Prince of Persia: Warrior Within is the second entry in the rebooted cinematic platformer trilogy, bringing significant enhancements to the combat system, a large, continuous map, and one of the most hilarious tonal shifts in gaming history.
Story

86 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The game does not overwhelm with the number of characters - the characters are few in number, but each of them is well developed and has a clear impact on the plot.

73 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Prince of Persia: Warrior Within’s significant change in tone and presentation don’t detract from the brilliance of its gameplay.

49 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
In their own right, the soundtrack is actually excellent, and also varies across the locales and time periods the Prince traverses through.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
31 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Textures overall are sharper and more varied, especially on the characters, and there are a couple of rather impressive vistas to be enjoyed at several points in the Fortress of Time.
