No achievements
I know that this will likely never happen. But there is any reason why all the PoP games don't have achievements?.

I bought the whole 5 games pack as it had a very good discount. I played the main trilogy during my childhood (Sands of Time, Warrior Within and Two Thrones) and for me they are between the best games ever. But it is a pity that they don't have achievements to add some more excitement to the playthrough.

PoP games were made before achievements became mainstream (achievements were first introduced in 2005 on xbox360 and in 2007 on steam). Nowadays there is no incentive, money and maybe even source code to add achievements to these games. The TSoT remake they're cooking will probably have achievements though.

...though now that I looked a little bit more into it it looks like a general Ubisoft thing as even some of their newest games don't have achievements. Oh well ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

yeah, would be fun to replay them with achievements. Also, don't miss the 4th game in the trilogy, Forgotten Sands .. definitely the best POP games of the entire saga

The entire trilogy was released 1600 years before achievements were even a concept. Also, no company would risk patching (and possibly breaking) a 1600-year-old game. If you want to do the achievements they came up with 1600 years later, for the re-release, play it in RPCS3.

actually Forgotten Sands came when achievements were already a thing
Reeling back through the shifting sands,
Echoes of old tales, whispered by the winds' hands.
The moonlight dances on dunes so high,
Recalling nights beneath an endless sky.
On the edge of time, where stories unfold,

An ancient magic, in silks of gold.
Caravans stretch under stars' bright gaze,
Holding secrets lost in the desert's maze.
In the silence, a thousand voices cry,
Eons pass, as dreams slip by.
Vaulted arches in forgotten towns,
Emerald treasures in dust, broken crowns.
Magic carpets glide through the air,
Endless horizons, a world laid bare.
Nightly whispers of love and regret,
Tales of sultans and slaves unmet.
Sands of time shift, but the stories remain set.

Ubisoft is updating their games with achievements. I know the game is old, but on ps3 at least has achievements. Lets hope they bring this for all os us too.

+ 1 for achievements on all prince of persia games, please Ubisoft!

It's not even close, maybe if it had good story, it could've been the best.
