Could be an awesome game...

Could be an awesome, maybe one of the best games ever, if it was not for: - terrible controls, keyboard mapping that cannot be changed in the game options, and placed in very uncomfortable way; - treacherous camera that lives its own live and changes the angles whenever it like, making you fall to your death all the time. - .... and the most of all, freaking levels with the freaking running rockets, each running with different speed so you cannot pick the correct timing, blowing up even if you landed successfully after your jump... On another rockets level, after like millions of attempts to beat it just dropped the game.

A good old basic!

So, what could I mean by that? I wonder... Rayman 2 is an old game. And it's cheaply priced. Which apparently means that the devs at Ubi Soft did the bare minimum for this re-release. (Assuming they did anything besides handing it to GOG.) This means: It runs. Usually. But that's it. No fancy enhancements, and a lot of things just don't snap anymore like they used to be - like controller support. Luckily, these things can be sorted out by a google search (or just looking into the forums here directly). It's not difficult in the slightest and bam - the game runs in wider resolutions and regognizes my controller. So that makes it better by a longshot and it can even adjusted further apparently. With that out of the way, what could I say about this game? It's the first one I bought here, a second time now. It's my childhood and in many ways a very unique platformer - albeit a bit short. It basically puts you in a level and throws one awesome idea after another at you until it's done. For multiple levels - until you see the credits. Finishing everything to completion usually takes less than 5 hours. But I like it, it fits a nice evening and has a high replay value because of it. (I actually wanted to boot it up right now before I remembered that I wanted to write some reviews). So all in all: Good artistic choices and well optimized (back in the day). But in classic Ubi manner, the game is more about working and less in polishing it through the end (litterally, the end). The final levels can get a bit disappointing, but only if you have too high standards and bitterness for the Rayman franchise. So, gladly 5 stars. Again, port could be better, but at least they're not charging much. I would say it's still the best official version out there except the dreamcast one.

An Absolute Classic

Rayman 2: The Great Escape more than earns the great, even though there is actually very little escape happening. Colorful, stylized graphics that allow the game to stand the test of time, responsive controls (though I wish it had some custom keybindings support), a memorable soundtrack... the game is just as good as I remember it being back when I was a little boy.
