now go play origins,.. it's even better!

both are awesome games though. best platformer on the recent market imo.


You do get a lot of origins for free in legends.  40 levels I think.

OT

Legends is the best 2d platformer I have played in a very, very long time.

 


umm.. sort of.  yes they are origins levels but they aren't the "full" level and they are remixed to focus on collecting teensies and lums.  but yeah, looked it up and 40 is right.

You can unlock Rayman Origins within the game also!!

Leagues above any recent 2d or 3d Mario.The amount of care aplied to each level is stunning.I can't stop playing the chalenges mode.Nintendo could take many lessons from them or for the good of 2d Mario games...copy them.


Though I do agree with you in terms of quality, I don't see why they should. Mario games still sell amazingly well, while Rayman games struggle to sell at all. The consumers make their choices and reward Ninty's decision to keep them as they are (imho Mario 3d Land is a disappointing 7/10 game and Rayman legends a 9.5). Why copy them when consumers will buy Mario over Rayman regardless of quality?



Both Origins and Legend are great games. Probably one of the best 2D platformers in a long time. It's astounding to see how many people have missed them.

wii U is the best version
murphy stages are genial
and also, is the best wii U game.


Vita version is the definitive version. It includes all the levels (including the touch screen screen murphy levels that the WiiU has) plus 5 exclusive levels for the Vita.


But i think the vita version doesn't have local/online co op, while the console versions do. Also, I think in the console versions you don't have to use Murphy who's annoying as hell to use.

Rayman Legends is a great game. But donkey kong is still better as a 2d platformer.



I also recently took a chance on Legends, since I had nothing else to do until Titanfall. I'd never played a Rayman game before, and always assumed that they were like Diet Coke versions of Mario games. Man was I wrong! Rayman Legends has consumed me for the past week. I absolutely love it, and am enjoying it far more than any 2D Mario game I ever played.

I think the thing that puts it over the Mario 2D platformers is the level of difficulty and the amount of content. I found most of the recent Mario games to be short and easy. Legends doesn't have that problem.



Same here.This game totally went under my radar last year, but recently I started checking it out and got it for my PS4.

No regrets, and I love there´s no load time, which is my main complaint about Tropical Freeze.

Vita version does indeed have co-op (both local via Ad-Hoc and LAN). I should know since I've used it a few times. Also the WiiU version also has the annoying Murphy levels so you're wrong on that bit.

Sorry, I meant on ps3/360/xb1/ps4 you don't have to use murphy, which is great. Also, does Rayman Legends have online co op on psvita (is that what LAN means)? Only played single player, so I wouldn't know. I'm tempted to rebuy it on ps3 just so that I can play with a a flatmate (I'd need  a second vita and a second copy of rayman legends for that).
