Re: Rayman himself

Post by Sabertooth »

Well, I saw Rayman at a grocery store in Los Angeles when I was seven. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything.

He said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?”

I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen Milky Ways in his hands without paying.

The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Sir, you need to pay for those first.” At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter.

When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “to prevent any electrical infetterence,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. After she scanned each bar and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.

One day my father bought Rayman 2 home. He knew that I liked videogames so he though to get me a present. He helped me install it on my computer so that I could play without any problem. I was like 5 at the time and that was the first time I saw Rayman and immediately fell in love with him. I loved everything about the game and I was so excited (still am) everytime I got to know there was a new Rayman game coming. Heck, he saved my life more than once.

I was pretty young, I was at my grandma house and my cousin was playing Rayman Hoodlums Revenge, I immediately fell in love with the game and my cousin seeing how much I liked it decided to give it to me, after that I played it everytime I could and a week later at a GameStop I found Rayman 3 which is still my all time favorite game.

One day me and my father went to a gaming store (I was Probably around 6 back then), I saw Rayman 3 (Pc Version) laying on one of the shelves and I quickly asked my Father to buy the game, after completing the game I immediately fell in love with the series and played all the other main rayman titles (Plus Rayman M, Rayman RR and Rayman designer)
still rayman 3 will always be my favorite out of all the games and shares a lot of good memories that I had with my friends and my family.

When I was briefly suicidal, Rayman was the only one who could talk me down from the ledge.

My first experience with Rayman was with Rayman Raving Rabbids on Xbox 360.

My first REAL experience with Rayman was around a year ago, when my uncle was searching the Xbox One arcade, and they were giving free games to people with Xbox Live Gold. One of the games was Rayman Legends. We played it for an hour or so, and I absolutely HAD to have it. Got it on Wii U not long after, and since then I have collected every main game in the series, as well as Arena.

First experience: Learning with Rayman on PC being played at the local library at the age of 8 (I think) circa 2000-2001. After that there was no escape. By the time Rayman 3 was announced and was in active development I was already waiting for it anxiously and I was literally screaming in excitement when I finally saw it appearing on the shelves of local stores. :3

Well I first discovered Rayman when I was 4 and was at my grandma's house. So I went upstairs to go to the computer with Windows 2000 installed and looked at the games they had there. They pretty only owned a bunch of point & click children games, but then I saw a game called Rayman. It looked awesome and I wanted to play it, so my father installed it and after a while I was playing it. I always got stuck at the second part of the first level but I still thought the game was awesome.

I still have that disk :D

Oh, forgot to mention, it was the first real game I played. :fou:

I had a Gameboy Advance and my mum bought me a bunch of cartridges online, Rayman - Hoodlum's Revenge being one of them.

They're quite similar actually. Fiesta Run has more levels however and better level design in my opinion though.

I recently came to think that Rayman could be a limbless worm.

I can't stop laughing not just because of the way Rayman moves but also because of the chosen music. :lol:
