LostOverThere Posted June 7, 2012 Posted June 7, 2012 Okay, out of everything shown, Rayman: Legends is what's getting me most excited. Creativity defined.
-Dem0- Posted June 12, 2012 Posted June 12, 2012 This was already a pre-order for me anyway. But the wait is going to be a lot harder now. "In our view, there's absolutely no way to come away from Rayman Legends on Wii U without being completely blown away by the game from top to bottom. Not only are you getting a continuation of the highly-regarded Rayman Origins title, but you're getting some extremely original gameplay twists that are all made possible by the Wii U GamePad. Toss in an audio/visual production that rivals anything we've ever seen in 2D video gaming, and you've got a Wii U title that will likely find its way into a significant number of early-adopter's collections when the system launches this holiday season."

Retro_Link Posted June 12, 2012 Posted June 12, 2012 Only thing that worries me is if you really need to play the game co-op with someone else to fully enjoy it. I'm rarely in a position to do that.
dazzybee Posted June 12, 2012 Posted June 12, 2012 You dont. It's a single player game you can play coop, but there are coop specific maps
MicroLovePony Posted June 18, 2012 Posted June 18, 2012 Another positive preview. This is looking like it'll be my go-to launch title when the Wii U i released. Looks so much fun Rayman Legends E3 Hands-On
Retro_Link Posted June 18, 2012 Posted June 18, 2012 Happy to see Rayman beating lazy Mario at his own game... It's funny when you hear "it's good to see there are at least some developers happy to innovate"... and it applying to Ubisoft and not Nintendo. Good for them!
Fused King Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 Yeah, I don't know what kind o' sauce they've concocted at Ubisoft, but damn does it make every LOOK and SOUND pretty. I just finished downloading all the tracks of Rayman Origins, and though there are MANY good tracks hearing this one so early on in the game blew my mind. Audio That's catchy and so damn original. They used so many interesting instruments that perfectly suit the wackiness of the Rayman universe. I still can't believe this one is exclusive though:o Still have my fingers crossed for an awesome new 3D Rayman experience again. Have been waiting for it since I found out that the first Rabbid game was going to be all minigames...and then another, and then another. . . . GIVE ME MOAR OF THIS:D I'd had hoped Mario was given to Good-Feel in order for the franchise to receive some of their home brand sauce. I wonder what those guys are up to.
Burny Posted June 20, 2012 Posted June 20, 2012 I still can't believe this one is exclusive though:o Is there any unambiguous and direct confirmation that it is from Ubisoft? If there isn't, I'd just consider it not an exclusive or a timed one at best (for Nintendo). Not so much for gamers on any other platform.
Cube Posted June 21, 2012 Posted June 21, 2012 So far, only some levels are Wii U exclusive. Ubisoft are still considering what other platforms to release it on.
MindFreak Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 I'm still worried how the game will play in single player. It looks good though.
Cube Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 I'm still worried how the game will play in single player. It looks good though. For a console for "You", it has a strange reliance on local 5-player multiplayer.
MindFreak Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 Well, in English, "you" is also pluralis so it does make sense?
madeinbeats Posted July 24, 2012 Author Posted July 24, 2012 Rayman Legends Developer Demo Wii U NWR Exclusive
Hero-of-Time Posted August 15, 2012 Posted August 15, 2012 Gamescom trailer. Exclusive for the Wii U & coming this Christmas! Lovely boxart as well.
Retro_Link Posted August 15, 2012 Posted August 15, 2012 The co-op factor still 'worries' me somewhat. They're so complementary about it in the IGN walkthrough, that it really does seem to be the way to play the game, and I'm just not sure how likely I'll be able to play it like that. I'd hope it would be out by Christmas given it's a launch game! :p If it wasn't then the Wii U would be in even more launch trouble! *mind you I'm probably not buying the Wii U at launch anyway* That sure is a lovely box art!
Fused King Posted August 15, 2012 Posted August 15, 2012 Loving it! RAYMAN IS BACK BABY! *mind you I'm probably not buying the Wii U at launch anyway* I anyone on here absolutely certain they will?
Cube Posted August 16, 2012 Posted August 16, 2012 Is it not kind of wrong that the box colour and the tag at the top stands out much more than the game box art?
Burny Posted August 16, 2012 Posted August 16, 2012 Screenshots anyone? Looks lovely. Prefer the new character style to the old one, too. With the softer shading and without the hard outlines, the characters look less like stickers plastered onto a painted background and more like part of the background. But I do wonder if these screens are manufactured. Wasn't the game running in 1280x720 when it was shown at E3?

Retro_Link Posted August 16, 2012 Posted August 16, 2012 Pretty sure that's just artwork. If you watch the video I posted above the level doesn't look quite that good/go into as much detail as those.
Burny Posted August 16, 2012 Posted August 16, 2012 (edited) Pretty sure that's just artwork. If you watch the video I posted above the level doesn't look quite that good/go into as much detail as those. You mean the ridiculously compressed youtube kind of video? If it wasn't for the 720p footage, going by image quality from that video alone, this might as well be a Wii game tbh. The variable really is the resolution it'll render at on the Wii U. Everything else? Lot's of great High res art, but nothing out of the ordinary. Except the lightning on 2D characters, but even from the compressed footage is evident that is actually in the running game. Edited August 16, 2012 by Burny
Retro_Link Posted August 16, 2012 Posted August 16, 2012 I've never once seen the camera in these games go into such 'convienient for desktop wallpaper' positions as in every image you've posted above.
