@@illegalquantity I was just observing their aesthetics, sight and sound wise. I wasn't taking account on how similar or not they were from any of the other various ports.
MS-DOS is my favourite for me. Mostly because it is the one I played the most and I know the controls are spot-on. Very tense and exciting platforming action. Then, my second favourite would be the SNES version that kind of feels a bit like what PoP2 should have been.
Some releases definitely had superior potential with the hardware at hand, but often the artistic choices in rendering were rather poor, noisy/dirty, compared to the most minimalistic rendering of MS-DOS/PC. The animation also seems inferior in some of them. Game-boy's version and SNES versions were particularly impressive, although the character itself in SNES was a bit over-defined/rendered. Game-boy's even makes me wonder if that thing was more advanced in capabilities than the original 8-bit NES (non-S). How the torches light the scenario was quite a masterful contrast with the noisier over-rendering of some other releases, and better than the plain-flat rendering on PC.
The Commodore 64 homebrew is worth checking out. Prince of Persia was a revolutionary game. First time I saw a character running across the screen that looked like an actual person in a video game. Karateka had some smooth animation but this took it to a whole other level. The backgrounds and lighting were amazing. It had its fair share of impressive ports also. It’s tough to rank them all like you pulled off.
Apple II might seem the worst from today's standards but it was what they had for the Apple II and that was how Prince of Persia was born, plus it's quite reminiscent of the DOS graphics we all know and love. The cartoony graphics of GB and GBC don't really fit the aesthetics of a PoP game. The Amstrad CPC does look pretty choppy without all of the frames, and all the guards are the same colours. The SAM Coupe is more of a poor man's version of the DOS version, though I was surprised to learn how the makers painstakingly transfered each frame from the DOS version by hand. I would would rank the NES version dead bottom due to the hideous purple hue and the scrolling. The SMS/GG version is well textured and fluid for what it is, but doesn't make the best of the 64 colour palette. The Atari ST has a bit too much blue and yellow, but otherwise makes good use of shading. Pity they only had one colour scheme for the guards. In fact one of the wall textures of that ST port made it into the Genesis version. Out of all the Japanese versions, I'd say the Sega CD version is easy on the eyes. The Mac graphics are very crisp and clear. Undeniably the Gensis graphics are among the best with a fabulous use of rich colour and texture, but once again only one colour scheme for the guards. The SNES takes a different direction, but really outdoes itself, maybe a bit more than the Genesis version. I don't really count anything that reuses the Sands of Time graphics to be impressive or fit to be among the ports, it just feels non-authentic.
A lot of ports try to upgrade the look of the game since the Apple II was some pretty limited hardware, but since the original used actual rotoscoping for character animations, the graphics of these ports can be quite a mixed bag. Fortunately, they mostly knew not to mess with the actual game design.
I played the Master System version the most and i really enjoyed it. The animation was fantastic and was very smooth, easily my favourite 8-Bit version of Prince of Persia.
@@Cyberbrickmaster1986 I played the Snes version a bit on an emulator but never on the console. It looked very good and played great, maybe another revisit is due at some point. Cheers.
Hey, even with the worst graphics considering all the versions that were made for this classic version, the original Apple II version has, still, one of the best and most advanced graphics displayed on the system. It's a miracle for such an old hardware.
I first played this game on PC-DOS, then Sega Genesis/Megadrive, but could only beat it on the modern 3D version (played on an android phone rather than consoles). There's a lot of nostalgia associated with the PC version, but the modern remake is my favorite when it comes to Graphics!
PC98, X68000 and FM Towns version looks the best. Arsys really gave the game a unique visual style. It even preceded the way more primitive DOS port! The Macintosh version is a close second place.
Ranking the Apple II version-- the original version-- of Prince of Persia as last on the list isn't quite fair: especially when people consider that this was one of the first games to use rotoscoping animation so that the movents and combat felt more realistic for the time. The Apple II version might not have aged well by today's (somewhat ridiculously high) standards, but it served as the foundation for the many subsequent ports and remakes.
