All the news is amazing. The first two levels look quite good IMO. Hope the rest of the game follows the same trend and gets even better.
I also noticed that they included elements from the R2 2D prototype, like the switching between layers. Nicely done, Ubisoft. :D

We should go on-topic, then :oops2:

You know, guys? I think it's unfair how people that have access to play rayman origins don't even know who rayman is, and just find Rayman Origins as a "NSMBWii response from ubisoft". They can't even identify globox and just call him "the big blue guy" or something like that. Rayman deserves more than that.

Rayman has been very long time in hiatus too.

I don't care what previewers say, as long they do not lie about the game's details in later reviews.

It already happened to me reading reviews of other games that say bullshit about things that aren't as bad as they tend to criticize.

Ancel actually said in an interview that RO was before NSMBW.

But he also said that when they saw NSMBW, they completely redesigned the game to be similar to it.

What I have to say about reviews.
Though it would be nice if reviewers did their homework before making accusations and such.

OH MY GOSH Murphy's in Rayman Origins! YES! :waaahhh:
I hope Ubi realeases some Murphy artwork!
I never even finished the videos, I just saw the part with Murphy and that's it, I don't think I can handle much more spoilers.
Also, here is a new article, with some more screenshots. :oops2:

Indeed. The two guys in that recent video (posted on the previous page) sound like idiots.

Besides, I don't see how Origins is ripping off New Super Mario Brothers Wii when Origins went into production before the Mario game. According to Michael Ancel in one of the recent video interviews, RO came first...

Well, Ubisoft stated major ideas were changed after they got their hands of New Super Mario Bros. Wii.

Though the game somewhat resemble it, Rayman Origins remains an extremely creative game with many new features. Plus, New Super Mario Bros. Wii is a good game, so Rayman Origins can only become better this way.
I think we should notice the large difference in gameplay though.

Just by watching gameplay, it looks like that's how it's gonna be.

I doubt this is intentional. I reckon, along with silouette stages and hectic backgrounds, it was taken straight out of DKC Returns.
Not that I'm complaining, DKC Returns is FANTASTIC

Now I feel bad for seeing Murfy and the Magician's Hat. After I saw the the Magician's Hat I exited the video, and haven't watched any of the others. But guys, if another spoiler video does come on, for the people who don't want to know the details of the game's sakes', please don't scream out what the spoiler is, just say that there's a spoiler.

I am excited now though, MURFY!!!!!!!!

The snowglobe thingy in one of the pictures.

And Moody Clouds will become my favorite level. Seriously.

I think you missed my point. The Land of the Livid Dead doesn’t appear in R1 – it appears only in R3 and Origins.

German gameplay trough the first 3 stages:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_s4U2L4dkHU

Not much new things, but this time we see the titel screen and a mixed up trailer at the beginning.
Also in this version are a few more enemys, i think. But I'm not sure.

I'm not sure, but I think that every 5 Electoons you get a character/skin.

I don't think November is ever going to get here. :(
I've never been this excited for a game before.
