I think you two are talking about different levels, due to the fact that Revolution swaps the "Beneath" moniker (which makes zero sense BTW).

Yeah, I'm well aware of its less than stellar rep, it's a 30 day pack-in anyways, so I'll deal with it at some point or another.

Best of luck getting rid of it Master, it's super clingy! Bit like me!

Oh shit, you're right. I was talking about the other sanctuary. The one that takes place after the Whale Bay. See, so unenjoyable I forgot the name. :oops2:

Ah, Stone and Fire. I admit, in my earliest runs of Rayman 2, I never liked going there.

I remember when my game file was erased and I had to start the game all over again, I actually left the game alone for almost a year because I hated that level so much.

I kinda liked it for the first thirty seconds, but then after that it just got to be really annoying.

That level is difficult, but once you get the hang of it, it becomes one of your favourites. It's stunning, truly.

Well, it is easy once you do play the level a lot, but it does drag out for a bit. Though, it does have one of my favorite areas from the game.

What I like most about the level is that one door that revolves around and then suddenly you're in a completely different area once you go through. That's so mindfuck and Indiana Jonesy that I enjoyed it tons in the past (and still do).

Stone and Fire is probably the most memorable level for me. Only level I was forced to play in two sittings because of its extreme difficulty. I absolutely loved this level, though. Very rewarding design.

Honestly, I don't remember any of the boss battles from Rayman 2 except the final battle with Razorbeard and how dizzy it made me. Honestly, I don't remember much from Rayman 2 aside from around the beginning and the end. :? I mean, don't get me wrong, I enjoyed playing the game, it just wasn't very memorable to me, apparently.

One of the worst bits is where you have to ride that shell and jump bits and do the loop-de-loop. Too hard if you ask me.

Yeah, I don't blame ya. This game is very short and easy. It really ain't that rewarding as well.

But once you get the hang of it, it's a neat feat. I love circles.

The worst bit is the jumping over the platforms, very hard to time right

Yeah but if you mess it up enough you loose too much life and then it becomes even harder!!

Best boss aside from Razorbeard was Froutch for me...the goodie gonig berserk and throwing flames at you while surrounded by lava.

Oh yeah Foutch is a really cool boss. I enjoyed that one quite a bit.
