-------------------
If you've already played Rayman 2 on the Dreamcast, Nintendo 64
or PSone, don't despair: the makers have added all-new levels to
Rayman Revolution and have improved the gameplay from previous
versions. For those who haven't played Rayman 2, you're in luck,
as Rayman returns in this 3-D adventure game that will keep you
hopping through several graphically stunning game environments.
Fans of Sonic, Mario and other platform games will enjoy the
familiar gameplay. While the French-created Rayman character may
not be as recognizable as Sonic or Mario, he does bear a distinct
animated look, managing to keep it together despite the lack of
any body limbs to connect his head, hands and feet.
.co.uk Review
-------------
Five years ago, the 3-D platform genre was exciting, as titles
like C Bandicoot and Mario 64 ruled the console roost. Since
then, we have seen the 3-D platform genre fill up with a few
copycats and some outright stinkers. However, there have been a
few classics in the intervening years, such as Banjo-Tooie. Now
Rayman 2: Revolution can join the club.
Like past instalments, Rayman 2: Revolution borrows gameplay
elements from a variety of different sources, but they are
sources worth borrowing from. Several elements from Rayman 2: The
Great Escape have been pilfered, including a similar story line.
Revolution has a good combination of beautiful graphics, great
controls, and enhanced gameplay. This will astound hard core
gamers and those new to the hobby. There is enough puzzle
solving, lever pulling, item collecting and platform jumping
action to keep even the most ardent platform enthusiast busy for
quite some time.
Admiral Razorbeard and his army of robots have enslaved the
planet, and it's your job in Revolution to help Rayman search for
pieces of the Primordial Core and summon Polokus to get rid of
the robotic pirates. The levels are the same as in The Great
Escape, but, due to the power of the PS2 and the detail put into
reworking the levels for the game, they look spectacular. Ubi
Soft has mixed old-school gameplay with graphical power, and
mixed together those ingredients make this game a must-play for
gamers of all ages.
Despite the borrowed elements from The Great Escape, Revolution
for the PS2 offers up plenty of new thrills that will make the
hearts of platform gamers skip a beat, just like the first time
they played Mario 64 or C Bandicoot. It looks like this time,
Rayman will finally get the respect he deserves. --Todd Mowatt
