According to UbiSoft, Arena an M are same games.
Not sure about Rush. It looks like a half port for PS1

Rayman M, Arena and Rush are ALL different games.. The tracks are them same, but everything else differs.

Well to put it:
Rayman M (PC, PS2) = Rayman Arena (PC, PS2) (Barring the exclusive LAN on Arena PC)

Besides that, they're all different.

They should do a HD remake of this game like AoE B-)

Alongside the other Rayman games (and properly done, not like Rayman 3HD).

Yeah, that elucidates everything. My theory was that Rayman M (PC, PS2) and Rayman Arena (xBox, GC) are different.

That would be really great.

It really wasn't up to scratch, some compare it with Rayman DS as one of the worst ports done in the Rayman series, it had various graphical glitches, and one heck of a game breaking glitch as well.

Weren't the textures also actually worse than before?

I've barely ever seen good HD remake. Most of the time it's a waste of money. Serious Sam HD was good though.

I own the Jak HD collection, and barring one quirk, it's pretty much a quality HD port.

If the older Rayman games would ever be remade, they would not only need a hd remake, but every element of them had to be redone, the levels, the characters, textures etc.

So it would be more of a remaster than remake, though I'd love to see Rayman 1 with high quality artwork that would do well on HD screens.

Not that remasterization Ubi said to have done with R3HD's musics. :P

They claimed to have done up the musical quality? I can't remember that, could you remind this ol' codger?

Even Droolie ( i think it was he) confirmed that it is the same audio as in Rayman 3.

Our team has been planning this as a side-project for quite a while now. While I can't say any more than that for the time being, it is something we'll be working on.

I think they did make some minor changes. If I'm right, it's either one or multiple of these three:

- Not all tracks were exported in 44.1khz; some were in 22.05
- They upgraded the quality from 44.1 to 48k
- Not all versions of the game ran in 44.1khz

In fact, all of these might be incorrect, yet they all ring a bell for some reason.

Hopefully, it wont end like Sonic2HD. Well as long as none of people uses some DRM protection it will be fine. Sonic2HD could not be saved because one programmer from team implemented some DRM before he left development.
