I can add that both Gametrailers and GameInformer gave the game a 8.5. That's all still above the 8 out of ten prediction from Haruka. I knew this game is great.Master4lyf1 said:Gamepro - 4.5/5
Joystiq - 5/5
It does not matter, the opportunity to survey the game for ourselves prior to it's launch should be satisfying enough.ikke471 said:You will have to re-unlock it!

I envy the skills of some of the players here...Rayfist090 said:alright! 0:36 im about caught up with rayman3ds, I need to get to 0:35 now![]()

Gaaw, they pull the avarage score down. We need a random Italian site to give it another 9.5:Janic said:I can add that both Gametrailers and GameInformer gave the game a 8.5.

They see that as a problem? I love that kind of stuff.GameInformer's review said:One of the only big problems I had with the game is how it blocks the end-game content until you’ve collected enough Electoons to pass. These smiling orbs are the game’s currency, earned by finding hidden stashes and picking up a variety of collectibles scattered throughout the world. If you don’t make collecting them a priority from the start, you may find yourself grinding earlier levels like I did.
Done it for every Rayman game, and for Origins too.El Dango said:They see that as a problem?

I actually plan on deliberately rushing through the levels and avoid secrets at first, then come back to each level later and find every cage that I missed. It's the same way I play Rayman 2.
But parents can D:spiraldoor said:Valuable secret: schools cannot make you go anywhere.
Excactly. When you go back to previous levels and find that there's much more to them than you thought, it practically doubles the game's value imo. I agree that backtracking can be bad at times, like when you simply have to play through the same level several times with little to no change, but this is the good kind of backtracking!Master4lyf1 said:Done it for every Rayman game, and for Origins too.El Dango said:They see that as a problem?

I like backtracking, with more powers, and more abilities, it makes levels more fun to traverse, since you have a new-found mastery over it because of abilities gained.

I've just read this month's issue of the gaming magazine I usually buy here, and they wrote a preview about RO. The redaction has got high expectations and they will review the game in the next issue.I smell another big score!
This month's issue also lists suggestions for Xmas gifts, and among them there is Rayman Origins!![]()
[So... now that you know the truth about the spoiler, could you give us some indication of what sort of twist it is? Does it play a major role in the story, and is it as crushing as some of us have postulated? Are you happy with how it turned out?]Drolpiraat said:(I didn't post any major spoiler I read - I now know the truth about the spoiler we've been discussing. Some of us may have been close to the truth, but nobody has nailed it yet. )
