[@Dashx64]

So long Michel, you are indeed a legend, and one of my heroes. Rayman will never be the same.

[@Meyohimeyoi]

And the rabbids franchise will never die unfortunately.

[@UltimateCrashChannel]

I like that Michel Ancel brought up Crash Bandicoot just to show that there are people who still care. It's crazy to think that the creator of Rayman likes Crash.

[@JoNoLikesToPlay]

Rayman nowadays defenetly feels like the classic Crash Bandicoot, he is not stupid, but funny.

[@bostin1472]

nowadays..

[@CEO_G]

i love the art style, having everything hand drawn is amazing. Can't wait!

[@GalaxyRoyal]

I always watch Michel Ancel's interviews when he speaks French but listening to him in English with his French accent sounds really funny to me. XD

[@coyote-0es575]

Don’t you mean very fonny?

[@Motwera]

Its sad when the company currently owning the series of Crash does not respect it while many other people, its original creators, and other companies respect it, regardless of liking the new/old games or not..

[@gingerbob14]

Hope you’re happy after these 6 years

[@Motwera]

@@gingerbob14 I'm delighted to say that yes, I'm pretty happy about it and I'm glad we got to this point.

[@niushasamie5775]

@@Motwera it's so good to see that rayman is still alive and still lives in our heart forever :)

[@Meyohimeyoi]

@@niushasamie5775 I highly appreciate the rayman community for that reason.

[@CaesarNeptuneStudios]

I miss this legend so much

[@Lyle24Odelein]

Rayman was probably one of the few good games for the Jaguar back in the days. Critics mostly praised the amount of colors used in the first Rayman game ( i believe it was released in the mid 90's). it's good to see that Ubisoft went back to the basics, going back to 2D with Rayman again.

[@Sephelions]

I came looking for interviews on this game after I got halfway through playing it. It's super cool hearing him talk about what went into Origins and how it differs from previous games

[@CrispyToast]

3:53 Photoshop~

[@FullMetal423]

Looks terrific!! Keep up the good work Mike ;)

[@Mrjordak]

I love the way he says fantasy - Fan-taze-ee It honestly took me about 2 minutes to work out what he said XD

[@The0ptimus]

This is gonna be AWESOME

[@LarsTheFox]

l'll always remember Rayman's orignal 2D adventure. What a fantastic game with brilliant music it is.

[@dingothps]

this looks really awesome. damn sweet visuals :D im gonna buy that for sure

[@drifter402]

ARE YOU KIDDING!?!? raymans 2 and 3 KICKED ASS

[@WOOHOJEHA]

RAAAAAAAYMAAAAAAAAAAAAN!!!!!!! How I missed you! Now I want Crash and Spyro back too...

[@joevictor53]

Finally some mention of it. I thought it had been cancelled.

[@DeadWhiteButterflies]

Holy Globox, it looks beautiful! :D and finally not a Rabbid in sight! Good to see Rayman is getting back on track, and a beautiful looking one at that. *still crossing fingers for Beyond Good and Evil sequel"

[@kuhvyc]

I LOVE ALL RAYMAN GAMES!!! ❤️❤️❤️

[@HuskyLemur]

man I wish I had tools like that. in which you can draw your character and concept and then inport them to graphic tablets and finally make them into video games for the first time. my god I have fallen in love with the UBI-ART FRAMEWORK.

[@jerimiahsaiah]

4:25

[@HuskyLemur]

damn I would love to work at ubi-art one day. cause I would like to draw my cartoons and turn them into video games too! cause the new tech I saw on the ubi-art trailer was awesome and fascinating too.

[@zixil3]

im soo looking forward to this game!

[@AniCator]

I liked the 3D ones. Rayman 2 is one of my favourite games.

[@crazyassassinkill]

Haaa i have good memories of Rayman 1 like the way how you always feel like you've accomplished something with the music and the "YEAH!" at the end of each level. Good times, good times :)

[@tsangpogorge]

Rayman 2 is my fave!

[@SupaKoopaKid64]

3:34 Well that explains quite a lot about the animation

[@pioxia777]

3:34

[@MadPropzBaller]

The graphics look amazing

[@JojoMonReturns91]

Those 5 people are Andre, Reflux, The Rabbids, Mr. Dark and Razorbeard. But that too obvious to notice or state. XD Well Mr. Michel does make a good point about platformers. He does say that "My Feeling about Platforming is really comfortable with 2D." THis makes me happy that 2D games (like Mario, Sonic, Rayman, and other "newer generation games" like Splosion Man) are still remembered greatfully for what they brought us other than "overrated" FPS (like Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2).

[@CreativeGuyKyle]

RAAAAAAAAAYMAAAAAAAAAAN'SSSSSSS BACK!!! Now we need Spyro, Crash and best of all Jak back!!!

[@doubleB745]

Haven't played Rayman since like... 2007? I wanna play now!

[@beyondthecamera333]

I love hearing Michel Ancel speak English.

[@zlf377]

@MindOfCreativity I totally agree with you!

[@MissMuseShake]

*swoon*

[@TheSorrow1O1]

I'll be honest, I never played the original Rayman games but this looks fantastic.

[@jodexgeorgexchlo]

Im soo Happy i love rayman so much! but i hope theres a good story line to this game like Rayman2 The Great Escape:'D

[@AntonioO1996]

@creatortag21 i think you'll have to relax and wait...they'll release it on november from what i heard :(

[@normasalazar1623]

Rayman is back in action

[@Markerton]

Damn! I love the style of the game!

[@MadPropzBaller]

Can't fuckin' wait!

[@andresmarcelsanchezporras326]

R.I.P rayman 1,2 and 3. Cause of death: Rayman origins Appeared.

