I think God of War is more action oriented but Prince of Persia has more puzzles and a better story.

God of War uses some of the best established characters in history. Greek Mythology is literary gold. The characters in Prince of Persia are more original, but will never be as recognizable. In a way Kratos actually suffers from this. Fallen warrior stories are entertaining and I find Kratos' story more interesting than the prince, but he'll always be overshadowed by the Gods. The prince stands out in a big fish smaller pond kind of way.
