Is the Playstation mag the US one or the UK one? Would be surprised to hell and back if that came from the UK one.

Love the music in this new trailer...

Holy smoke! Is this long-awaited sequel really going to have been worth the wait big time, or are these ratings not to be trusted?
I am arriving to the conclusion that my initial expectation of "8" as an average review score was too much modest. Maybe the game is even better than what I'm expecting? Holy cow...

It is already 3 reviews from 9/10 score to up so I think RO is undoubtedly the best platformer of 2011.

Let more reviews come in!

This. Is the satisfying conclusion. To a story about a struggle. A struggle, that has finally paid off.

Next up: the IGN review; 3/10, because floating limbless characters are overrated.
Oh, IGN... :roll:

I think there isn't any doubts anymore that the 8 years of wait were worth, and that our limbless hero has returned big, and in great style.

Everyone, go pre-order RO, NOW. :evil:

I already pre-ordered it like a month and a half ago. Then again, you had an automatic pre-order so that's far cooler.

VICTORY, THE SWEET TASTE OF ABSOLUTE VICTORY!

It's funny actually, this is the first time I will actually truly appreciate the launch of a Rayman game, the others, I was late for.
Let the reviews keep coming...

And I hear people saying that 64,99€ for the collector's edition is asking too much. :tssk:

I think the game will be worth every single cent.

Those reviews are excellent! I can't wait for the upcoming [N]Gamer Magazine to review the game, considering that I haven't seen them so positive about a game in a long time.

Two things:

1. You must have the best piece of fuck to run that game smoothly on your computer.

2. Ubisoft deserves their money for this game.

Wow they sure were quick at slipping quotes from the first reviews into a trailer.
Fantastic music, hope that's in the game.

No, that’s the correct pronunciation.
No, it isn't. It's pronounced "l-uh-m," but she said "l-oo-m." She also pronounced teensies wrong by saying "teen-seez" instead of "teen-zeez."

Where have you been? We never heard from you after 55 posts... jeez, i'm addicted to this site, im catching up with Rayfan who has been here since 2009.

The music is probably in the game. I don't think they will compose music just for the trailer. :)

None of the pronunciations are in fact "correct", and if one of them is because it's been used officially, then both are, because they've both been. Still, "l-oo-m" is closer to the original meaning, of "light" as it comes closer to the Latin "lux".
The original "lum" is based on "lumière" in French though, which means "light" as well. That is pronounced like a "ü" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Close_front_rounded_vowel).

EDIT -> It's definitely "l-uh-m" in Rayman Revolution, as you said. Some officials used "l-oo-m" too, so I'm not sure which one it is. It might just have been changed to "l-oo-m" for Rayman Origins, too.
