Prince of Persia

Some affairs are multi-game challenges of star-crossed affection while others are small windows into a part of the relation that allows us to deeply understand a character or group of characters that much more, but one thing is for sure: These are the 10 Best Relationships in Video Games.

Jordan Mechner is perhaps best known for his achievements in the video game world; he kicked-off his career in the '80s when he single-handedly created the best-selling video games Karateka and Prince of Persia -- the latter of course spawning several sequels (selling over 17 million games), and a Jerry Bruckheimer-produced movie, Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time.

The sands of time have gone south for the Prince of Persia, as the franchise has been temporarily shelved. The move, however, does not signal an end to the Jordan Mechner created hero.
