Scroll right to the bottom of the page to see that Rayman Arena is listed there; ten dollars. It's a PS2 classic so it won't have trophies or anything.

Characters:
Tily → Betilla
Razorwife → Space Mama
Henchman 1000 → Mr Dark
Dark Rayman → Bad Rayman
Yes. It's just yes.

However, this I cannot agree with. It would be awesome to see Band Land, Picture City and the Candyland Château return, but I loved every single level in Rayman M equally (except that third Battle Level in the first league - that's ok but not terrific and frankly a little too small). I esepcially enjoyed Zenith Harbour (which has also been discussed to be lame) mainly because it features Warships. Warships! I can almost guess by looking at who posted that they disliked Zentith Harbour that it correlates with a dislike or 'meh-ness' towards Rayman 2. Curious, but I can see why. It carries a lot of R2's atmosphere over, but not as much as some of the other levels do (Rise and Shine, First Ruins and especially the Lava Factory).

Don't worry dear, I love the beach levels too. :)

Ugh, that track. It's hilarious in its own way, but I find it just a bit embarrassing for the fact that you have to hear it every time you race with her.

Then again Rayman Rush was a pretty lazy port anyways.

We can say that it is Rayman M/Arena cutted in half (considering only the races half) but also a kind of a "candy" to PS1 owners that didn't have a PS2 at the time of Rayman M/Arena's release.

I wouldn't say that the game is quite lazy (There are hardware limitations), I think that for Rayman fans it is an enjoyable game, and good to play ocasionally either alone or with a Rayman that is equally a Rayman fan. If we include multiplayer and a high skill level in the races of Rayman M/Arena/Rush, you get 5 hours of fun and longevity. After, there's nothing much.

I guess maybe not lazy per say then, more of... Eh. I can't think of it. But I was a bit surprised to hear that it was released 4 weeks or so after M and Arena were released.

Rayman M and Arena are almost exactly the same. Rush M and Arena have most of the same races. There are new races in the Arena and M but most of them are in all the 3 games.
