LOL Shadow Plain looks like some sort of cheesy movie background.



At 0:07, who's the red Globox on the TV screen and why does the strawberry Globox have so many pictures of him?
At 0:13, what is Jawbox?
At 0:16, why does Globox have Henchman 800's head on a stick and two dead Teensies hanging from the ceiling? (And also a Murfy voodoo doll on the door at 0:17?)



What's the song in the background?
Why has Tily got Rayman's shoes at 0:04? (And what looks like another Rayman in the closet, visible at 0:07?)



0:03 shows Henchman 1000 reading 'Robhot' magazine (while charging up a freeze shot, probably). Also note the other robot on the wall with a love heart on it...



0:03 shows three pictures on the wall. One is Razorbeard, one looks like Cookie from TAS and the one in the middle looks a bit like Razorwife, but the lighting isn't right so we can't see it.
0:09 has a picture that looks like a possible son of Razorbeard. Also note the fist in the top-left corner. Since all the other trophies of Razorbeard are carved to look like him, why has he got Rayman's one?
Another fist at 0:13.
Who's on the wall and door at 0:17?
Why is it snowing at 0:18 when it isn't at 0:01?

If you could answer these questions, I'd be grateful.

All of these videos are too blurry to make any definitive conclusions about anything. We need lots of high-resolution screenshots.

Do not worry. They will come eventually.

Video 1:

- Second 7 - Unfortuneatly the video quality doesn't allow us to see better but apparently it is a Globox with a "good shape", and the photos are kind of a way to remind the Strawberry Globox about the goal he wants to achieve. If it is not, it is possibily an idol from him.

- Second 13 - Good question. Maybe a playword of "Jukebox"?

- Second 16 - A "trophy" of beating his adversaries and getting a limb/corpse of them, for sure.

- Second 17 - If you don't know what Voodoo dolls are for, it is to torture the victim that is represented on the doll. In this case, if the Yellow-Suited Globox stabbed a knife on the foot of the Murfy Voodoo Doll, the real Murfy would feel a stab on his foot.

Video 2:

- Second 4 - It is possible that she must have stolen them, knowing her personality. Unless they are just equal shoes to Rayman's.

The music is from the Teensies when they run in one of the leagues (The Beginner League if I'm not in error).

Video 3:

- Second 3 - Probabily a joke about magazines like Playboy, FHM and so on. But with naked robots with tonified "muscles".

Video 4:

- Second 3 - Indeed, it looks like the ones you told yes... but if that's really Cookie, I wonder if exists a connection among them (or if it is a reference to the TAS only).

- Second 9 - It can be a possible son as it can be Razorbeard when he was younger.

- Second 17 - Another good question. It can be Razorbeard in a different body, a relative or any other entity from the same robot race.

- Second 18 - Because there's a fridge on the room and the other not. The fridge room must be at 0ºC or minus to that area being snowing.

1: I know how voodoo dolls work btw
2: Do you think Jawbox could be another reference to the voodoo dolls, dead Teensies and robot head?
3: Do you think that this could be an impression of Globox's jaw?
4: The Teensies' music is different in the PS2 version of the game, as is Tily's (check Raytunes). The first few seconds of the video doesn't sound anything like any theme I've heard.

Because it is the music you listen if you are taking too much time in passing one track phase (The phases, together, make the full race track).

Oh, right. THAT music.

I just realized in video 3 at 0:07, there are targets with Rayman and Globox on the background. Do you think maybe that these were the ideas for the ones in Rayman 3?

That's a possibility.

If you look closely at the closet/locker thingy next to tily it's actually a pile of Rayman's shoes. o_e
I guess they use the same brand of shoes. xD
I also noticed on the back of my Rayman 2: Revolution, and my R2: TGE (ps1) case there's a sketchers logo, and in the advertisement for R2: TGE (for the ps1, the one were everyone in the world loses their limbs), the sketchers logo is seen at the end. Coincidence anyone? I'm assuming that Rayman's shoes are sketchers or something? Maybe they had some sort of thing and sketchers had R2 shoes in real life?

Edit: the proof

I've always thought of Rayman 2's shoes as Converse All-Stars.

Raymale, since you have the Rayman 2: Revolution game can you answer me to a question?

Do the in-game voices contain the Spanish language? Or it is still there the German language?

Lemme check. gotta start up my ps2, and plug it into my laptop.
Okay, got it: Well according to my NTSC version of the game there's English, French, Dutch, Italian, and Spanish.

OK but I think it is quite odd that in NTSC version, Spanish voices do not exist, and still remain the German voices. Thanks for clearing up my doubt.

The same person who uploaded the rayman arena murphy videos re-uploaded one of them in perfect crystal clear quality, but it's in spanish.

I already knew that.

I can't wait for a big update in the GameCube emulator, I really want to fully play Rayman Arena on it. Like that I could also record a full walkthrough for Youtube.

Deutsch is German, not Dutch.

WHAT? You can plug the PS2 into the laptop? How?

The window said AmCap or something so it's most likely a video capture device but I don't know. We use something similar for the Japanese Dreamcast footage.

I hope the next updates of the PS2 emulator fully correct the FPS in RR, because the game here runned almost perfectly.

Does anyone know how to get to the one battle bonus round in the original version? (Rayman M and Arena for PS2) I beat every battle mode challenge and nothing happened.
