This was such a good game. What happened to the trailer with Snoop Dogg though?

I already did!

Those 8-Bit levels were the death of me.

I just want to second Alex. Get on that, people! The best game of 2013 is not going to play itself...

It was a fantastic game. The music levels were incredible.

Just finished this up on PC. Great game, but fuck community challenges - especially on PC where there's a lot of hacking (and no oversight from Ubisoft).

Knowing that there are X people in the world that are better at Rayman than me and having that being tied to an element of game progress, no matter how minor (skin unlocks), did not improve my game experience.

I hope the Xbox Live version goes on sale sometime soon. I have the Wii U version but a ton of the levels are quite different in the two versions and I think I overall prefer the faster pace of the pure controller version. I'd love to have a download of it.

Amazing game. Definitely one of the very best games of last year.

So fair warning, there may be no advantage to re-purchasing this. All versions, Wii U included, are running at 1080p as it is. From what I can tell, if you have any other version of this, you're set.

If you don't have it yet, then maybe stop not having it. There's definitely an advantage to that.

Indeed, if you haven't played it yet, and are looking for something to play on your shiny new next gen console, then by all means, here's a damn fine game to play on whatever platform.

While this was a good platformer, the gimmicky touch controls on everything but the Wii U felt forced and downright annoying. I still feel like the first game is better, and more challenging.

I mean, I do really want to get it, but I always feel weird playing these games by myself, and getting co-op buddies is more of a pain than it should be. Grrr....

I will get this if I don't have the extra $20 to buy Thief next week or if it turns out bad.

This game looked good. Now I have something to play on my PS4 before next month. I'm all about this for $40.

Thanks, Sony, for announcing the PS4 version a week after I opened my PS3 version. Those dumb touch control levels are supposed to be so much better with the touchpad on PS4DS, now I gotta pay another $40?!

I heard that pretty much all of the levels from Rayman: Origins were included in Legends. Is that not the case? Rayman Origins/Legends is one of the few games on my pile of shame from the last gen, so I was looking forward to just picking this up on next gen at some point.

There seems to be a consensus that Origins is better but if all the levels are in Legends anyway, I was just going to stick to the new version. If not, then the cheaper Origins might be the way to go?

Oh I got this guys. Ready?

Finally a game that runs in 1080p on XBone!

1080p60 on Xbox... 360!

Lol the XBone is so underpowered it can barely play a Wii U game in 1080p!

Xbox One: Playing 2D games in 1080p since 2001.

LOL my Sega Saturn can play 2D games as well as an XBone!*

*With expensive adapters and extensive modding you too can play Sega Saturn games on an HDTV!

Okay I'm done.
