Yes, Sonic! Nice one.

I'm being a bit devious and waiting until it drops to a tenner. I've played it to death at a mate's so I can wait.

Well mine is going to take a month to get here (according to Zavi) so you might well get it for a tenner and delivered before i get mine

I played the demo on your recommendation mate and loved it
Im a big Sonic/Mario fan so love me some 2d platforming - was never a fan of the original Raymans but the demo played wonderfully

Its brilliant isn't it? You're actually tempting me not to wait for a further price drop. I might just drop some notes on this one right now... :mrgreen:

The soundtrack is utter quality. You can really tell how much attention the game has received in all areas. The art-style is perfect as well.

Ok so the other week i got round to finishing this game
Played the hell out of it and traded it in (got a tenner back !!!)

This game was utterly fantastic , the soundtrack was sooooo catchy it annoyed me for days as i couldnt shift some of the tunes out of my head
The animation and graphics are second to nothing - top shelf

The level design from start to finish is superb and full of imagination and ingenuinty
The game stands firmly as a full price 2d platform game which is worth your attention
The difficulty goes up throughout - the game is no wal over and by the end you will be an expert with all of Raymans abilities

From a strong Sonic/Mario fan who never liked the older Raymans , this game is the business and stands not only as high as Sonic Generations / New Super Mario Bros , but in places actually surpasses them

In platforming terms this game is "hall of fame" quality buy it now folks

Well they kept that quiet. There's no Dolby Digital on the Ps3 version of Rayman Origins whilst the XBOX360 has it. Probably not a big deal for most people but I've been playing my games with surround sound since 2001, and this is THE game that is absolutely perfect for DD. Possibly the best game score / soundtrack in recent years and they mess with the sound, whilst the DEMO on the PS3 has Dolby Digital! Absolute frigging disgrace. I'd be tempted to send the game back but I got the game for under a tenner and I can't be bothered with the returns process.
