Not totally on topic here, but I just remembered this video I uploaded when I was eleven:



Pretty good, now that I think about it. How about you guys?

It is a little on topic. It does have something to do with Rayman 1 at least :P

Pretty neat, yes! Interesting sound track though.

Very cool, Rayfan!

I also have a bad habit of running in the Bad Rayman phase when I'm playing alone. :mryellow:

I always try to get him to do the weirdest things. I've had that ever since I played a similar level in Rayman GBC. Playing against something lethal that performs every exact move you do has its downsides, but it certainly also has great comedic advantages.

Have you ever played leapfrog with him before? :mryellow:

Yes! Many times! It's so much fun making him bow down to you as well.

Well at least I wasn't the only one that liked doing this when I was little :mryellow:

Screwing around with BadRay is rather entertaining.
It's a shame you lose the grimace ability, it'd be nice to force him to grimace over and over.

All right that's it, I'm going to start a civil war if that's what it takes to get people to call him Dark Rayman or DarkRay. Every single instance aside from the original game has called him Dark Rayman - even Rayman Advance, a port of the original. 'Bad Rayman' sounds like a crummy, unintentionally bad English translation that was very soon replaced after release, and it burns all of my senses.

I like Bad Rayman better then Dark Rayman. It sounds more better and I am used to the name. I am not on your side RayFan.

I wouldn't be surprised, your English sounds like it was bred the same way.

I only call him Bad Rayman since that's what all the people that uphold the original name insist on calling him. I like both names just as much, but if it will stop you from murdering me or my babies with a scimitar, I'll gladly adapt. Dark Rayman.

If you cheat to get to Candy Chateau before you get the running power, you can do that. You just see him flashing that green tongue of his over, and over, and over.

Wait, they gave him a grimace animation, all coloured and animated correctly, even though he will never use it? That's funny. What surprises me more is not that the sprite is there, but that it's even coded into the game that he should use that particular sprite at that time.

Probably as a contingency should someone hack their way to Dark/Bad/Whatever Rayman's level.
"The dev team thinks of everything," perhaps?

He isn't named in the original. The only game that calls him Bad Rayman is Rayman Designer.
