He's working on King Kong?

And that's a next-gen game, right?
*sniff sniff*
I predict Rayman 4 coming in... late 2007 or early 2008.

But who the hell cares anyway?

I'd rather play Halo 3, and then play Halo 4 when Microsoft releases it the day Sony releases PSP2.

*sighs*
Rayman 4, I mean, what else are they going to do? If it's got no online play, UbiSoft will regret ever making a Rayman game again. It was very popular until 2001, really. Then many people just stopped caring, and I don't blame them.
Not to be negative towards Rayman, but, the general public could care less about Rayman nowadays. The kids play Katamari, Mario, and the movie license games, the age group above that plays Ratchet, Jak, and Sly, and then the older people play Halo and GTA, and those other games.
I was surprised when I sold Rayman 3 at GameStop for $6.60 (my mom had bought two of the same game by accident, I knew it was time to get rid of the extra one), and I doubt anyone would care to buy a game like that anymore.
I don't blame Michel for working on bigger things. People recognize King Kong more than they'll ever think of playing Rayman, and that's the sad truth, really.

UbiSoft has said that the game will definitely be out before 2007, and they wouldn't make a statement like that if they didn't know for sure that it was true.
By the way, Jackson's parents didn't give him the name Jackson, they gave him the name PETER.

And his surname is JACKSON! His parents could've easily changed it.

I think this is getting a bit stupid. I've resigned from big arguments in these forums, so trying to argue with me is like kicking a dead man. I don't care.
It's obvious that his parents didn't think, 'Let's call him Jackson', as they would have done this automaticall. No-one just changes their son's surname for no reason.
Also, let's just say that Michael Jackson wasn't
quite was he is now when Peter Jackson was born.
I had never made the link between Peter Jackson and Michael Jackson, myself. I call it 'over-reactive-American-news-channels-who-have-run-out-of-any-proper-news, trying-to-make-a big-story-out-of-something-that-isn't, resulting-in-everyone-getting-hyped-up-about-the-name-'Jackson' syndrome'. Unfortunately it is highly contageous and can hitch rides on the back of Planes, so it has started to spread rapidly into many other countries, too...
Ah well. Let's get back OnT.

Honestly, he's the creator of Rayman. I think quite a few people would like to know whether or not he's working on Rayman 4...

But that he works on some random game doesn't necessarily mean he can't work on R4. But I'm going crazy if in the end, R2 was the last game Ancel worked on.
Anyway, she was here to say she didn't give a shit, which is perfectly alright. And to be honest, 'king kong', I don't give a damn either...

What am I meant to say, 'Michel Ancel is working on something else'. Of course I'm going to mention that it's King Kong that he happens to be working on

.
Anyway, the posts in here seem to be mainly grumpy. *Sprinkles happy dust*.

Yeah, I agree with you Jona - I don't think that Ancel will never return to Rayman. However, if he's working on King Kong which looks almost finished, he must have been working on it for some time, which means he wasn't giving Rayman 4 his full attention. However, he did assist the Rayman team whilst working on BG&E, so perhaps he did a little bit on this game, too...
I guess we'll just have to wait. Which I'm terrible at.
*Looks at watch*.

Perhaps there are interviews with him about King Kong, in which they ask him about other projects as well... it could be a source.
