Actually, I’d say the blood and gore helped to increase the game’s audience, as Warrior Within sold more copies than Sands of Time did in retail.

There’s no doubt that SOT was the better designed game, but the violence had nothing to do with it; if you took out all the gore in WW it still would be inferior to its predecessor in every category. A game’s violence has nothing to do with the quality.

Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time didn’t need gore. I think the series lost some of its core audience when it started rockin’ the heavy metal and sprayin’ bodily fluids around.

It’s a good thing that I didn’t buy a Wii for violent games or I’d be disappointed.