[@kazhwaqaz]

Rayman 1 will always be the best one...

[@RaycxellTorres]

this game is gonna be awesome and this man is awesome ^^

[@eManga7]

wow, a lot of the game footage I have not seen before when I played this game? was that stuff just cut out? like that big pink boss at the end of the video that looked really cool!

[@tobiasfrida]

if you actually completed the game you would know that that boss is in it...

[@joevictor53]

@joaovictor1994 I love Rayman 2. I first played it on the PS1 and then got it for PC and recently got it on my iPhone. One of my favourite platform games ever.

[@HuskyLemur]

sometimes I really wish they made a PS3 remastered collection of the rayman trilogy.

[@Lyle24Odelein]

@WelshNareik The game was released for The ATARI JAGUAR like one week later after the Playstation...

[@blackhound90]

END OF THE YEAR?! They been working on this since E3 2010! Why are they taking so long.... :/

[@b7r3u8n9c1h]

I'm actually glad that Rayman Origins is going to be a retail title after all. I'd rather pay to play the whole game at once than pay 15 bucks a month until I've paid too much for minuscule bits of content.

[@freddyzcount90]

Lol the director's hair is similar to Rayman's... coincidence? I think not.

[@P00Pification]

@iRickcast1 Congratz.

[@DaveTheSodaGuy0]

@creatortag21 that's bullshit, rayman 2 and 3 are two of the best games in the media's history. The 2d ones are good as well, but the 3d ones are pretty damn good.

[@kazhwaqaz]

@TimeBreaker1987 I agree, I love all three of the games =)

[@wizard1370]

Best.

[@ricanpug1]

its like the old rayman game

[@SirCaco]

@kazhwaqaz what about Rayman 2: The Great Escape? That one holds a special place in my heart :3

[@AnthonyTheAwesome500]

looks gorgeous graphical art direction wise(everything looks hand drawn) but for some reason i think people are going to complain about it being too easy of the game is too short. shank for example love the look and feel of the game but the actually gameplay bolied down to just mashing attack unitl everything was dead and is want hard at all.

[@mounir314]

i already pre orderd

[@DemoMonster7]

@BisonFTW im not being apart of a pointless fad, im being apart of noslalgia. Not to get a "Top rated comment" like most people do, just to see who remembers the 1st Rayman game, since it has the same style as the first game.

[@FrenchDeath]

rayman must be without bunny

[@vincently1995]

Michel "Rayman" Ancel

[@DemoMonster7]

THumbs up if this Looks like Rayman on the PS1!

[@RenTimH]

@RoyalHustler09 - I agree.

[@SirCaco]

@MindOfCreativity Unecessary, but awesome! I had the PS1 version, the N64 and the PC version.

[@ProkoLokor]

@creatortag21 Wasn't this the bouns stage in R3?

[@ProkoLokor]

@creatortag21 But in R3 there was a bonus stage that emulated R1.

[@RobbanFoxer]

And they say that games cant be art...

[@Tommeke11]

And I thought no human could do an interview with God.. o.O

[@Mirata87]

It never was Mario, but I fucking love Rayman :D better then Sonic

[@SergioSource]

@CreativeGuyKyle oh yh! Rayman2, Spyro, Crash 3, and Jak 1, all my favs :P

[@CarryOnGames1996]

I love ze fanta-zee vorld of Rayman!

[@flyinghobo101]

@Crashdance22 So you dont care that its going to be better than the original you just want it to be the same? And yes it is going to be more difficult than the average platformer

[@wiilover07]

I hope you know gamespot and other mainstream gaming media this is also going to be available for Wii!! You actually think platformers sell on 360 and ps3? um no they don't

[@Harmonyya1992]

1:11 that was in game? O_O

[@pioxia777]

AlwaysHarmony 1:11

[@Zamn_daniel]

poptart poptart this was from 7 years ago the time stamp wasn’t a thing yet

[@Guernicaman]

Is this retail? Or Downloadable on XBLA/PSN or Games On Demand?

[@SirCaco]

@joevictor53 Yeah it's so awesome. The memories, dude, just... I can't explain, it's one of those games, you know. It's one of those games that are just special, it means something. My childhood, man, that's what it reminds me of. It's just so great... I mean for real, when I was a kid, I could talk... Raymanian LOL

[@6littleMERMAIDS]

@LostLustify Make it impossible Just like the old hardcore platformers ;D

[@Pan-lv7vv]

[@KhaledxIbnxAlxWalid]

@iRickcast1 Congratz

[@SporeFan01234]

@creatortag21 Rayman 2 was the best in my opinion... although i cant say anything different about the originals. They're all good.

[@RoyalHustler09]

Though I hate the new look of Rayman; I am SO glad that they not making a new rabbids game. :D

[@YTman28]

@LostLustify Do you really want to suffer frustrations while playing it Hard? Then good luck with that.

[@JewishGun]

Can't they make it 3D?

[@futureamerica8355]

@creatortag21 yea it can. rayman 2 and 3 were 3d and fuking brilliant

[@flautist8807]

Rayman. Copying all the other classic franchises and going back to 2d because it's cool again.

[@sheldon066]

@LostLustify from what i heard it's pretty hard.

[@DemoMonster7]

@BisonFTW dude, i respect what your saying, but do you really need to make a big deal about this? I do it once and i get S**T about 11 seconds after i post it. Come on man, really?

[@DemoMonster7]

@BisonFTW ok, i agree :)

[@Titoklaus]

rayman 2 es mi rayman favorito igual que el 3

[@JMasterXP]

@LostLustify dw ive seen gameplay and single player looks pretty difficult as your progress

[@DemoMonster7]

[@Amcacs5654]
