The PC version of Raving Rabbids is still a goofy collection of minigames, but some of the fun was lost in translation from the Wii.

The Wii version still costs 50 big ones, but there's a world of difference between experiencing this game with a Wii-mote and playing via the PC mouse-keyboard.

It's decent, short-lived fun, but is this really what you bought your games PC for? [Mar 2007, p.79]

Games Radar
A direct port of a game clearly designed for the Wii to platforms that don't even support the core appeal. It's sad now that the bunny that demos the Wii's controls before every event is replaced by...empty space.

On PC, however, it's an utter travesty. You'd have to be crazier than the Rabbids themselves to buy the PC version of this game. [Feb 2007, p.68]

PC Gamer UK
Childish, repetitive and ill-considered. [Feb 2007, p.80]

Salo M. gave it a9:
I think it's really underrated, I've NEVER played the Wii version, and I'm starting to save money to buy the Wii and the second part of the Rabbids. Ubisoft has gone completely mad, the game now is completely FREE, for any reason, don't buy this game, download it now. I'm a hardcore gamer, I like Doom 3, Half-Life 2, Battlefield 2, EVE Online... But I haven't laughed so much with a videogame since Conker Bad Fur Day on N64. The graphics may be a bit crappy, since it was meant to be a Wii game from the ground up, but with higher resolutions, it looks really nice. The Sounds are simply hilarious, you'll be laughing with the screams of the bunnies. The gameplay, for me, is simply fantastic, the mouse and keyboard ALMOST works as the Wiimote. It's not a really underwhelmig lengthy game (took me about 10 hours to finish it), but you'll get one of the funniest games around. Do yourself a favor and start downloading the game now, it's only 1.5 Gigs (or less) for the bargain price of FREE.
