GAMEfest 2011 - Rayman Origins gameplay (cam)



 




Greetings folks,
Dm here giving you little extra bonus write up on Rayman Origins
well where to start...but wow! its so good to see Rayman back on our consoles with some faithful old school platforming action! 
visually stunning utilizing cell shading at its best whislt still maintianing he classic cartoon feel of the Rayman universe.  Everything is ever so slightly 2D and 3Dits strange to say but works really well.
The demo i played seemed to have heavy emphasis on local multilayer co-op  which certainly adds a different dynamic, relying on your parter/s as well as your own skills.  
Certainly great fun for its arcade style grab as many collectible before your friends do but what this has to do with the story Ive no idea, we'll have to wait and see on that one.
Something i noticed was in this mode when you fell (or often when game felt like it) your character expanded an d you literally negate the whole level....but then again you cant collect anything or be damaged....difficulty curve much? oh wait its Rayman its still pain the ass! 
I have t say visually impressive, faithful to the old school PS1 Rayman i know and love easy play and defiantly bit of fun with your mates, lets see when it comes out.

Rayman Origins is for the PS3, Xbox360, Nintendo DS, WII, and will be released in the UK 25th November 2011
