This article says that there is difference in numbers of globox's children. Well there is no difference, actually since the page in references says "35 sons". Sons doesn't equal children. Just thought I point it out.
I doubt that 615 of the children are female, thus they probably thought it to be a mistake and went forward to rectify it.

Taking the events of the end of the Prison Ship, where Ray frees it's captives, many of which are Blue (thus presumably male) Globoxes:

(at 6:44)

That, and also the many blue Globoxes which are saved in the Iron Mountains would lead one to imply that the number of males is greater than 35.

Why the blue ones have to be male? Just some clarification. I'm not a specialist.

I'm going to be honest and say that's just an assumption, though it stems from the fact that since Globox, who is male is blue, most of his male offspring would follow the same colouring, vice versa for Uglette.
That and the fact that (not being sexist here) it would be most likely the males who would be captured on the Prison Ship, since those are POW, and most likely captured on the battlefield.
As for the mines, I believe the babies to be male as I'm sure the females would get the more stereotypical jobs as the male's (IMO) did.

The article does say 650 children including hundreds of sons. They're already implying there's more sons than the Report suggests.

I guess some of the blue ones could be girls, but I myself tend to think they're the males too. There's no real way we can know, really, since they all behave exactly alike and make the same sqeauky noise.

Look me in the eye and tell me that the developers didn’t intend blue and pink to mean male and female.

Strange, I don't even need or have that DLL. Try just putting it in the Rayman 2 root folder.

You probably have it in the Windows folder somewhere then. Rayman 2 and other old games won't run without it.

It would go in System32 then.

Try updating your graphics driver, you might be using something really outdated, and I mean really outdated. I don't know for sure though.

I had that problem with Rayman 2 too. What I did was I grabbed hold of a NOCD version, and then ran that. Strangely enough, the NOCD requires me to insert my CD, so I guess it just works exactly like a legal version, but when my CD's in the tray, the game runs like a charm.
