    It'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 re-introduces an intense freshness to a genre that many gamers chose to remember by a couple of well-known brand names that monopolize interest… and the rest consider long dead. It delivers many hours of pure fun (and some discomfort for completionists) and does that in the best way possible. [May 2012]

    A well-written story could have transformed Rayman Origins into a beautiful fairytale. Without it, it's an incredibly fun ride and a great party game.

    Beautiful art, no DRM, and works great with a gamepad. There are plenty of hidden easter eggs and the soundtrack always seems to be spot on. A must buy if you liked the original 2D rayman games. Expand
  2. Myślę że fani serii na pewno ucieszyli się że oto ukazuję się odświeżenie tych pierwszych części tej serii. Gra przedstawia się podobnie do podobnie do poprzedniczek do tego pokazuje fajny klimat wraz z ciekawym coopem i rozbudowaną kampania. Pomimo tych plusów gra to jednak coś innego. Ubisoft położył na całkowitą dziecinność(za dużą jak na raymana) do tego za mało postarali się żeby odświeżyć tak ważną markę.Gra pomimo tego jest fajna ale nie tak ja pierwsze części...Moja ocena -podwyższone 8/10 Expand
  3. Good and addictive game. Great soundtrack, but several crashes ended up ruining the game for me. It crashes first after the first movie and then and the final level of the first world, and in some levels of the second. I haven't played past some level on the second due to a crash, and I doubt I'll play again. And the crashes are utterly random: we load a level, it crashes before we're able to play, we try again, it crashes 10 seconds into the level, we try again, crashes again, and again, and again, and if we're lucky, it doesn't and we can finish the level...

    Disney quality music and animation, or better, marred by meat-boy difficulty. I've never seen a game with so many opportunities for instant-death. Repeating the same sequence a bazillion times is not entertaining. I really want to like this game, but I always feel like throwing my controller at something five minutes in. Expand
