Rayman® Forever

gaem gud, Vegeta and Gock goo loved it. Great gaym, would play on stream with Dragon Ball characters again.

Could be the greatest game I never completed, due to its difficulty for an 8 year old. This is one of those games that if you've played even just a couple of levels you realize how much fun it is. It's a true masterpiece, and the artwork is absolutely gorgeous, I'm giving it 5/5 just because this is truly a timeless game, and the platforming is second to none. As you can see in the screenshots, there are many levels, and many different zones, some more dark, others brighter and sharper in color. This is truly one timeless game. If you even remotely like platformers, get this, if not for the PC, for your PSx (or use a gamepad as we all know how keyboards are annoying to use). Again, I don't own this on GOG, I own the hard-disk for PSx...

For all the people complaining about the cut music. That's because the Forever version was originally sold on CD and they had to cut something to fit it on the disk... But otherwise a great game and if you didn't play the original before you won't miss it anyway, so for what it offers are 5 stars adequate imo.

Rayman is an awesome classic which I enjoyed playing on the PlayStation. Great platforming, nice difficulty, beautiful music and fantastic atmosphere. Rayman Forever takes that experience, adds more and then GOG brings compatibility. However, the GOG release of Rayman is far from perfect. Graphic scaling is rather hit and miss - some of the higher-level settings result in ridiculous slowdowns, leaving you with more primitive scaling systems, which for me usually result in the game playing in the bottom corner of my screen. Now, I don't mind 'letter-boxing' because preserving the aspect ratio to me is more important than filling the screen. However, an uncentred screen can be a little annoying. Another issue I found is actually quite infuriating on the more difficult areas of platforming, and that's the fact that holding down the jump button on my controller whilst moving in a general direction 'disables' any further pressing of the jump button until you centre the analogue stick. So when you're jumping along small islands, some of which being quite far apart, you end up falling as a result of your buttons not responding. Other than those issues however, this is the exact Rayman experience one would remember from the good ol' days. Although lacking in some of the features added for the PlayStation version, Rayman Forever adds to it with additional content that makes up for that. 4/5.

Awful. Game speed changes from level to level, wrong music tracks, difficulty spiked up, and lacking a few other things from the original.
