Only thing is though, there are stuff like toilet seats knocking about, and I only just recently found out they're official. X'D Then there are meccano sets, custom vinyl toys and so forth.
I see, I'm not good with merch, but having seen a few bits and bobs away from the keyboard, I can see where you're coming from, the merch does seem to be rather impressive.
And, a toilet seat, guess it's to be expected.

My dad just bought Raving Rabbids Travel in Time. I took an opportunity to play it, while saying to myself "come on, it can't be that bad". I tried as hard as I could to enjoy it... but it was impossible. TiT is GOD AWFUL. And I'm not just hating, I mean it. It's an awful experience. It's like a party game with the most generic games possible (one minigame is about shooting at rocks, that's it, SHOOTING AT ROCKS) , trying to simulate an adventure with pointless collectables and minigames played one by one. I tried to play more to contribute to the wiki with more material about this game, but I couldn't. It's horrible, in almost Sonic 06 level.

One of the biggest mistakes of his life.

See what it gives doubting of our word? :P I told you I was serious in what I was saying about TiT, and so does Stacey.

And I did believe you, but my dad buys every single wii game he sees. I mean, here, take a look as his catalogue of games:

Seriously? :O

I only played RRR1 and RRR2.

The first one was rather boring and a bad experience on PS2 : you are only destroying your pad with minigames which need rapidity. Considering what I've seen until now, ports of Rabbids' games on other consoles than WII are really awful. This serie is only "a little" (in case you are still enjoying some of them) funny on WII.

RRR2 was kinda better and had more diversified games. But if you don't play in multiplayer with three people give it up after having finished the adventure :tssk:

^ This.

Do like I do: Read a lot of reviews first.

@Saerleiya I think some RRR1 minigames got easier in PS2 than on Wii and vice-versa.

Oh god Chicken shoot...

Well I got Rabbids Rumble in the mail and while it is average in whole, I really find the "arena" mode rather fun; it has RPG elements to it like Pokemon and maybe even Fire Emblem (idk as I didn't play the GBA one for that long); the other minigames are a bit boring though, and there are AR minigames as well which are really fussy with light.

Indeed. But what really disappointed me in RRR1 is how you can destroy your pad with many freakin' minigames (I especially think to dance minigames where you must hit L2/R2 button every 0.3 sec :/...).

Tell me about it, I remember the minigame where you had to move both analogue sticks in a successive rhythm, but at a ridiculous speed, frankly, that controller was asking to be broken.

Can you explain? Because its my personal favourite out of the three. TVParty is much worse, believe me.

Look, DarkKitty, you seem to be under the impression that the sole purpose of this topic is to post venomous statements towards the Rabbids.
To be clear, it isn't.
If you want to do that, go somewhere else.

I've never come into much contact with RRR2, what would you say makes it the best of the three?

I think the minigames in general are fun to play either alone or with friends. There was minigame recycling in RRR1, which makes gameplay more repetitive and boring. RRR2 is the only completable game out of the three games. The score mode of RRR1 is impossible to master, and TVParty has got grave programming glitches that stay you away from getting 100%.

The only good thing about TV Party was the 2d cutscenes but that's about it.

This would be how I remember first playing the game:

1. Rayman in the human world. I break.

2. Rayman has a Rabbid voice. I fucking break.

3. The game feels rushed, recycled, and is plain boring in single player. Half the minigames are are utter bullshit, and in the end I was left with the realisation that the game was nothing but a quick money grab and has Rayman in it so it will sell.

Yes, TV Party was pretty terrible too, but at least I had a good time laughing at how bad it is. Kinda like sonic 06. RRR2 was just bad.
