.co.uk Review
-------------
Transferred from the 2-D platform that we all knew and loved,
Rayman 2 has successfully managed to make the transition to the
realms of 3-D. Although offering no great leaps in the
gameplaying world, it's nice to see a fun game that satisfies the
small child in all of us.
The challenge of the game is your standard 3-D platform idea.
You play the infamous Rayman, who has been imprisoned by the
Robo-Priates who have captured and enslaved your world. Your
task, with the help of your friends, is to escape and save the
planet through a series of puzzles and levels.
The feel of this game is strange, as there are no new elements,
and you possess the usual armoury of weapons. The genre isn't new
either and at times you can see the combined forces of games such
as C Bandicoot, Sonic and Mario all at work. But Rayman 2
manages to pull off the amazing feat of actually being a great
game, and although you've seen it all before you can't help but
play on.
Everything has a lovely sheen in this game. The graphics are
great, and boast details that Disney would be proud of. Everybody
from Rayman's best friend Globox to the weird and wonderful
Teensies all have their part to play as you go on your journey
offering plenty of light comedy moments and you can't help but
laugh when they begin to talk in some nonsense language only for
Rayman to shout "Yahoo" at the end of everything.
We have already seen games like this many times before, but this
one has such an appealing gloss that you end up with a game that
is better to play and beats its competitors. If you fancy the
idea of sitting down to some addictive innocent fun then Rayman 2
is perfect for both children and adults alike.--Stuart Miles
