I love it, but I think the price is a bit excessive for what it is.

It's fine, although I'm not entirely convinced by the soundtrack.

It's okay, although I wouldn't have included the accessibility options (infinite lives, etc.).

I expected more from Ubisoft. They should have made some improvements, just like the fans did with Rayman Redemption.

I'd be dumbstruck if somebody had chosen the last option in the previous poll. :P

I can't seem to be able to vote on this one. The question's changed, but it looks like the poll might not have updated...

Definitely Rayman 2, I like goofy and a bit more quiet and modest personality way more than what his personality is like in Rayman 3 because in 3, he tries way too hard to look cool and to act cool in order to be cool and I really don't like that personality of his at all.

Though I like his Rayman 1 personality too. :)

I don't know if that's different enough from the ongoing poll on the Rayman 1 thread itself.

How about something more topical, like "Would you have liked to see the 'capture the flag' multiplayer mode in Rayman Advance completed?"

Well, in a way, it would have been a nice addition, but I don't think I would have had the occasion to try it since it requires another player. What's more, Rayman Advance's gameplay probably isn't ideal for this type of thing. I might have played it a couple times and then gotten bored, I suppose.

I'm not too fond of the gameplay myself when you compare it to the original, but I would have said it would be a nice addition for the reason of making it a little different. Still though, it's a shame that the port has so many problems and the music is pretty bad, considering the GBA has some good music in other titles.

Yeah, hell is probably where Rayman Advance music plays continuously. It even beats the clown farts theme from Resident Evil: Director's Cut.

If you like listening to it, that's alright. But in my opinion it honestly sounds like screeching noises.

Also I remember when I first listened to the music from the PS1 and PC versions, I noticed that some of the songs that were played in Advance were much higher tones than normal, and I think that's probably the one key thing that bugs me. Why was it necessary really to do that?
