Rayman Origins “10 Ways To Win” Helps A Lot (But You STILL Need To Buy The Game First!)

Posted on November 21, 2011 by geelw

UbiSoft wants to assist in any way they can, so here you go. From what I played, the game is gorgeous, laugh out loud funny and at times, hard as hell in a joyous old-school manner. Pinpoint platforming, multiplayer action, tons of levels and ridiculous replay value are all here on the game disc, so what are you waiting for? If you say “Um, a few hints on how to win the game?” You get a tin cup and some dark glasses, kid. Now get off my lawn…

Rayman Origins’ New Trailer Makes Me Hungry…

Posted on October 22, 2011 by geelw

Who know there was a Food Universe? Well, that aside (and my stomach now rumbling for something from the fridge), this latest Rayman Origins footage shows off a new area, one that I happened to play at New York Comic Con last week. The jumping is tricky old-school platforming goodness, but the game has a nice “revival” system in play so that it’s not a controller-bashing experience. The game is looking great with tons of color, inventive, funny gameplay and tons of things to see and do. This one deserves to be in EVERY gamer library once it ships, so do UbiSoft (and Rayman) a favor and BUY it, folks…

Rayman Origins "Around The World" Trailer

Posted on September 27, 2011 by geelw

Awesome and funny new trailer from the upcoming retro-flavored (but decidedly modern) platformer set to hit PS3, Xbox 360 and Wii soon enough. Poke around on the official site for more on this fresh take on classic gameplay. If this game doesn’t make you smile, you’re a hopeless dope who needs an anvil dropped gently on your head. Or some rat named Ignatz aiming a brick at you from throwing distance (POW!!!). Tough love always wins over the hard-headed, I say…

Gamescom 2011: Rayman Origins Trailer Is Nostalgia Of The Best Possible Kind

Of all the UbiSoft games I’ve seen this year, I’m most looking forward to playing Rayman Origins. I still have my Atari Jaguar copy of the game (I’d be playing it again, but I need another Jaguar) and remember how amazed I was back then. RO is pure fun and just amazing in how it brings together all of what makes platforming games so great while being highly accessible to anyone who want to pick up a controller. Here’s hoping all three versions (PS3, Xbox 360 and Wii) do well – I want to see this one pop up on the Vita as well, but I guess that’s for the bean counters to decide in a bit. November 15 is just around the corner, so make sure you get this one…
