The Rayman Topic: Last Game - Rayman Legends

I think they just messed up, thinking Legends is named Origins 2 or something.

But it's listed for PS3 and Xbox 360.

Fake preorder listings tend to mostly be used in conjunction with new console releases but it's worth noting in this scenario that we have no idea when this appeared on their site. Only today does someone who work for a minor site find out about the game being listed on a specialist store in a random country.

We first heard about the game thanks to a Ubi-Rep who said that a sequel was in development. Depending on when this actually appeared, it's possible that this is nothing more than a remnant of old listings not left updated. Some websites forget to remove games or their platforms after a product's been confirmed. Adding more proof to this is that we all assumed the sequel would be multiplatform, but other platforms don't have a game by the name "Legends".

There's a similar thing with Metal Gear Rising here where some retailers still list a PC version with the old box-art. Assuming this is in development by Ubi Montpellier though, it's probably one of their B-Teams unsupervised by Ancel and it's probably not going to be a title the same scale of Legends.

I don't think this has been posted yet:

After the game had a lot of Murfy, then half of it, we finally know how much Murfy Gameplay really is in the Game: Not even 20% of the game are those "AI controls Rayman" levels. Plus, if you really hate those levels, you don't even have to play them.

Online deconfirmed then.

I sort of figured the trailer seemed a bit too good to be true considering how much work needs to go down into actually making online sync with the game.

I believe what they're removing is the "place figures on gamepad" mechanic

also it's not a DIRECT sequel, think of it Sonic Rush Adventure to Sonic Colours DS

I would've loved to kick the shit out of the Rabbids as Rayman.

Well, the art was done for that so I imagine even if they did cut out the figure mechanic they may appear as enemies anyway.

I know this is old news, but has Ubisoft cleared that thing with Murphy up yet? Seriously, tapping things so an AI controlled player can get around is not what I look for in a platformer.

Less than 15% of the game are touch levels and they're all optional.

Oh, well thats certainly better, I guess. But I still don't like the idea of automated stages being in the game at all though.

I think the music makes up for it. I mean, Black Betty and Eye of the Tiger being Rayman-ized and used as level songs? That's all kinds of awesome.

Oh really? I don't particularly like the sound of that.

Played Rayman Origins again in anticipation of Legends. I really wished they had more costumes for the main characters. Nobody likes playing as the teensies..

Are you kidding. I adore Globox. His animations do make me laugh so, especially how ridiculous his mosquito "riding" is and how he grabs onto ledges with his mouth.

I mean I only play as him in 2P because DAT HITBOX but yeah.

My plan for Legends is to stick to Globox in 2P because he's fun to be annoying with, but I'll prolly switch back and forth between Rayman and Barbara for 1P. And uhh... any further lady cuties they may add from the other worlds.

I usually play Rayman in 1 player, but I'll switch between him and Barbara in Legends because Barbara is a badass.

It's nice to have a female character with no bullshit for once.

Yeah, his hitbox is the same size as anyone else's but it's visually confusing. It leads to a lot of "WHAT JUST HAPPENED" moments.

He's definitely the funniest character, though. In Origins my bro played him and I played Rayman. Gonna do it the same way in Legends for consistency's sake.

All they need to do is maybe have him become a little skinny (justify it by having him become comically fish-shaped with propellor legs or something) when swimming I think. Having him have the same hitbox as everyone else was the right move but... yeah so strange lol.
