That's confidential!

Hmm... that information declassified quite rapidly.
So, wait, this means "YES, there WILL be a PC version, though later", right? :shock:

How could they have 'ruined' a whole other plot?! When someone uses a certain plot element/twist, it doesn't mean he 'ruined' an alternate plot! It's like saying that, for example, I wrote a book, and someone told me I ruined the book he had in mind by making the plot the way I saw fit.

What I added after saying that the information was confidential is — obviously — nothing more than my opinion on the matter and does not involve Ubisoft in any way.

You should get a Wii. They cost about 150$ today.

I've decided I'm gonna get me an XBox 360!

For those who read what I said before I edited my post: I realized I sounded like an idiot, so I edited it. Let me explain myself- I'm gonna drop out of school once I can because it's way easier doing all the big exams that way, it costs less, and there's a bigger chance that the army'll let me get the job I want. Plus, I will have time to work all year and get enough money for an XBox which I will be able to play all I want.

There are chances of a DB appearing tomorrow yes.

I'll try to have a look after studying a little after classes.

And by the way, Eurogamer's London Expo starts today. I bet Raygirl, Stacey and Gagaman are already playing Rayman Origins.

I have a friend in the UK that told me few minutes ago he went to the expo and tried out the game. He says it looks fantastic: very smooth graphics and controls, very interesting and challenging level designs and very fun co-op.

We already have. Only thing I don't like about it so far is that it's on an Xbox controller and I am NOT used to them at all, made it feel slippery.

The build they have there is one with part of the "Jungle", "Desert" and "Cave", and the desert one I believe is the one that was teased in one of the most recent daily bubbles ie swarms of flies that INSTANTLY KILL YOU.

The queue for it wasn't massive unlike Battlefield 3 [christ] but I suspect it'll be bigger, though things should be better especially when I come back there in cosplay. :>

As for freebies we got 3 postcards each but nothing more so far.

(yes I converted my spare tickets to go to Thursday's one, sorry!!!)

I believe the gameplay gets more confortable in a PS3.

I hope so, especially in co-op mode where it's all friendly fire.

Well... the Wii version of every single game that I know has the worst graphics but the best controller. One example may be.... Yeah, Sonic Unleashed, kinda awful game but compared to the xbox 360 version's controls, is great. It could have been better if it had more daytime levels and less werehog.

Well... now I can't imagine what will the next daily bubble be about, the only things that I can imagine is that little level with spikes that we saw at the E3 demo... there's nothing else. Maybe they will talk about an ability this time, or maybe another daily bubble about bitchslaps... who knows. The only thing that keeps worrying me is that ubisoft may follow nintendo's error. When they used the website to show SSB Brawl's secrets and spoilers....ugh, that was sooo awful. When I got the game, I didn't get impressed because I knew everything! The spoiler alerts never work because my curiosity always wins D:

I also read something interesting. Apparently Ubisoft Brazil revealed that several Ubisoft games, including Rayman Origins will be subtitled in Portuguese from Brazil.

It would be a big surprise if they decided to do the same for the European Portuguese.

So...Rayman Origins is gonna be subtitled, uh? that's ok, thaaat's ok. The last time I played a dubbed game, it was Kirby's Epic Yarn. For some reason, they decided to put some guy from Argentina as the narrator. His accent when talking was soooo irritating (sorry if there's someone from argentina here), why didn't they just put someone who speaked generic spanish for every country? nope, they decided to put some guy with the most "Argentino" speech ever. Also, I saw rayman 3's spanish voice acting, it wasn't that bad, but not as good as english.

Just seen the new Daily Bubble. I agree, the music when riding Moskito is very VERY similar to the music that you hear when riding Moskito in Rayman 1.

It won't match the quality of the music from the original game, as I don't think anything ever will, but it's certainly a very good effort.

Also, the FX that plays in the background of the new Daily Bubble (before you click on anything) sounds the same as this (00:12 onwards) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yycV2-hEiOs (except with the addition of locust sounds)

Wait, this is only being released for 360 and PS3 on the first release? That's... very gay. :? I dislike the use of a controller, it cramps my style. 360 isn't so bad, but PS3 just puts your thumbs in unnatural positions. I also would one-hundred percent of the time prefer a keyboard (and mouse if needed) over a controller; part of my experience actually comes from the sole fact that I'm playing it on a computer. I can't believe Ubi wouldn't just release a PC version along with the rest, especially since used to be their main platform, and it's BY FAR the easiest to manufacture.

Sorry for not being up to date. Like I said, I want as fresh an experience as possible.