The ST version is surprisingly gorgeous given the 16 colour limit. The artist makes it look like there's an actual light source. I just assumed the Amiga version was as ST port but it seems the Amiga version was ported from the pc version
I grew up with the Sega Master System version. It's still my favourite version to play. Graphics wise it's not as spectacular as the others, but I love its atmosphere. The musical jingle when you get the sword or when Shadowman appears always sounded great to me.
@@azuredragonofnether5433 Maybe on par with the Japanese computers (PC98, X68000, FM Towns)... it's what the Amiga should have been by then in my opinion.
It is subjective honestly another plus for it's graphics is it appears to have more animation compared to some others, at least among the other 8 bit computer/consoles versions.
For me its always gonna be a hard choice between Sega CD and SNES. Sega CD was the first version I played, but SNES is like a remix, with new levels as well as a bunch of reworked ones. But the Sega CD has that music and those anime cutscenes so... I dunno.... MS-DOS is a contender but I tend to feel like that one is for purists who want an idea what the Apple II was like but without having to get an actual Apple II. But its funny to me how the Prince kinda looks like just some dork in older versions and doesn't look arabian until the versions that give him a Turban and vest.
Gotta go with the SNES version here. Not only did it extend each level, but the soundtrack was awesome, plenty of boss battles and instead 12 levels? You got 20. It was bar none the definitive way to experience the game.
I felt nostalgic. The one I played was the NEC 98 version. This is the first time I've noticed that the level design of the SNES version has been changed.🤔
I’m quite fond of the Apple II original. Yeah it’s simplistic and there’s only, what, three colors to work with, but it has a charm to it. Best looking one is Game Gear imo
If I pick my top best ports for POP, it’ll be: For Computers it’s Amiga and DOS. For handhelds it’s GBC and Game Gear. For 16 but consoles it’s SNES and Genesis.
4:55 Um, _WHAT‽_ These next few are the WORST ones of all with those nauseatingly rough textures. 🤢 DOS (and the identical Amiga) are my _PoP_ due to nostalgia but the Mac looks so clean and the SNES is top-notch with the cave and the bumpb-mapped 3D bricks. 👍 (I like the blueish-purple color of the NES, but it just doesn't fit in this game.)
Those textures are in no way "nauseatingly rough." They add an extra layer of grime and grit to the game's aesthetic, so there's no need for that emoji. And in what way doesn't the blueish-purple color of the NES not fit in this game? You can't just say things like that without a proper explanation and expect people to swallow it down with no problem. I'd argue that that color emphasizes the mystical, Middle Eastern setting of the game.
more Textures Colors and clothing on the main Character doesn't mean better graphics for me, the PC DOS version is so CLEAN and TIDY and uses the ORIGINAL DESIGN for the Hero.. i like it a Lot better than the others saving the original appleII
The Mac version came out later than most of those versions. The Amiga ECS, Atari ST and DOS VGA versions were limited in colors but Amiga AGA, Atari STe and DOS VGA versions done when the Mac one was done could have looked as good.
For me, the worst is Gameboy and the best is FM-towns. SNES is good but it's like a bit different. Apple II is also fine, and MS-DOS is my favorite among all series.
Yes! Arsys really gave the game its own visual style. It looks fantastic. The Mac version was somewhat of a downgrade by taking more inspiration from the DOS port, sadly.
@@deemster4249 There is a speedhack for the Mac version that makes the game run at MS-DOS speed. That particular version is pretty close to the top for me.
I@m confused about Amiga graphics chosen as being inferior to pc graphics. The only difference is that Amiga version has higher resolution (320x256) than the pc one (320x200). The assets used and number of colors look the same.
As a reminder, graphics don't always equal quality. But I'm glad to see the Super Nintendo version de-thrown the Genesis version, as it's a far better game, made by a company who had a lot of quality titles back in the day. And believe me when I say: "Back in the day".
Theres no worst in this world. This term is too subjective to begin with. All of them have their pro and cons. Each game have its limited graphics, but give a experience for each everyone who played at least one of their port once. Graphics doesn't really matter at all. Like if I would play the original Apple ][ version, I wouldn't mind. If I would play the Mac one, I wouldn't mind. If I would play the Sega CD one, I wouldn't mind. If it is still playable, I would play it without thinking about the graphics. Each POP give their charm and that's the most matter.
Macintosh looks superior just by using PofP2 design but the NEC and FMTowns version looked like a nice stylised cartoon and more visually interesting despite just being a downgrade from Macintosh
