Travel in Time wasn't at MCM expo, had a good hard look for it, only Ubi game that was even there was Assassin's Creed Brotherhood. It should be coming out in a few weeks anyway but I'm not sure if I really even want to get it straight away.

Gonna sound like a hypocrite when I say this but:

I found this new book at work today called "1001 Games You Must Play Before You Die" or something, and surprise surprise they only listed Rayman Raving Rabbids among it. Can't remember what it fully said but one line said "these characters are more known than the original Rayman series"; bullshit. The second thing that's bullshit about this is how a glitchfest [the way I see it now I'm more bothered by how many game breaking glitches there were rather than what it was going to be] could even make it in such a book. Apparently those 1001 games are supposed to be spectacular, maybe I should give it a proper look but whatever, I'm not well and probably being retarded.

What system was RRR for and what number was it?

The Wii one, and as far as I remember it wasn't numbered but rather sorted by company. I'll probly check it again when I go to work tomorrow.

Rayman Raving Rabbids is not considered to be a great game by anyone. The book was incorrect.

Here it is an Amazon, see if you Brits and Irishes can find it in all your local libraries.

At least RRR2 and TV Party were slight improvements controls wise; but fuck they could have put Rayman 2 there ie the Dreamcast version.

What the heck?! :boon:

I guess we must get the authors' names and pointing guns to their heads until they decide to correct this detail in a new edition.

Speaking of which, I finished the Dreamcast version for the first time just last night. It was glorious. Definitely the pinnacle of the series as a whole.

Fun trailer, but hold on a minute... I thought this was going to be a platformer game!

They never said it was going to be a platformer.

Speaking of which, there's a new figurine collection based on the game; I should know because I bought a few today. They must have come out today, since I didn't see them when I popped in the games shops down where my boyfriend lives last weekend. This time there's 27 of them, three of each time period [eg pirates] and 60 cards.

I gotta hand it to them, I did NOT see this collection coming, all this time I was expecting the sports one.

I didn't spot the Sports collection yet, despite of have caught the commercial on TV. :boon:

I guess that very few Portuguese stores are interested in the collection. Sadly.

There was a Spanish language website about the sports ones and I've seen some up for sale from Chinese sellers on eBay but I don't know if they're fake or now.

Anyway, a pic of the Travel in Time ones I got

Fantastic figures.

Saw the new trailer called "The Unruly Choir" and it looks like the dancing parts are going to be a reskinned Just Dance :boon: which won't be cool because that game was such a broken mess.

I've seen a Portuguese Xmas catalogue from a store and it appears Rayman Raving Rabbids Travel in Time for Wii. It will cost 48,90€ and the release date will be at 26th November. Well, we'll see if this year ECOFILMES breaks the record of delaying the release of Ubisoft games in Portugal, again.

The game is out now in North America, double checked that on US Amazon. Also the other day I saw these being on sale in some GAME stores for half the price they're selling on the Ubi shop.

Gah redirects, they should be in the Ubi shop anyhow. But year that's just a quid cheaper than how much they have the Go Home related lot on Amazon, shame half of these new ones are pretty damn ugly eg the skeleton ones.
