventeen minutes? I wouldn't last seventeen seconds.
In the Mega Drive / Genesis Version, during the PC's fifth level, you can pretend the Dark Prince to steal the large health potion and use it for yourself. Is it also possible on the PC version?
*prevent from stealing?
No, it's not possible on PC version.
Yeah!!!On Sega Game Gear too,i remember that.
trial and error: the game
Magistral plataform game
juegaso
I think the issue with this game was that it was really hard to control the character. Much more awkward than other platform games I know.
No começo é assim mesmo depois vai pegando o jeito
Level 3rd 10:15 were my favorite
Can someone tell me how to download the game on windows (without DosBox emulator)
The prince looks like Donald Trump.
Holy shit, he does!
The man with the baby hands
I was seriously thinking the same thing
Younger, thinner and in pajamas though
I'm sure to Jordan Mechner Trump was his hero.
Would the game call President of USA, Eh?
James and Mike should play the NES version
Ellen Ripley @47:47, didn't watch it all, huh.
Had to go run an errand, why?
Ellen Ripley Just messing around. (・ิω・ิ)
