Critic Reviews

Rayman distinguishes itself and embarrasses the competition with its visual design. The creativity that flushes through every square inch of the canvas makes Mario feel like a stage adaptation of a washing machine manual. Moreover, Rayman Origins exists comfortably in its two dimensions, the only concession to the third being understated parallax. It makes the hysterical original Sonic levels in Sonic Generations feel insecure and incoherent.
In a blockbuster holiday season of M-rated war games, it&#A;rray;s refreshing to see something so different and special as Rayman Origins. It&#A;rray;s downright gorgeous and a total blast to play alone or with friends. A truly realized vision at the top of its genre, Rayman Origins is an extravaganza with plenty of action to keep it fresh from start to finish and beyond.
Rayman Origins is the best 2D platformer this year, one of my favourite ever made (it’s up there with Yoshi’s Island), and the one game out in November everyone should play. I don’t care if you’ve got other games to play – this one will make you feel good inside. More fun than shooting Russians, shouting at dragons, stabbing Templars and smacking strippers with dildobats combined. Crazier too.
