I think I love the intro of RL, the way that Polokus is talking and explaining the things. I don't know, I just think it simply nicely made :D.

The voice is rather decent as well, it sounds similar to his Raymanian, but in English.

That's a good enough opening with some pretty nice animation. Basically shit hits the fan and that causes chaos. Simple. But can I still have a complex story pls??

Maybe, if Ratchet and Clank can still go strong with reasonably complex plots, perhaps Rayman might be able to rise to the occasion, though 3D platformers with more complex stories seem to be rather thin compared to days of old.

Apparently a majority of the community wants a good story.

The Lucky Ticket seems like a great idea, and a pretty cool implementation of the Wii U's touchscreen. Maaaaaaaaan this game was totally made for the Wii U. For some reason, Ubisoft didn't know the difference between an unpolished new IP (Zombi U) and a well known mascot with a critically acclaimed legacy, so they decided to go multiplatform. Oh well, at least everyone can enjoy it now, I guess, that's fine!

I just wonder... what would have happened if Rayman Legends kept as an exclusive? The console would have sold more?... or the game would have been a commercial failure? We may never know. It could have been an interesting way to test Rayman's relevance in today's industry... after all, Sonic fans are gonna swallow Wii U's just for Sonic Lost World (except for those kids who whine because Sonic isn't in realistic environments anymore)

A complex story in a Rayman game? didn't that happen already in Rayman Origins? The results were pretty chaotic.

Some crazy rap about Rayman Legends and Rayman in general.

I'm probably a dumb shit or something but I think "complex" can either mean an overplotted mess or a story with moderate amount of stuff in it. RO tried to go with the latter one in the ol' days, but then the writers started to fuck around for some reason, resulting in madness.

The story of Rayman Origins was its Achille's heel.

Speaking about rap... Rayman Legends just released a free beatbox game:

You can basically screw around with the musical instruments of a few songs from the game... and make your own tunes.

That beatbox app is pretty cool! Even though the quality is pretty rubbish, I guess I'll have to rip stuff from it too. :)

I love this Flash game :) It's better than Slap Flap & Go.

The only thing that sucks are the loading times.

The Ranting Robots made a review for Rayman Legends.



It's interesting to point out that the game received two scores. An 8.6 for the Wii U version and an 8.0 for the other versions. Looks like the miiverse interactions, the innovative gamepad gimmicks, the exclusive challenge room and the exclusive skins helped the score.
