Ubisoft’s most loveable and enduring character is 10 years-old in 2005, and here’s a bargain priced celebration of that fact in the shape of a triple whammy of the finest in PS2 platform gameplay: Rayman M, Rayman 2: Revolution and Rayman 3: Hoodlum Havoc, in a limited edition package. Rayman M traditionally takes place in the Rayman universe of bright and colourful landscapes. The game features a good range of environments in which two different types of game can be enjoyed. In Battle mode, players must fight against other players or computer controlled opponents to knock each other senseless. Two players can participate co-operatively to take out one or two members of the Rayman AI. There are several characters to select, but all have the same basic attributes, they are just aesthetically different. In Race mode, players are challenged to traverse a series of ‘racecourses’ in as little time as possible. Each circuit is unlike a race car track and is tackled on foot by jumping over obstacles and negotiating a plethora of nasties along the way. You can select between one, three and five lap races, all of which are played in a vertical split-screen fashion. Again, players can race against computer controlled and human opponents. This helps to extend the challenge of the game and increase its replay value greatly. If you’re expecting just another re-run of the original Rayman, you’re in for a very pleasant surprise with Rayman Revolution. In common with all Rayman games, there are puzzles aplenty, and lots of friends and treasures to rescue and recover. However, the huge 3D worlds in Rayman Revolution offer the player an awful lot more than the average platformer. While still ostensibly a platform title, Rayman Revolution is a lot more than that. There are the aforementioned puzzles, so put on your tactical cap before you switch on. And there are some unsavoury types who will try to hinder your progress, but as long as you are in a combative mindset, they can be despatched with a couple of fire-punches. It’s all good, clean fun, but hardly revolutionary. Lastly, there’s Hoodlum Havoc. Following faithfully in the footsteps of its predecessor, HH plunges the bizarre, limbless hero once again into a great adventure, in which he must traverse and explore an array of beautiful, fantastical environments. This time around, the story focuses on Rayman’s best mate Globox, who, for some reason or another, has managed to accidentally swallow the Lord of the Dark Lums. Angered by this act of gross misconduct, the bungling-yet-deadly army of Hoodlums gets on the case, hell-bent on recovering their leader. Our hero is subsequently left with no option but to find a cure for the manic Globox, scour the land for unearthly new powers, and win the allegiance of a fierce warrior tribe known as the Knaaren. Throughout the adventure, over 20 different enemies stand between Rayman and his goals, each sporting what Ubisoft refer to as advanced AI and specific strengths and combat strategies. But have no fear because, as always, a selection of super powers and abilities can be unearthed, such as Shock Rockets, Lockjaw, Vortex, Mini-Shoe car and other supercool stuff.
