Eurogamer review:

http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2013-08-26-rayman-legends-review

The platform game has been around for so long that it's easy to assume that the genre has run out of surprises. A showcase for the game designer's art and one of the greatest platform games of this - or any - year, Rayman Legends disproves that in glorious style. From its gorgeous visuals to its painstaking design to its abundant generosity, it shows once and for all that "hardcore gaming" is about style, flair and good, old-fashioned challenge - not how many pixels of brain matter you can spray across the screen.

 

IGN review:

Rayman Legends is a delightful platformer, and one of the best I’ve ever played. Thanks to clever level design that toys with genre conventions, it gets incredible mileage out of four basic moves. And with great local co-op and dozens of unlockables – including stages from Rayman Origins, special character skins, and mini-games – there’s a lot to do. The difficulty is so smoothly balanced that it can be played with with kids or adult friends and still have a great time.

Both visually and mechanically, Rayman Legends consistently sparks the imagination. The co-op play on the Wii U is something that really must be experienced, and while the implementation isn't a perfect fit on other platforms, it does little to hold the game back. While we certainly wouldn't advocate carbon copies, we hope Rayman Legends paints a vision for other 2D games to follow.

IGN gave it 9.5 which is really really big.



So it is happening...PS4 preorder.

Greatness Awaits!

No surprise :)
Gonna have a blast when it arrives.



Not shocking. ONM has it at 92 FYI.



 

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

Could easily become the best 2D platformer of the generation. Origins got very close to the current king imo, which is Donkey Kong Country Returns.

Pre-ordered months ago and I'm looking forward to beat it coop with my family and then play the shit out of it solo until I get the platinum.



Game of the year 2017 so far:

Niiice. May end up getting it earlier than expected.



opm uk gave it 9



PS One/2/p/3slim/Vita owner. I survived the Apocalyps3/Collaps3 and all I got was this lousy signature.


Xbox One: What are you doing Dave?

From what I've read, the Wii U is the way to go on this one.

Anyone surprised?

Two german magazines which I think aren't on metacritic, Eurogamer.de and Gameswelt, give it a FUCKING 10 OUT OF 10!!