I prefer the Amiga version, but I also like the original Apple II, Turbografx CD, Sharp X68000, and Sega Genesis versions. I like it the Xbox360/PS3 version too, but this is a totally different game in 3D. It is not comparable to the 2D versions. This is my order of preference from the worst to the best! J2ME -- Simply awful Macintosh -- This is terrible, sterile, looks like a flash game Gameboy -- Oh no! I don't like monochrome Amstrad CPC -- Omg, I went blind! Gameboy Color -- Too low resolution Game Gear -- I hate that ground Master System -- See the previous one Apple II - The original one. Nice minimalist graphics NES - Weird colors, but it's not that bad. The screen flashings are really bad. NEC PC-98 -- Ugly FM Towns -- Ugly (a bit better than the NEC) Sam Coupe - Quite correct Super Nintendo -- The graphics are very diferent, but it is not a bad one Sega CD -- Shame, the Genesis version is better (despite that Sega CD is also a Genesis plus a CD drive) Turbografx CD -- It looks quite good Sharp X68000 - Looks nice, the best one from the group of this graphics style Sega Genesis -- The best consol version Atari ST -- The Amiga version plus some eye candy (which didn't make it any better) PC DOS - Almost the Amiga version, but the game area is narrower. Amiga -- The perfect one! Xbox360/PS3 -- I like this one too, but this is in another league
I grew up with the Macintosh version (my first video game ever when I was 4 circa) also I got the Game Boy Color version when I was 7 and then grabbed the xbox360 version back in 2009
In my opinion, the Macintosh Color is the machine that has the prettiest version. Too bad I have no way to emulate it. On the other hand, I don't like the graphics of the SNES version; yes... I know it's an unpopular opinion.
I didn't know there were so many releases. I thought it was simply above the hardware capabilities of something like Apple ][, despite Karateka being similar. I thought Karateka already squeezed all of Apple ]['s hardware juices, and something more elaborate and longer like PoP required at least a PC or something at a similar level/generation of hardware.
The Macintosh version is the nicest, it sticks to the original style, yet 2x as sharp. Too bad you don't show the opening sequence, as that should be part of a proper comparison. I think the Amstrad CPC is really good on a CRT, unlike emulation, and also has the opening sequence done way better than say DOS. So it deserves a higher position. The Mega Drive version I dislike, it looks like it had sex with Xenon Megablast or GODS.
The NES version has a very saturated blueish-purple color which I like but just doesn't fit in this game. Also, the NES version has different level layouts and fewer levels (or at least that's what I remember from playing it many years ago 🤔).
Eu gostaria de ver o pessoal jogar os jogos de prince of Pérsia similares ao jogo original do SNES... só que mais difícil...já procurei e não achei um gamer que jogue 😮😮
ufff, te lloverán los comentarios con disertaciones sobre cual es mejor, y tal. TE ha faltado la versión de spectrum (aunque no sea la oficial, es rusa), o se salía del top 50 peores?? Xd. Para mi, ni FMtowns, ni x68000 deberían de estar tan arriba, demasiados pixeles, luego te cansas cuando los juegas, es mejor tenerlos un poco flateados y borrosos. Nunca entenderé como hicieron la version de segaCD, sin contar con la de megadrive, son totalmente distintas, se enloquecieron con el manga Xd. Yo me quedo con la versión de megadrive, las 2 están muy bien, pero son siempre los pequeños detalles, en megadrive, tienen luces volumétricas, es decir, las antorchas reflejan la luz, en SNES no, en SNES el personaje, aparece demasiado pixelado para mi gusto, no se le pueden definir los biceps, y luego moverte como un locomía con la cabeza y barbilla hacia arriba, se parece a julio salinas cuando arrancaba. Los escenarios en SNES , auinque son detallados en las catacumbas, fuera de ellas no los tienen, son repetitivos sin decoro, en MD siguen manteniendo los detalles y es fiel al original, ( tema de espejo y respeto a los niveles), no se q manía tienen en NES de cambiarlo todo Xd. Para mi. 1. Megadrive 2.spectrum Xd 3. SNES.
Sí, ya he recibido varias quejas, como habrás visto, pero quería experimentar con otros formatos. A mí también me gustaba más el de Mega Drive, pero hice una encuesta hace unos días y salió más votado el de SNES. Conozco el de Spectrum y creo que hay alguna otra versión no oficial, pero he querido centrarme en los oficiales. Investigaré si hay más clones y quizás haga un vídeo dedicado a ellos.
The Mac version is technically more advanced but I am not keen on that style, it gives everything a flat appearance. It's pretty, but doesn't feel right. The SNES has very detailed and colourful graphics, but it has a pixelated appearance, particularly on the player character, which I find off-putting. I don't like the sound either.

