10 Video Game Cash-Grabs We Can't Believe They Tried

10. Prince Of Persia: Epilogue

To the disappointment of many, 2008's Prince of Persia wasn't as awe-inspiring as we hoped. But this reboot did get a lot of people talking, since it ended with a massive cliffhanger. As the unnamed prince does battle with Ahriman, Elika gives up her life to seal away the devilish deity. Ever the hero, the Prince uses the Tree of Life's power to resurrect her. But by undoing Elika sacrifice, Ahriman returns, blanketing the area in darkness, including our heroic duo.

Because of this abrupt ending, gamers weren't sure what to make of it. Was Elika's sacrifice in vain? Did Ahriman take over the world? Are our heroes alive?

Well, the good news is all these questions were answered (kind of) in the expansion pack, Epilogue. The bad news is Ubisoft expected gamers to pay for it. Just to reiterate - Gamers, who had already bought Prince of Persia, had to pay more to see the ending.

Although the DLC came equipped with new areas, combat manoeuvres, and enemies, it wasn't worth it, since it's done and dusted after a measly 90 minutes.

At least you get that ending, right?

Not really. When the credits roll, Ahriman is still alive, and preparing to exact his revenge on the Prince. So, if you purchased Epilogue, you paid extra money to see pretty much the same non-ending.
