I can't be the only one who wants to see this game remastered, because there's definitely potential, it just needs some extra fine-tuning. But I guess for now everyone could settle for competitive kung-foot for rayman e-sports

Both this and Rayman 2 need a modern remaster that combines the unique elements from the separate ports into one package. There's no ideal way to play either of these titles, and that kinda sucks. It's a far more valuable use of resources than pouring a literal BILLION DOLLARS into the next Grand Theft Auto - Grand Theft Auto, indeed. There's some kinda robbery going on there!

[@MacNava]

TheLonelyGoomba I think so

[@justanotheryoutubechannel]

TheLonelyGoomba Yeah, only the PS1 version is really lacking, but Rayman 2 on 3DS (maybe also the old iOS version) has an issue, basically the cobweb you need to jump on to get to the secret 1000th Lum isn’t bouncy. So it’s impossible to 100% it. I’m pretty certain Nitro Rad highlights it in his Rayman 2 review. The “best” version and the version the original creator considers definitive is the Dreamcast version, it runs at 640x480@60fps. All other versions run at 30fps. And weirdly the the PS2 version has voice acting like the PS1 version, but it’s just way better.

[@pjslotboom]

The fact that there are so many differences between the PS2 version and the GameCube version is already interesting enough, but there are also a few differences between the original Rayman M and the American Rayman Arena. Only the PS2 version (and a PC port) and Rayman Rush were released in Europe, so we never got the GameCube version of the game. However, the American PS2 version also has a few small updates over the European version. Mostly in the racing mode of the game. AntDude mentioned you can fire Ice Bullets in the standard racing mode in the PS2 version, but this wasn't possible in the European PS2 version. Just like in the GameCube version, you can only fire projectiles to activate switches or hit obstacles. Music is also handled differently in the European version. Nitro Rad mentioned that the theme song of the character in first will play in the background. In the European version (at least in single player) the theme of the character who you are controlling will play without interruptions. Each theme song gets more instruments over time and by the final lap , every character's theme sound absolutely fantastic. When the PC version was released in America, a LAN mode was added to the game, but this was absent in the European PC version. One more thing. While I agree that the GameCube version is generally an improvement over the PS2 version, one thing I do like better about the PS2 version is that standard races in single player are always played against 3 CPUs. The GameCube version usually pits the player against a single CPU player or sometimes 2 CPUs and I personally don't find that as exciting. There are more small differences between the PS2 and GameCube version, but this mostly covers it.

[@harry508]

Ps2 combat better too

[@nozywolf8949]

In Ps2 version, we can add bots in multiplayer (if we are 2 players we can add 0,1,or 2 bots). Also, in the Gamecube version we can't.. :(

[@gameuniverse8736]

[@playertoo_]

I played this on Playstation and also remember the skins being brought over in Rayman M.

[@Master_3530]

In Rayman M you could still play time attack against friends while the singleplayer campaign featured popolopoi and lums which in my opinion are way better for singleplayer than time attack. I also like the Rayman M/PS2 menu/interface way better. And in Rayman M you still have the bonus race levels in the virtual space as well as the tower battle map and even a time trial level where you have to beat all races in a row.

Personally, I find the PS2 version's UI/HUD to be more ascetically fitting, with its rusty metal machinery look (like most of Razorbeard's contraptions), the ones in the ports to me are just flat shaded and dull. Also, where's Brady at? A cameo of his would've been more fitting for a multiplayer game.

[@ClubHouseComicsinc]

19:50 Rayman 2 is such a good game that even with half missing it's worthy of being a GOAT. That is a massive flex

[@crogurk8459]

Even then, while a lot of the deleted content were some pretty fun parts in the original game, there were quite a few that were just tedious, even more the chair level, that one was so tedious. Not only that but the ps1 had it's own exclusive stuff like the Ninjaw fights which were pretty fun, some extra dialogue, a completely different final boss and the extra game at the ending. I feel like he craps too much on the ps1 version, well so does everybody, it's a fun version for a second playthrough.

[@HardCorePoration]

@@crogurk8459 Ninjaws really was the only noteworthy addition in my opinion, as well as some plot points explaining why the second guardian helps you instead of trying to kill you like the others did. Wasn't worth removing half the game for that and bad voice acting though.

[@crogurk8459]

@@HardCorePoration Wouldn't say bad voice acting, it wasn't special but it was passable, but true, though again I do think as a second playthrough version of sorts it's neat, you better off playing either the pc, ps2 or dreamcast versions first. Still honestly if by some miracle we do get a rayman 2 remake, I do wish they kinda brought some stuff from it like the ninjaws, guardian interactions and maybe a extra part of the final boss based on the one in the ps1, always found the original final boss a bit lame. But Ubisoft doesnt care about Rayman so that won't happen anytime soon sadly. :/

I also bought it as a kid, and.... I questioned whether it was my best purchase or not, but I actually did end up playing it a TON. I must note that this game has some of the BEST music ever. Each character has their own, kick-ass track and the tracks have 4 versions which all play depending on which lap of the race you are on, picking up or lowering tempo, it was a game along with Jak II that made me love dynamic soundtracks. By the way, the bonus race tracks were also in Rayman M (PAL) version, too.

[@warioskapelli3100]

18:21 Can't speak to whether the other versions have this, but in Arena on the Gamecube, if you press the Y button right after landing from a jump, you get a small boost. And when you run over a dash panel you can mash the Y button to make it last longer. It's a technique I don't remember the game ever teaching and it's damn near necessary if you want to comfortably beat the races at higher difficulties.

[@tradeo8899]

I spent my teenager years playing this game on my ps2. Never though it was different to other version. One more thing to know.

[@ConsarnitTokkori]

it's kinda funny how poorly ant's claim about james not being a good indie game guy aged

[@lordvonsteiner2452]

Oh shit. I remember playing this.

Was not expecting a pulp fiction reference my favorite movie . Cultured and RAD😂

[@JediKammy]

Nitro Rad and Antdude are like Crash and Spyro so it's only natural that we have: Nitro Rad Blue: Rayman's Arena Antdude Purple: The Edutainment Hell

[@phoebelovesYOU]

thank you

[@gracileferrante4313]

create Nitro Rad vs AntDuede t-shirts, those would sell like hot cakes

[@passthenirvana8823]

Damn this takes me back. The ps2 version was my first ever videogame as a kid

[@WardofSquid]

I loved Rayman Arena. Never thought someone else would talk about! -Getting Dark Rayman was Hell tho-

[@wolvertox311]

i can't believe james made a weird looking clone of himself

[@Kekwyre]

I always thought Europe is also "the west"
