This was the first game I owned. For me it was an really great game, I loved the characters and the level design. It was so much fun jumping around with rayman. It was quite challenging for me but i think for every jump and run fan its quite easy to beat the most levels. Its a great game for kids and in my opinion one of the best platformer.
With a small side of collectathon, Rayman 2 is a great early 3D platformer and one of the few on PC, but does show its age at points I am loathe to admit as a lifelong fan of this game. It features wonderful art and music, as well as a great amount of gameplay variety despite usually not changing the controls at all. Some of the more fast-paced levels will definitely get your blood pumping and give you that satisfaction of victory. And despite being a very linear game, there are plenty of secrets to be found if you pay attention--some of which hide whole levels of content.
On to the bad. The camera is not great at times, and the actual platforming can be a bit painful on occasion due to depth perception issues and almost too-responsive movement (especially in the gimmick gameplay modes). You will probably fall off a small platform you were riding on because you went from 0 to 60 a few times. By far the worst part of the game is the boring combat, which is almost always very basic and easy so long as you hold the strafe button, but occasionally will feature enemy attacks that instantly send you back to the last checkpoint due to bad luck. The boss battles can be good, though there's really only three of them, and you will likely find one part of the final boss absolutely rage-inducing for how it requires near-perfect play with a relatively new mechanic for several minutes lest you die instantly and redo that phase (the depth perception issue is in full effect there too).
Everyone has that one childhood game that they played over and over, this is mine! The game is still awesome with good humor and plot, awesome level design, cool music and so much more. It is still definitly worth picking up!
In what other game do you get to be a guy with no arms or legs, fighting robot pirates?!
