Most magical Rayman moment ever

What do you think is the most magical Rayman moment ever?
For me, it was probably when I was wandering around the Sanctuary of Stone and Fire in Rayman Revolution, and thinking of all the secret rooms behind the walls that we'll never get to see...sometimes I wonder if the Forgotten Dungeon from Rayman M could be hidden through a caved-in passageway or something...and then I think back to those vast cave backgrounds in Rayman 1, and it makes me wonder how vast Rayman's world must be...
What do YOU think is the most magical moment in the Rayman games?

I think there's no most magical moment, you like it at all or not. That's all. That's why we love Rayman games, because they are magical from start till end, and that's why we hate Rabbids because they far away from that quality.

Exactly the same thing for me. This is by far my favourite level, and I remember thinking about those secret rooms, about the history of the Sanctuary, who built it, when and why, how... What a funny coincidence though

Have you played the original game, Mr Dark?
Anyway.. I dont know if you mean in the game or not, but if not then the day last year when I bought Rayman 10th anniversary for GBA.. I've only been a 'fan' of Rayman since then, I got that game and it was indescribably awesome. I remembered playing the original game at my friends house yeeears ago and vaguely playing Rayman 2 or 3 but I never interested in them. I mainly grew up with Crash Bandicoot and Pokemon so I didnt really get into any other series except them. Now I can understand for myself how great Rayman is!
As for in-game.. the ending of Rayman 1, so epic!

Why do you prefer the GBC version? (not saying I don't like it, just wondering what reasons you have)

It was the first I ever played. And at that time, it was by far the the best game I have EVER played. I don't know, maybe it's because it has a special place in my heart. It just feels better than the original. (to me it does.)

Rayman 1 PS1 was good too. It's my second favorite Rayman game.

Yeah. Gotta love the originality. The characters, the universe, the magic...

I think the music is a sort of extension of the characters, the worlds, the magic...
I think that Umber's music is just so...Umberish...it's slow, and heavy, and deep...
The Hall of Doors music is just pure magic, which Eric Chevalier somehow digitally encoded on a disc in the form of music...
Some of the Fairy Council music is as magical as the music in Rayman 2(I think that the Fairy Council was designed as a way of easing people from the R2 style world into the R3 style world, because the Fairy Council was mentioned in R2, it has R2's magic style, it has Murfy and the Grand Minimus, it has the Heart of the World etc.)
I really love the Rayman 1 music, and it remains my all-time favourite music...I think that the R1 tracks were given pretty poor names on Raytunes.
I love the R3 snowboarding music...first time I played it, I thought that Rayman was actually going to board all the way to the moons!
When I play Rayman, I sometimes wonder why Mario hasn't been banned for distracting people from the wonders of Rayman...

I know what you mean. Mario gets so much more attention but Rayman is the true god of platforming!

Michel Ancel, creator of Rayman, is the most awesome guy who ever lived.
If there was a religion worshipping him, I would join straight away.
