Forums - Gaming - IGN-Review Rayman Origin... Rayman is back Baby!!!

Closing Comments
In a blockbuster holiday season of M-rated war games, it’s refreshing to see something so different and special as Rayman Origins. It’s downright gorgeous and a total blast to play alone or with friends. A truly realized vision at the top of its genre, Rayman Origins is an extravaganza with plenty of action to keep it fresh from start to finish and beyond.
IGN Ratings for Rayman Origins (PS3)
Rating Description
out of 10 Click here for ratings guide
9.5 Presentation
The story is bare bones, but you’re not here for that. From the quirky characters to the treasure map hub world and incredible locales, Rayman exudes style and never lets up the hilarity.
10 Graphics
Ubisoft drew up a one of a kind style and stuck to it to create one of the prettiest and downright pleasing video games ever created.
9.0 Sound
The soundtrack matches the pacing and presentation perfectly by each stage, but the inane babbling of some of the secondary characters can feel a little repetitive.
9.5 Gameplay
Excellent controls, laugh out loud co-op and a great sense of challenge and accomplishment. This is platforming at its finest.
9.0 Lasting Appeal
No online multiplayer, but get some friends together and this is one of the meatiest games in its league with tons to explore, unlock and revisit.
9.5
OVERALL
Amazing

Great Score!
And as I said in the Mario 3D Land thread, I'm so glad platformers are at their finest this holiday, and I will enjoy both Mario Land and Rayman.

yeah i think i am gonna change my preorder from Assassins creed to Rayman, but sad the thing is that it won't sell the amount it deserves



Got a 9.5 in Nintendo Power as well.

Going to be another stellar holiday season for platformers, with Kirby's Return to Dreamland, Sonic Generations, Super Mario 3D Land, and Rayman Origins. The thing I love most about this generation is the resurgence of the Platformer. It's a beautiful thing.



Is this on the wii or the DS?

It will release simultaneously on the Wii/PS3/360 this year and release on the 3DS/PSVita next year.
