Rayman 2: The Great Escape is one of my favourite games (Rayman 3... less said about that the better). I'd absolutely love to play Rayman: Origins, but until it comes out for PC...

Rayman 2 was one of my fav games on ps1 next to crash bandicoot ..:D

jaykhunter

hand-drawn 2D platformer is probably all of my favourite preferences ever so I'll v likely be picking this up! hope it plays as well as it looks

richymcdermott

played the demo earlier, its gorgeous looking, plays well,its funny too, I might actually pick this up, makes a change from blowing sh1t up in fps games

The only problem with the game is...it's being released in the same goddamn month as the years biggest games. Once again, another unique game that will do jack in the marketplace due to poor management and marketing.

Having played the Demo I'm getting this for sure. I loved the original Rayman on the PS1 so this is right up my alley. I also hope this game does well, games with good mechanics and charm rarely get the attention they deserve where sales are concerned so I'm putting my cash in their hands day 1. Was even thinking of getting the collectors edition with the art book etc, depends how cash is. Think it's only €55 on Zavvi.

Ubisoft have said if rayman does well , they will sure make a beyond good and evil 2

Ah, but you see, this time it's being released on the DIGITAL market place, where sales are measured for more than Month 1!

It's getting a full retail release!

Played the demo earlier. The shmup homage level is glorious. Plus, the most beautifully animated underwater level since BioShock!

What?

Oh.

Poop.

brianon

So anyone pick this up today ?

Got it and it's glorious

Pity it wasn't a little cheaper. Might do better.

AceCard Jones

Got it today myself, but it's behind a bit of a backlog currently, have Saints Row to finish and have Started WWE 12 also. Will post back when I start on it properly.

Josey Wales

I still have Super Mario 3D Land, Uncharted 3 and Skyrim on the backlog so I won't be getting this yet. Hopefully it will be cheaper next year.

Mr E

Rayman Origins is €34.99 in HMV at the moment (all formats). Picked it up for the 360 this morning.

Notorious

Rayman is also €25 in Game on Wii, PS3 and 360 when you buy something else. Picked it up yesterday and am dying to crack into it!

cherryghost

Cannot recommend this game enough guys. Fantastic game. Played it on the 360 and Wii. Wii version has graphics dumbed down slightly but it still looks magic.

Vyse

Only £20 on amazon.co.uk for the 360 and £22 for the PS3. Definitely going to pick this up. Haven't played a Rayman game since Rayman 2 on my DC.

NotorietyH

Haven't played a whole lot of it being a bit sick at the mo, but my God, the bits I've played have just been fantastic. Oozes charm, and is just so damn enjoyable. Absolutely gorgeous looking too. Well worth picking up.
