LOL Spiral looks like you haven't used the internet long enough.

and if I were you I wouldn't look this up.
I'm glad that the original plot got dropped too.

I googled "goatse". It seems to be some kind of "shock site", judging by the little extract from Wikipedia that came up. Though I will accept Stacey's advice and not try and find out more.

A little bad news to report.
I was in town today and read the latest issue of Retro Gamer, which had a review of Rayman 1 as a PS3 download; but they gave it a score 60%, mainly picking on the controls and playability. I can't remember what they exactly said, but to summarise they said that it hasn't stood the test of time as far as the gameplay is concerned. I know what some of you are gonna think, but don't rage.

....eh, I'm fine.
BTW, on ign, R1 GBC got a 9, while the original got a 7.5.

The same. Just like how all of the downloads on the VC are exactly the same as the original games.

Of course. But I meant the graphics, music and that.

That makes me feel very, very angry...
R1 as a PS3 download is identical to R1 PS1, isn't it?
R1 PS1 gave Ubi the financial groundings to become a major games developing company.
R1 is also the bestselling PS1 game in the UK.
"Test of time" = Bullshit
So what if they change the controls? They're configurable...hey, wait a second,
did they change the R1 controls for the PS3 download? And if so, what did they change?

I knew you'd get worked up over that. I did the same when I was your age, whenever I read a bad review for a Rayman game I used to CRY. Just remember that like the reviews you see on the internet, magazine reviews are just the opinions of one person [per game]. What matters most is what YOU think of a game.

Yes; but I was like, 14 back then. But as I grew up I found that it's more important to believe in yourself then some fat British guy.

Okay, now we are done joking.
What changes did they make between R1 PS1 and the R1 PS3 download?
I want to know.
Seriously.
Tell meh.

I weren't joking.
And since I've never owned a PS3 and most likely won't own for for at least a few years [very happy with my wii <3], I have no idea!

In the PS1 disc version, the controls are configurable.
So, are there any actual differences?

Hey I just joined this forum.
Rayman 1 is so underrated. The bad reviews it gets are BS. And why the GBC version got 9/10 that's a lot of rubbish. The GBC game is nothing compared to the main Rayman 1 game. I think it's because the reviewer sucked at the game so he blamed it for being too difficult. Rayman GBC was too easy.
Rayman 1 ftw 10/10.

I AGREE WITH DINGODILE555 100%!!!!!
But I'd give R1 infinity out of minus infinity(the most ridiculously high score imagineable)!
*gives dingodile555 100 tings*
