Okay well, my dad told me that my last name ("Durrett") originated in France, and it used to be pronounced "Dur-ray". And that my family originated from France. So I'm not completely French, just mostly. Maybe that's why I like Rayman so much :P

I'm 100% Portuguese and I don't need to have a French name to like Rayman so much. :P

My mother's family came to Ireland with the twelfth-century Norman invasion. The Normans were French, if I'm not mistaken.

I just got Brain Games for PSX because I was looking to replace my Amazing Learning Games CD with a version that has better video quality.

However, I can't seem to get the intro video to play for Brain Games. I know the intro exists on Rayman Junior (The UK PSX version) as Saffya uploaded the youtube video long ago, but Brain Games seems to not have the intro.

Anyone else have Brain games that could check for me?

Haha, yeah I didn't know which name you went by right now.

I think possibly they may have taken out the videos in Rayman Brain Games since it contains the three difficulty levels all in one CD, while it appears Rayman Junior was three separate releases as Level 1, 2, and 3.

Just the video quality in the DOS version of Amazing Learning Games is just garbage, even though it's all there. There are so many skipped frames of animation and the video is choppy along with terrible color. The videos on the Softkey PC DOS release weren't THIS bad. French with Rayman (Only for PC for English speakers I believe) has just as bad video quality.

Did anyone actually play this as a kid and if so what did you think of it back in the day? I got the level 2 Junior edition when I was 7 and i loved it, kinda felt like a follow on from rayman 1 in a sense...just with more numbers and shizz. Also does anyone know the main differences between the 3 levels?

I think, difficulty of the tasks is the main difference. Not sure about level concepts at all, but I think levels are same or mostly same-like, just tasks are different.
I have 3rd level and actually would like to play some other level to compare.

I think it is what Rendell said. Personally I don't own the physical game or ever bothered to play it entirely in the emulator.

I didn't play much of them, but from what I did play, it was kindof...meh.

Funnily enough, I think the Learning with Rayman games was my "introduction" to Rayman 1.
I remember getting STUCK in Picture City- I was that dumb (well, I was about 6-7 when I first got it). But I loved the game regardless because, hey, it was Rayman. I played it at least once every 1-2 months for quite a while until I got Vista and it no longer worked.
Didn't notice any differences, though. Just different tasks, as been said.

My first experience with Rayman was indeed Rayman Junior Vol. 1. My dad had to help me a lot, and I found the punishment for wrong answers really scary. Even so, I liked it, so I got Vol. 3 for Christmas. The level concepts are exactly the same, but the map design differs slightly (or a lot in some places).
