At least it's the only crash there is in that version while the same level crashed about 4 times when I got to the tomb's spiders in the DS version :mefiant:

Also, Revolution is peak Rayman 2 even with its flaws and nobody can convince me otherwise. :hap:
Well I can say this about Revolution, the English voice acting is much better.
Ngl I prefer the PS1 voice acting because it feels like it suits the tone of the game a lot
That’s understandable. In that case lemme go ahead and start retroarch and start playing Raymin 2 :lol:

I agree that the PS1 acting is better. I swear it feels at times the Revolution voices were recorded in a toliet. :mefiant:

Revolution va is alright but PS1 feels like a story of its own. A bunch of innocent beings giving up on hope of the world and relying on one person who doesn’t believe in themselves

I feel the voice actors for the PS1 didn’t know what they were doing either. And I’d rather the guardians not have voices, thanks!

It was strange not to see a Spanish dub in Revolution. Didn't they use the same audio tracks?

At least they got a German one I guess, it would be disastrous if they didn’t have an English dub tho :oops2:

If I had to choose between Raymanian and PS1 English voices, I’d rather listen to good Raymanian.

It would be even worse not to have a French dub.

Or Rayman being French and yet not having a release of the far superior Rayman Arena version of Rayman M in Europe and when there's already a French dub in that specific version of the game... That would be so dumb, right? :hap:
(Still mad about this, Ubi :mefiant:)

I mean, it's literally the exact same game with more content and refined features. If you prefer things being objectively worse, then there's Rayman Rush on the PS1 made specifically for people like you and we did get that one in Europe. :hap:
(And sadly I was originally introduced to M through that downgrade when the real game is actually miles better :oops2: )

For Rayman 2, I think I have to agree.

The only thing unique about Rush…wasn’t that Globette?

Yes, and and I still don't know wth they even made up that character when Uglette already exist! :mefiant:
But to be fair, we're talking about the same people who thought everyone would prefer to have a new throwavay character called "Tily" over Ly. :hap:

Also, Rush actually turned one of the virtual levels into an actual Pirate one and it has the freeze projectile mechanics during the races.
