Best 3D Platformer on PC

If you're looking for a 3D PC Platformer then look no further. This is THE game you are looking for. Its better than Croc 2 and has much better camera positioning. It has a less kiddies feel to it than Croc 2 also.

The graphics are gorgeous and you get to do things like water ski. Still not as gooas Mario 64 but then this is PC after all and Platformers are no longer 10 a penny.

One tip thought for Voodoo3 users is that this game is FAST - TOO FAST! so go to the website and get the patch to slow it down a bit!!

Throughly enjoyable - I wish there were more games like this on the PC!! It gets 5 stars aa I cant think of a better game of its genre on this platform.

Just as good at the orignal........

This game is simply great. There is TONS of action, the graphics are great (from 1-5 it would be a 4), the missions are fun and challenging, and I just loved the characters and the story!
This is a really great game. If you have some spare money, then buy this game! (Well, it doesn't have to be spare money, it might just as well be saved money!)

Excellent

This is such a great game. The graphics are nothing short of spectacular. The sound is lovely. The puzzles are perfectly solvable, but challenging. There is some arcade, some adventure, some action. The levels are well designed. My only problem is that the controls are somewhat difficult. Still worthy of 5 stars, though.

Since I have a new pc with gobs of capabilites, it did not occur to me to search around for system requirements for the Rayman 2 game. Pretty dissapointed to find out I would need another $100 investiment to play the game. It'll will be returned unopened.

Couldn't get it to run-no technical support

Rayman 2 requires a more sophisticated video card than my year old computer has,(although I've never had problems with any other program) but when I e-mailed the technical support address several times to try to work out the problem, I received no response. My stepdaughter tried to get it to run on her even newer computer, but found it froze up every time. Disappointed and dissatisfied.

This game rocks!

The Tradgity That Is "Rayman 2: The Great Escape."

Now let me tell you straight that Rayman is one of the best games I have ever played! With wonderous worlds, challenging levels, and memorable charicters make it a game to be hold! That where Rayman 2 comes in. Gone are all the great stuff I mentioned above, clearly a fatele mistake on Ubi Soft's part. We have none of the returning cast (Except for Rayman of course), choppy 3D graphics (A lot of the graphics look like they were painted on the game), and very little challenge makes this a tradgity! I've had this game for little over three days and have unlocked all the secrets AND beat the game!!! The first had me playing for months. And when I was finished with it I shed a tear of joy and said: "Now THAT was a game!" I'm still wondering how this can be called a sequal, it's terrible! I'm truly offended by this game! All those who praise this game have probibly never played the first game! I beg of all those who read this reveiw, please play the first game first to see what Rayman truly has to offer you! This game is just a wasted game. I hope Ubi Soft wises up with Rayman 3 or I'll just have to shelf the game as "A game that got killed, when turned to 3D." Boo, hoo!!!

This Game Saved Me

While I do agree with most people that Rayman should have remained a 2-D vigeogame series, this is the very best possible attempt at making him in a 3-D game! I was extremely pleased with this game.

This game, which looked just as beautiful when it came out as it does now, features Rayman escaping from a prison ship and traveling across miles of vast lands and enviroments in his search for four masks to help him defeat the leader of an army of space pirates, who have enslaved the planet. Along the way you'll run into friends, some of which you must rescue, who will often grant you new cool powers. The camera is never a problem in this game, and the levels are all awesome fun. Die-hard fans of the original will be pleased to note that there are still cages to find and smash in this game, and they even look exactly as they do in the original Rayman (except 3-D).

As far as music and sound is concerned, I say that Ubi-Soft always composes the best music. Them and the people who did Shadow of the Colossus. There's no question about it, I have never found a Ubi-Soft game where the music wasn't spectactular and helpful in making the game that much more enjoyable. When Rayman interacts with his friends, they speak a form of gibberish to each other with subtitles of the language of your choice on the bottom. This is a lot more entertaining than having them actually speak a real language.

The only thing this game left me without was seeing more of the characters from the original game, and a 3-D version of some of the levels from that game would be amazing; who wouldn't want to be able to jump all over instruments or go in dark spooky caves in 3-D?

Since I gotta wrap this up I'll just say that anyone who wants a good adventure game should definitely get this game. For the record, this game is way better than Rayman 3 and all the games that game after. And with Rayman 2's low price, what do you have to lose?
