Rayman Origins

[Haruka]

A confirmation about the price and platforms would be very welcomed, aswell a demo of the PC version.

Does it really matter how much it costs? It's a Rayman game; we'll all end up buying it anyway.

I know that, I have money saved for it, but I would like to know the exact ammount. Knowing it doesn't hurt anyone.

Judging from price standards for recent XBLive Arcade games. 1200MS points is a logical price for bigger releases, even though I personally find only few Arcade titles worth that price. I've only bought Shadow Complex and both Banjo Kazooie games for 1200 points. Of course Rayman will be worth it! So I don't really mind if it'll be more than 800MS points.

[Haruka]

I know the equivalent to € if we are talking about Wii points... But if it will cost less than 20€, it will be ridiculously cheap!

I'm beting it will be around the 30€, and in worst chances 60€.

[Newray]

At least these are episodic releases, that usually means they can't force the highest possible price tag.

So I'm guessing that the Xbox LIVE version will be 800MS points (I suppose that's around $10) for each episode. 1200 would be the highest option as it's the highest available price tag for XBLive Arcade games (well, there are a few exceptions but those are not even relevant to products like Rayman games).

[Ephriokko]

Yeah, forcing a high price tag would contradict a statement on the UBIart blog posted in June:

With episodes, the price must be proportional to the size of the game, there is no way we are taking gamers for fools!

I don't yet own a PS3 and I'm absolutely clueless as per the average costs of downloadable titles... for one like Rayman Origins and what we know so far, what do you think the point cost would be... and how much would that equate to in US dollars?

[Haruka]

I'm thinking that if the episode gets a nice longevity it will get around 30€. Better than that would be just 20€.

It surely won't be paid for by episode

[Danone]

Does this game was created by Michael Ancel, too??

[Jewish Candy]

Yes, Ancel is working on this game.
I expect one will pay episode-by-episode. If it's any more than 20 quid per segment, though... I am going to eat face.

[Danone]

certainly worthwhile work

[Haruka]

But maybe when they release all the episodes, a boxed version is released and the price stabilized to the 60€.

There euros in portugal too?
I had forgotten

[Haruka]

Oo... Err, yes? Since 1st January 2002?

[Danone]

yes,we were used in Spain, before, the ''pesetas'', which remained in use till march of the same year

[Haruka]

I know that Spanish used Pesetas before, I have some saved that my father gave me once.

Before Euro, Escudos was our currency... But you are Spanish and you didn't know that your other neighbour country had the Euro, I'm surprised. Oo

that a desired coin

[Ephriokko]

Well, I've seen all sorts of price guesses in lots of different currencies here... unfortunately I'm not that great with conversion values and I have yet to see anything that would help out an American waiting for the game guess anything based on what's here. :'D

[ParadoxJuice]

Just type the conversion in Google. Google will convert it for you.

I hope the price is proportionate. The game shouldn't cost more than $60 for the all episodes. If the game had sixty levels, and each episode offered five levels, each episode should cost $5.
