Rayman Legends Xbox One Review | Capsule Computers

Editor Joe Morgan writes,

"Originally set to be an exclusive release for the Wii U, Rayman Legends is a follow-up to 2011′s critically acclaimed 2-D platformer, Rayman Origins. The game received numerous delays on the Wii U, ultimately dropping for last gen consoles and, recently, receiving a release for the Xbox One and PlayStation 4. Can Legends reach the high marks set by its predecessor?"

Rayman is great, but I am still a bit annoyed with how often Ubisoft delay things.

militissanctus4487d ago (Edited 4487d ago )

If this had remained a Wii U exclusive, the Wii U may not have been quite the lame duck it turned out to be, in terms of sales.

discordman4487d ago

I don't quite agree with that as Rayman is never going to be a system seller. To the hardcore market, the gameplay is solid gold. To us, that is. To outsiders that buy Nintendo products such as parents, he is just another cartoon for their kids, with no true weight compared to Mario, Zelda, ect.

If Mario 3D world and windwaker didnt save it, i dont think Rayman would have made much difference :(

Bluebird84487d ago

Only reason i son't get this yet is the price. It's like 45bucks for a 2-d platformer? Ot's not even a new realese. I could get it off of steam for less than half the price! :-/

militissanctus4486d ago

For a console release, $40 is considered a bargain price. It's a huge game for the price, too. I've paid $65 for much less game.

Just because it's a 2-D platformer doesn't mean it's worth less than another form of game. It's really a great game!

Bluebird84486d ago

Well, getting it off of steam for half the price makes the console edition seem redundant. I'll buy it there or wait for a discount.

Little Big Planet, lol. No.

paddy95469d ago

LBP3 and rayman legends are the best here.

jznrpg469d ago

Puppeteer is really good. Nobody played it because it came out right before PS4 came out. When I went to pick up Puppeteer from GameStop some people were trading in their old consoles for PS4 preorder.

Will There Ever Be A New Rayman Game?

Ubisoft barely have a leg to stand on lately, so do they need to crack open the vaults and return platforming royalty to glory for some goodwill?

We need Rayman 4, they could make a great platformer game if they wanted. With the open hub levels and the like.

Better than relying on Rabbids and Assassins Creed all the time

Profchaos830d ago

Yeah agree id love a Rayman 2 style 3d platform game over another 2d platformer I know people loved legends but it never gelled with me same as Rayman 1 back in the day on PS it just felt like a average platformer with sonic and Mario offering something better on what was then last gen hardware

Terry_B830d ago

Yes..but I am sure it won't be the Rayman game fans want. Not from the company that is Ubisoft today.

mastershredder830d ago (Edited 830d ago )

Ancel is retired from games. His hoodlum/rabbid team are doing their own thing. It would not be the same if Ubisoft did.

Profchaos830d ago

Probably far more profitable to make low effort Rabbids games aimed at kids over a next Rayman

Chocoburger830d ago

Experience points, skill trees to fill up, level gating, endless menial tasks and side quests, constantly scrounging for resources. Always having to upgrade your gear. A.KA. "The Ubisoft effect".

No thanks, don't ruin Rayman's legacy.

Profchaos830d ago

Sure there will be it'll launch right alongside the next splinter cell
