I voted Rayman DS.
I know that there are errors.
I have many versions of Rayman 2 (PC, DS, PS2, PS3 store)
Only Rayman 2 PC does not work anymore :(

And I don't like R2 PS1 version, because it have strange level-design, looks like beta with less levels.

The reason for this is probably PS1's low RAM. Nin64 could at least access level directly from cartridge. There is a lot of gameplay stuff missing actually, like hang-between-walls. That said Flying Missile was easy to control - and in final battle it could barrel roll!

I have only ever played the PlayStation version and Revolution. I find Revolution to be the better out of the two because of the better visuals (obviously), the less linear level designs and a featured HUB world.

I voted for PS2.I made the mistake of selling it to a GAME shop and now I know I shouldn't have done that.I was very good and you could walk through the world :D loved it.But now I only have my not-working PC version...

Can anyone remind me if the PS2 version had The Walks of Life and Power?

Hmm... but why would you sell a game that's got far more in it than the PC version, because you have the PC version? Lol, don't mean to put salt in the wounds, but that's just my opinion.

Nevertheless, I like the PC one best, just because I grew up with it, it's the one I love and play most and because, now that I have Revolution, I noticed Pirate battles are far less fun, because the Pirates die instantly or throw weird stuff at you like flying dogs with sunglasses on. :shock:
Also, I do not like the voice acting. At all. I mean, I enjoy it, because it's Rayman, but it sucks in my opinion. The things I miss most are the cute expressions like the 'YEAH' when you have all 50 Lums, the 'Hey!' when something weird happens (for example the Warship showing up in the Canopy) and the voice of Razorbeard.

This is how I felt. Plus it felt like one of those games where they throw in all kinds of unnecessary additions. The pirate ship battle after rescuing Globox, the rows of pirates in the hub (and you kind of play Space Invaders for a moment), and boarding a rocket ship to get to the Buccaneer. I felt like so much of the magic was taken away. :(

I still remember playing my PC version so long ago, and encountering the part where Polokus forms a portal and says something along the lines of, "show no fear." That was an incredible scene. Why ruin it?

Then there was the voice acting, which I thought was horrible in Revolution... until I turned it to French, then it was sexy.

I agree that the voice acting's pretty awful, but I liked what they did with Revolution. It felt like there was a lot more connection between everything in the game. Weird thing though, my emulator's screwed up twice when I get about half way through the game.

My friend just obtained a Dreamcast, and that's one of the two systems I haven't played Rayman 2 on yet. The other is the Playstation 1 version

Also someone should add the 3Ds version to the list.
