Rayman 2 (PC)

This is the second adventure with Rayman, this time he's in 3D. As before the graphics are colourful and the sound effects and music are amazing. There are 20 levels to play all with a unique style and theme which will keep you playing for hours. Rayman is a cartoon styled character with arms, feet, head and a body but no arms and legs. He is played as a third person game, the camera angles are great and a rotate camera key can be used if the view is at an awkward position, the controls are slightly different to what I was used to in other third person games like Tomb Raider, but they are quite easy to get used to. In this adventure he encounters more weird ...  Read the complete review

Rayman two came included with the new PC i purchased the other day. Whilst i was messing about trying to get the CD copier to work i notice a load of cd's in a box, Rayman 2 was the first one i pulled out so i fired into the cd drive and loaded it up...and so it began! I played on it for about an hour just getting used to the controls and just pushing the limbless sole to his maximum capabilities. I left it for a few hours but i couldn't resist going back for more. But this time i was playing serious. I raced through the first level hungry for more of a challenge in the levels to come. So onto the second round which wasn't really ...  Read the complete review

Having Rayman on the palystation I decided on this game for the PC. The graphics are good (cartoon). As usual with the rayman games rayman has so good mannerisms, its quite diffiuclt in places and there is some spott on level design I found the controls easy to use and the collision detection is fine but I did notice a few doggy bits later in the game. Warp to another level now its fun. My brother can beat me pants down on this game and he is only seven. ...  Read the complete review

I played this a long time ago and it was annoying. The concept is fine as were the sound and graphics at the time. The flaw is the camera, it doesn't move with your character in the way you may expect it to. Whereas with most games the camera is positioned behind your character or through the eyes of the character as standard with the mouse permitting you to view different angles, this is not. The camera is free movement, it is not hooked on to the back of the character or the characters own view which is ridiculous. Rayman can fly, jump etc. and a lot of the levels require you to jump from and to different platforms to avoid hazards. There's nothing quite as ...  Read the complete review

Rayman 2 is an eclectic mix off stunning graphics, quality gamplay and an all round good game. It is visually stimulating and is jam packed with exciting and interesting things to do. The game follows on from Rayman 1 and gives you the oportunity to continue with Raymans milingering quest to save the world from devastation. After first playing the game I instantly decided that it was the best game I'd seen for a long time. I also noted that it was a great improvment from Rayman 1 where the graphics were 2D; although were still good. In the game you come across many characters, you have to fight the bad quys, free the little people and ...  Read the complete review
