Brand Spanking New 'Rayman Raving Rabbits' Wii Screenshots

I am so pumped for this game

Michel Ancel is back in charge (unlike the recent forgettable Rayman titles), and Rayman Raving Rabbits is also now a timed Wii exclusive, with Ubisoft ceasing development of the title for all other platforms until 2007.

The gameplay is apparently very diverse with platforming, fps & racer elements, in addition to the gamer having to physically dance using the wiimote in some levels to further within the game.

New screens & older but funny commercial below: (you have to see the commercial!!!!

)

See what I read from that is "jack of all trades, master of none". I heartily expect 17 different mediocre game types.

I've seen that trailer before, and it still doesn't actually look like a fun way to play a game. I'm also totally unconvinced that that's actually how you play the game, a lot of these trailers have the people doing crazy, stupid stuff, which I really doubt will actually happen in the games.

i might have to add this to the list of games i get first with the Wii

the ad is quite appealing and the gameplay does look very fun. im also pumped.

edit : nice mohawk, kid

the best thing about that trailer is the music in the first part, similar to rayman 2 (which was awesome).
if it's anything like that i'll be happy.

No no no! The hole in the couch WILL happen. That's what the bar on top of your TV is for

Nice looking Xbox game there.

Ouch.

That said, I still havent seen a 360 game as jaw-dropingly beautiful as Oddworld Stranger or Shadow of the Colossus. High res is nice (yes Ive seen them on bloody good tvs, just not my own) but a lot needs to be said for art direction.

I went from playing SoTC to Kameo, and art direction or not, god that game looks like balls.

Pat · Post by **Pat** » 16 Aug 2006 04:15 pm

Yeah, granted. But go from SoTC to Perfect Dark Zero and it looks like theyve used every special effect they can just for the sake of it. There is more to it than just good tech demos, thats all.

Hahaha it's true though. The game would probably look better through an SDTV than an HDTV, the scale is very impressive and all that, but the framerate is absolutely shocking, and how bad do the textures look? Shimmery goodness. God I've love a next-gen version of that game.

Jizz: Uhhhhhh.... what?

I keep reading your comment as kamoe looking like balls, don't mind me, i'm dumb

Sonic Jam · Post by **Sonic Jam** » 16 Aug 2006 05:26 pm

I think SOTC is one of the best looking PS2 games, the framerate might suck but man..... what they are doing is just insane.

SotC looks like balls? Wash your mouth out, Milo. It's 10/10 as is.

So a shitty framerate is ok?
i'm confused S_J!?

Have you played the game Jizzy?

It's like complaining about the framerate in a JRPG, it didn't have any effect on the game at all.

but the framerate in the saints row demo is comparable to that in the gta games, didn't stop millions of people enjoying it.

I dont like the religious overtones in Saints Row. They could feature double-anal-fisting with hacksaws in 1080p detail and I wouldnt consider it as offensive as a lecture on finding jesus.
