One of the greatest adventure franchises of all time has finally stepped into the 21st century. Prince of Persia: Sands of Time is not the first attempt to bring the popular series into the third dimension, but it is by far the best. With sword in hand, you must solve the mystery of the Sands of Time, which claimed the lives of your father and nearly everyone else in the Sultan's Palace. Each room offers a new puzzle to solve, each Sand Creature another challenging battle.

It's quite easy to get lost in the Sultan's Palace and lose sight of what to do and where to go. When you find yourself trapped or continually beaten down by your enemies, it's time for a little help from your friends at IGN Guides. We've mastered the Sands of Time and know every jump to make, every trick to best this castle of sand. Inside you'll find:

To find this goodie, you'll need to start from the Above the Baths save, once you have your new sword. Go down the stairwell that leads to a large carvernous area. After you make it through this area, you'll end up in a small room with Farah. There's a lever and gear in the center of the room. Turn it cockwise until it clicks twice. Both doors in the room are now closed, but you have also opened a secret door that you cannot see. Go to the wall directly opposite the entrance. Swing until you find a spot on the wall where your sword doesn't spark. Strike this area a few times to reveal a hidden room. Enter to unlock the game, which is now available from the main menu.

Start a new game with any profile. On the balcony where the game starts, do not go into the palace's room and instead, push in the left joystick and enter GREEN, BLUE, YELLOW, RED, YELLOW, GREEN, BLUE, RED (A, X, Y, B, Y, A, X, B).

Beat the game and Prince of Persia 1 becomes available in the Extra Features menu.
