I am having a LOT of difficulties with a part on Prince of Persia: Sands of Time on Ps2. I think it is either the first or second boss, in the beginning of the game, also after the first major puzzle when the guy commands you to fit the cylinders into their respected slot, the prince's female sidekick is trying to fight off 5 really difficult sand people, and in the cut scene, you arrive on the balcony while she is fending them off with arrows. You then jump down, down in the middle of the action. There is a one bigger guy with a big sword who blocks ALL of your shots. Then, he and the other people beat your down with their swords. After killing one of the sand people, more seem to appear. I can't even get a drink of water in the back. How do I do this. If you need any more clarification, please ask. Thanks

I was going to get the game, but I dont like puzzle games so no

I had the first one, so I couldn't help ya with this one...sorry

Move in close to the princess. Get the staggering soldiers. Keep out of the way of the Prince's father. Somersault a lot. Use the pillar corridor. Put your sword away and run. Get some water. Rearm and continue. Change direction. Use the middle area. When wou have blue and red combinations go for the blue. Take their sand. Try to keep topped up. Maintain the pace. Defend only for a moment. When the princess calls go to her aid. Do not be cornered. Do not fall. Do not follow up if you have someone behind. Get where you have only two soldiers and the prince's father. Be extra careful here and be bold. When the prince's father alone stands against you, get water. He gives you time. He will be easy to bring down then.
It took ages for this to happen but it is very satisfying.
