After invading the world of Rayman, the insane Rabbids have a new objective: THE INVASION OF PLANET EARTH! Setting their home base at a shopping mall, the Rabbids try to study human behavior and mimic everything humans do in funny, illogical ways. As part of their training, the Rabbids must carry out several missions around the globe to prepare themselves for world domination. Rayman will attempt to infiltrate the Rabbids, disguised as one of them, in a mission to foil their crazy plans and save Earth. [Ubisoft]

It's a giggle. [Issue#17, p.93]

Games Radar
Though the just-released Mario Party DS bests it with double the games, Wi-Fi support, and more robust single-card play, Rayman Raving Rabbids 2 succeeds with style, pizzazz, and humor unlike that seen in most handheld versions of console favorites.

It's good to have a better Rayman Raving Rabbids installment on DS than the one released last year, but we have a feeling that Ubisoft could have done much more on a handheld system that offers many great examples of mini-game collections.

Brutally insane bunnies can be fun, but there aren't enough minigames to keep those in Rayman Raving Rabbids 2 interesting for long.

AceGamez
Rayman's Raving Rabbids 2 is a game with a sense of humour and a lot of customisation, with plenty to unlock to customise your Rabbid throughout the Adventure and Score modes, but the lack of variety and low difficulty in the mini-games will fail to satisfy most players in their teens and above.

Rayman Raving Rabbids 2 tries to seduce you with its quirky 3D visuals, but at its core this is just a bare-bones mini-game collection that can only sustain the briefest of relationships.

IGN
Rayman Raving Rabbids 2 has a few pretty good minigames, a lot of mediocre ones, and a couple terrible ones. Add on to that a forced repetition system and a story that is insultingly glossed over and the title resembles something that the Rabbids themselves may have developed.

It's one of those titles where the more you play, the less fun you have.

Sean D. gave it a10:
I'm a diehard guitar hero fan so when i played the RRR2 rock-band i was totally hooked. and that's one out of like 60 mini-games! this one has a bunch of songs, you can be one of the four different players (generally drums, singer, guitar and bass i think), and hearing the singer (a rabbid, bunny sort of alien rabbit thing), you can't keep yourself from laughing. they sped up the vocals or something so that he sounds like a chipmunk! best game in the world to play with friends.. at least rent it, but it'd probably be better to just buy it to have it around for when you and friends need something really FUN to do.

Vahid E. gave it a10:
Lol when you play the guitar hero spoof within the minigames here, you'll be addicted. it's fun, challenging and just plain hilarious. they ran that singer's voice through some effect that makes them sound like a chipmunk! really funny stuff. the other mini-games are really fun too, of course. like the food serving one, the barrel rolling one, etc. they're all pretty good. highly recommended!!

George R. gave it a10:
Some of these games are VERy hard!! there's one where you deliver burgers to customers, and with four players it seems impossible with the wii controller! but after a while you get used to it and while it's still challenging it becomes DOABLE, and most importantly VERY FUN and addcited for all your friends to play with you. i also have to say that the graphics for this game versus the first installment are MUCH better. a lot of eye candy in this one.

Beck C. gave it a9:
Had to finish the whole game after playing for the first time. THAT'S how GOOD this game is!
