    I just installed the game yesterday and i can't find any video settings. I tried using Launcher instead of the normal exe but i don't get the 3 options, it goes straight to the game..wat should i do?

    Last I checked, you can't that much since Prince of Persia uses a special type of graphics similar to cell shading so it's not exactly 3d and therefore the graphics cannot be changed. After all, you couldn't change the graphics of those old 2d games much could you? lol :p

    I might be wrong though, but I lent Prince of Persia to my friend and that's what she told me.

    Yeah try changing the resolution. That's probably the other big thing which affects performance other than settings.

    As far as I remember... there's not much option for you to change anyway, as suggested you might as well change the solution for the moment.