The SNES and Amiga version both look and sound quite nice. The Mac version stands out in that it looks like a cell shaded cartoon.
Yeah, Mac is the best computer version, but I'd rather play on console.. For me, best console versions are Turbografx CD/SEGA CD tho!

The NEC also had the best soundtrack of them all imo. Both crisp and harmonic in a way not replicated in other systems.
MS-DOS and Amiga 1990 is my all time favorite. I played MS-DOS version the most.
I have a feeling that the graphics of the Amstrad CPC version could've possibly been ported over from the Atari ST version.
You have a good fantasy ;)

Nope, it's actually completely different!

Probably should have labeled the PC DOS one VGA, it also wasn't the one originally available for the PC, which is conspicuously absent.
I think that earlier version had the Prince with green skin and dark red hair, making him look like an alien (or a very sickly and ill man).

SNES is literally a remake of the game, with amazing extra game mechanics and whatnot.

It's basically the version that gave POP2 it's stylistic direction.
I prefer the Amiga version, but I also like the original Apple II, Turbografx CD, Sharp X68000, and Sega Genesis versions. I like it the Xbox360/PS3 version too, but this is a totally different game in 3D. It is not comparable to the 2D versions. This is my order of preference from the worst to the best!
J2ME -- Simply awful

Gameboy -- Oh no! I don't like monochrome

Gameboy Color -- Too low resolution
Game Gear -- I hate that ground
Master System -- See the previous one
Apple II - The original one. Nice minimalist graphics
NES - Weird colors, but it's not that bad. The screen flashings are really bad.
NEC PC-98 -- Ugly
FM Towns -- Ugly (a bit better than the NEC)
Sam Coupe - Quite correct
Super Nintendo -- The graphics are very diferent, but it is not a bad one
Sega CD -- Shame, the Genesis version is better (despite that Sega CD is also a Genesis plus a CD drive)
Turbografx CD -- It looks quite good
Sharp X68000 - Looks nice, the best one from the group of this graphics style
Sega Genesis -- The best consol version
Atari ST -- The Amiga version plus some eye candy (which didn't make it any better)
PC DOS - Almost the Amiga version, but the game area is narrower.
Amiga -- The perfect one!
Xbox360/PS3 -- I like this one too, but this is in another league

