Thanks, I may just do that.

Several months back I've debated about this issue, and I think it was a smart choice making Rayman with R3 design. Who said the game would just be for kids only? Most of the veteran Rayman fans here in the forum are in average, pre- young adults.
I don't know, but I've seen many interviews with Ancel where he's said that this new game has been designed mainly with kids in mind. Although at the same time, he has also said that it contains quite a few nods to the first game and that it would be something that would appeal greatly to fans of the first game. I'll be honest, I was never a fan of Rayman in 3D. The second game (and third) was good, don't get me wrong, but for me it never came remotely close to matching the original. And yes, perhaps 'silly' was the wrong word to describe my initial impression of 'Origins'. At the end of the day, it looks VERY similar to the first game, it has the same number of levels, it features enemies from the first games and you can rescue Electoons again. That, for me, is the Rayman game that I never thought I'd ever see again.
Is it just me, or have they brought back the level from the 2D beta version of Rayman 2 that was playable at the end of Rayman 2? Some of the screenshots seem to show a grassy area with waterfalls and lakes in the background, which looks very similar to the beta level. I absolutely adored that level and hoped that one day we might get to see what the rest of the game would have been like.
But anyway, I'm a 21 year old male and will happily admit to being a huge fan of Rayman, Oddworld, Crash Bandicoot (first two games) and even Bomberman. I'm also a big fan of Kula World. The early to mid 90's spawned so many great games, I'm just glad that I never sold my original Playsation console, as I still play all of them today.
