Triverse writes, "Ubisoft has proven time and time again that they are a premiere publisher on all platforms. One title that Ubisoft hit paydirt with is the Rayman series, the reason for this look back. Specifically, the Playstation 2 version which was not all that different than the other versions made available, still has qualities that set it apart from the competition."
Although he isn’t as well known as some others, Rayman is one of the classic platforming characters. The core Rayman games are always good with providing a solid an enjoyable experience. Now, people who may not have played games that feature the limbless wonder can have a chance to do so thanks to the latest PlayStation Network sale.
As every day passes the more and more I wish I hadn't traded my trusty PS3 in towards a day 1 PS4, my PS4 currently little better than a very expensive BBCiPlayer.
Too bad the PS4 version of Legends isn't on sale, would have bought it asap. May still pick up Origins for $10 for PS3, my son loves those games and I think they're pretty fun as well.
Rayman has always been an odd-ball in gaming, and not just because he has no limbs. Despite being around for nearly 20 years (with an absence during the dark age known as the Rabbids Era) and having several critically acclaimed games under his belt, Rayman isn’t necessarily a well-known name compared to the likes of Mario, Master Chief, or even characters like Crash and Spyro, whose fame has faltered over the years.
After playing through origins I feel like going back and trying the first rayman off of the psn. A really underated franchise IMO.
I might have to pull out my sega saturn and play the first rayman again. It's been a while.

I still enjoy playing it on my pc. It's a very "well balanced" platform game. I'm picking Rayman Origins.
