So... Could big mama and him... Have a connection?
Big Mama is Voodoo Mama after Bubble Dreamer had nightmares: http://raymanorigins.fr.ubi.com/dailybu ... itionNum=4
So I wouldn't think so.
Originally yes, but Big Mama is now a Nymph and Voodoo Mama a character merely mentioned by Bubble Dreamer
So does that make things different?

Many many oages ago I read something abou Mr. Dark and the robo-pirates having a connection.Now that theory became stronger to me when I noticed something I don't know if you had: In the second level of Moody Clouds in Rayman Origins,
the columns,ground and all that has a similar aspect to the appearance of many constructions made by the robo-pirates in R2,with a brown colour and gloden decoration.This can be seen in The Sanctuary of Rock and Lava,The Fairy Glade and many more levels in R2.

So my final theory would be:

Mr. Dark tried to kill Rayman in R1.After he failed,he decided to create a robo-pirate army to try to finish Rayman,but failed again in R2.Michel Ancel didn't give many importance to the facts from R3 because he didn't take a big role in its production so Mr. Dark doesn't have anything to do with Andry/Andre for now,I gues Ancel could come out with the unknow guy who scared the first Red Lum being Mr. Dark.Now in RO Mr. Dark returns to try again to kill Rayman again as a warth as the robo-pirates idea failed too.Now he failed again xD

That would leave Mr. Dark as the real enemy in the Rayman series.

PS: Let me know if I made any mistake with my english as this is a really big wall of text compared to what I use to write.

I’m pretty sure that both of these ideas have been put forward and discussed in the past. Mr Dark creating the Robo-Pirates is unlikely, as they’re said to have destroyed over a hundred planets by the time of Rayman 2, which would make them quite ancient. Mr Dark didn’t create André either: Rayman’s hands did. The final scene of Rayman 3 was a flashback showing how it happened.

Maybe Mr. Dark had created them long ago :P and too his ship in RO resembles a lot robo-pirates' one in R2...
Anyways I don't think the ending of R3 was a flashback,I think that Rayman's hands wanted to make Globox happy and scared the Lums as Globox said he missed André and asked Rayman to do it.And you have to admit that would be pretty awesome theory and that Ubi wouldn't just let a little detail like the one of the robo-pirates having destroyed a hundred planets stop them,as they have changed some things already to fit RO's "story"

I noticed that too. Maybe he took some of Razor's destroyed ships and rebuilt them to use for his own army.

:waaahhh: You're kidding, right?!
They could have been harder, but they are challenging! I died several time trying to beat them! (except Golly G. Golem, I beat him on my first try.)

you're such a hater :mefiant:

Ok, I played rayman origins completely. It's a beautiful masterpiece. One thing:
HAVING A 100% IT'S NOT NECCESARY TO HAVE ACCESS TO ALL OF THE SKULL TEETH!! D:
Actually, it only requires like...uh... 205 electoons or less? whatever, the Land of the Livid Dead is not a secret final level, it's just a secret optional level. Anyway, it's great :mryellow:

No! I really love this game like you, but I only say that the bosses are a little too easy.

Is it just me, or does the difficulty go at a normal rate, and than becomes some kind of frustrating athletics challenge when you reach the Sea of Serendipity? Oh well, It's been a lot of fun so far. There's so much to see.

I'm a pro at platforming games, and it took me several deaths to beat all of the bosses, how could you say they're easy? If you watched the walkthroughs before, that's cheating :mefiant:

I'm up to Mystical Pique now. I'm on Mythical Munkeys. Gonna play it later. The 2nd and 3rd cage made me die so many times. Haruka I'll give you 3 tips for the Tricky Treasure levels.

1. NEVER, and I repeat, NEVER, helicopter on Tricky Treasure levels. They are very fast-paced, and helicoptering will ruin your momentum which is needed to achieve massive jumps and keep up.
2. Forget all the laws of physics, and gravity. If it looks like you won't be able to make a jump, just go for it. If you fail you'll learn something for next time.
3. Just go with the flow. if the level starts falling apart around you, stay calm, and continue sprinting. NEVER LET GO OF THE SPRINT BUTTON.

Another thing- If you finally reach the end and the chest stops after you'd died thousands of times, express your relief by beating the sh** out of the chest.

That my friends, is 3 tips to get you through tricky treasure levels. Hope you have better luck than me!

Thx Ikke and same for me sonyplaystation. Damn the DoD and GL gave me a hard time with it's tricky treasures.

Another thing I forgot to mention in my last post- I seem to have released a few of the claws that grip two of my friends in the web of FPS. A few weeks ago I tried convincing them that RO is an awesome game and that not only CoD is good. They wouldn't listen. It seems over the weekend they saw the Aussie Rayman origins commercial, and today when I went to school they both agreed that the game was epic. They still think black Ops and MW3 are better though. <- That's deside the point though, I'm making progress with my FPS loving friends! RO may be the game that makes some of my friends love games other than CoD! This is GREAT!

:confus:
First since I forgot to say this as well- a few days ago my dad picked up an Xbox 360 second-hand REALLY cheap because it wasn't working properly. So he brought it home and we fixed it up, and it's working good as new. Yesterday I went and rented Portal 2 because I've been itching to play it, and though I was a noob when I started, I immediatley fell in love with it's rich humour and brain-crushing puzzles. So there, you can love a game if you're a noob.

I forgot to mention- I was only a noob for a few seconds till I figured out the controls, then I became pro. 8)
