However, the extra dungeons... are quite a pain, and a few players have bypassed them by [[BonusFeatureFailure glitching them]], due the fact that they have [[HitboxDissonance poor collision detection]]. Quite a shame, because the Statue Chamber looks amazing.

** The entire opening can count for the blood-themed loading screens, very hastily-animated opening cutscenes, Hard Rock music, the aforementioned obligatory swearing, and the BadGirlComic theming of Shadee captivating the men on both her ship and the Prince's (including the Prince himself). Once the Prince makes it onto the island the game never quite reaches these extremes until the GoldenEnding when the Prince sexually claims Kaileena as his prize.
** The Prince will shout and yell with full rage and anger whenever his weapons hit a target. This includes minor enemies like crows that are almost not worth the bother, and [[DieChairDieThis includes inanimate props like chairs, barrels and weapon racks you're destroying for Sands and weapons]].
** Despite being the rage-fueled emo-gothic badass that he is in ''Warrior Within'', the Prince still uses most of the actions from ''The Sands of Time'' with unchanged animations, including the dainty wall runs and having to balance clumsily on the horizontal beams.

** Much like the other two games in the trilogy, the [[UpdatedReRelease HD port]] of ''Warrior Within'' is locked to 30fps and is missing many of the graphical features from the PC release, including the blooming, and introduces graphical errors like Kaileena's physics-driven cloth being darker than the rest of her. About the only advantage you get are widescreen (which can be easily modded in on PC) and better environmental textures.