In my opinion, the Macintosh Color is the machine that has the prettiest version. Too bad I have no way to emulate it. On the other hand, I don't like the graphics of the SNES version; yes... I know it's an unpopular opinion.
I didn't know there were so many releases. I thought it was simply above the hardware capabilities of something like Apple ][, despite Karateka being similar. I thought Karateka already squeezed all of Apple ]['s hardware juices, and something more elaborate and longer like PoP required at least a PC or something at a similar level/generation of hardware.
Beyond the capabilities of the Apple II? That's the original platform.
The Macintosh version is the nicest, it sticks to the original style, yet 2x as sharp. Too bad you don't show the opening sequence, as that should be part of a proper comparison. I think the Amstrad CPC is really good on a CRT, unlike emulation, and also has the opening sequence done way better than say DOS. So it deserves a higher position. The Mega Drive version I dislike, it looks like it had sex with Xenon Megablast or GODS.
Lmao the prince in the GBC version looks like he has a brown paper bag over his head.......
How was Apple II the worst? Wasn't it revolutionary at the time?
C64 & Atari XL/XE ports ? 🙃
Also the BBC Micro version.
I'd swap places between NES and Master System/Game Gear versions. NES version looks very similar to Amiga/DOS versions.
The NES version has a very saturated blueish-purple color which I like but just doesn't fit in this game. Also, the NES version has different level layouts and fewer levels (or at least that's what I remember from playing it many years ago 🤔).
@@I.____.....__...__, NES version have all 12 stages and they was modified to fit with the system's capabilities.
What about the C64 version?
IMHO, best graphics are Turbografx-CD/SEGA CD (console-wise)
Hola retrosutra es el mejor video que has echo con prince of persia la mejor version es macinstosh
I played it in VGA mode on amstrad pc 286 12" monitor black and white "The pc dos version"
The PC DOS version is the defintive version end of story
Eu gostaria de ver o pessoal jogar os jogos de prince of Pérsia similares ao jogo original do SNES... só que mais difícil...já procurei e não achei um gamer que jogue 😮😮
セガジェネシスで剣を拾う迄にお陀仏になってしまうので泣きそうになりました。
Where is the C64 version?
Also the Commodore 64 and Atari 8-bit versions.
Why on earth does the Genesis version look 1000 times better than the Sega CD version?!
As it was released a year later Sega CD version is still much better though gameplay wise but can't compete with the Apple II.
The most irony that the genesis have the worst gameplay of all. That's I heard once.
No habia una version de android tambien?
Wasn't there one for Xbox too?
Atari 800XL, but is not here 😢😢😢
Super Nintendo version is the best to me. They ever added some levels . . .
Fantastique cette vidéo merci beaucoup pour ce let's compare ma version préférée... Difficile à dire 🤣🤣🤣 celle du PC-9801 peut être 😎🕹️
Snes is pretty but the best is Sega cd imo.
BK-0011M version is absent
GG and MS look better than Amiga
Snes for the Win!
ufff, te lloverán los comentarios con disertaciones sobre cual es mejor, y tal.
TE ha faltado la versión de spectrum (aunque no sea la oficial, es rusa), o se salía del top 50 peores?? Xd.
Para mi, ni FMtowns, ni x68000 deberían de estar tan arriba, demasiados pixeles, luego te cansas cuando los juegas, es mejor tenerlos un poco flateados y borrosos.
Nunca entenderé como hicieron la version de segaCD, sin contar con la de megadrive, son totalmente distintas, se enloquecieron con el manga Xd.
Yo me quedo con la versión de megadrive, las 2 están muy bien, pero son siempre los pequeños detalles, en megadrive, tienen luces volumétricas, es decir, las antorchas reflejan la luz, en SNES no, en SNES el personaje, aparece demasiado pixelado para mi gusto, no se le pueden definir los biceps, y luego moverte como un locomía con la cabeza y barbilla hacia arriba, se parece a julio salinas cuando arrancaba. Los escenarios en SNES , auinque son detallados en las catacumbas, fuera de ellas no los tienen, son repetitivos sin decoro, en MD siguen manteniendo los detalles y es fiel al original, ( tema de espejo y respeto a los niveles), no se q manía tienen en NES de cambiarlo todo Xd.
Para mi.
1. Megadrive
2.spectrum Xd
3. SNES.
Sí, ya he recibido varias quejas, como habrás visto, pero quería experimentar con otros formatos. A mí también me gustaba más el de Mega Drive, pero hice una encuesta hace unos días y salió más votado el de SNES. Conozco el de Spectrum y creo que hay alguna otra versión no oficial, pero he querido centrarme en los oficiales. Investigaré si hay más clones y quizás haga un vídeo dedicado a ellos.
How strange that Amiga is identical to MS-DOS, but so different from the ST. Anyway, Mac wipes the floor with all 3 of them as it runs in 256 colours.
Sadly there are no Amiga AGA or Atari STe or PC VGA versions with more colours, even though they are possible.
@@timlocke3159 The PC version shown is the VGA version.
@@remnantoftheeye5580 Obviously they didn't use VGA mode 13h with 256 colors.
The Mac version is technically more advanced but I am not keen on that style, it gives everything a flat appearance. It's pretty, but doesn't feel right. The SNES has very detailed and colourful graphics, but it has a pixelated appearance, particularly on the player character, which I find off-putting. I don't like the sound either.
No way Atari ST version looks better than Master System!
Hate that Sega Genesis port with lots of unnecessary artistic details!!
Apple ][ - original
DOS - remaster
SNES - remake
