It's definitely a title to rent if you get the chance. The controls are smooth and the framerate is high (locked at 60, very few stutters) and this just makes it a joy to play. It looks incredible on all 3 major consoles -- in fact, the PS2 looked so good the first time I saw it, I double-took: it looked so nice I thought it was XBox.
That said, it's simply a linear set of jump puzzles. My completion time was 4h45 minutes. Most people would be better off renting/borrowing the title, or at least waiting for the price drop.
By the way, as for your completion percentage, you'll never be able to hit 100% because at 100% you "win" (kill the end boss), and have no opportunity to save after that.
I recommend checking out the bonus Prince of Persia 1. Whee, old-school!
