awesome!! maybe an addition to the very few ''worth playing'' Wii games of 2011 (so far), like Kirby, Xenoblade, Rune Factory Oceans and maybe Spyro

when Zelda is released, and The Last Story along with Pandora's Tower hit Europe, it will be a ''not bad at all'' year for JRPG Wii lovers - me : )

(although we had a long time with now games, which ruined the whole thing)

I don't have much time to play games lately anyway, studying is killing the gamer inside me... : P



don't mind my username, that was more than 10 years ago, I'm a different person now, amazing how people change ^_^

This is so cool. I really wish it would have been a 3D platformer instead but more Rayman is always nice.

Yes, though you´ll have to wait months, while the PS3 version comes out 2 weeks from now..but with the amount of great games coming out, I´m sure you´ll manage just fine :)

Yep exactly! with my studies and games like Uncharted, Infamous Festival of Blood etc..this year is kinda set for me already. from the gameplay vids the game looked beautiful on the OLED and looked like a game that could be fun on the go

Got that right...2D platformers and handhelds are a perfect match!

Wow. UC3, Sonic Generations, MGS Collection, and now Rayman Origins?

$200+ for this month alone. If this goes on, I'll need a loan :D

Great news! Will definitely be picking up the PS3 version sometime down the road.

Who would have thought that this would be in the runnings for game of the year with all the other games out there!


Only if it turns out to be your personal nomination.

When it comes to GOTY awards from all these gaming sites and magazines..pigs will fly before they consider a 2D platformer a 'worthy' contender...or am I wrong here?
