Rayman 3, a sad experience

[Majora]

I bought Rayman (cube) a while ago and had finished it after about 5 hours max.

I was terribly disappointed by the game. It's too short, too easy and terribly unoriginal.

It's sad cos I loved Rayman 2.

It just seems that Rayman 3 was unloved during development.

In fact this game is so disappointing that it makes Super Mario Sunshine look brilliant.

I dont even think Rayman 3 deserves to stay in my collection, I'll never play it again. I'll trade it in and save on the wicked Metroid Prime PAL version.

Anyone else have Rayman 3 thoughts?

Super Mario Sunshine was brilliant. I don't know what anyone finds wrong with that game. It was an evolution of Super Mario 64, just as Super Mario World was an evolution of Super Mario bros. 3. SMS was extremely fun, the variety of gameplay was excellent, the game looked and sounded nice, you couldn't ask for much more.

As for Rayman 3, I haven't played it, but it got pretty good reviews. But I'll agree that Rayman 2 was excellent.

Super Mario Sunshine wasn't the best in the Mario series, and Miyamoto even agreed to that in some press conference last year. Mario 128 will be the "real" evolution of Mario 64.

As for Rayman 3, I played the PC demo, and I'm a little bit disappointed. I was expecting a little more, and it's utterly boring. Vexx, from what I hear, is supposed to be really good.

I bought rayman 3 and I think its really fun although its short. Plus theres extra mini games. I reccomend it if you like platformers.

I didn't like Vexx. I found it too unoriginal

SMS was the best of the mario games. I can't believe some people complained it was to hard, I heard Miyamoto said they would make it easier cause' of the complaints.

Super Mario Sunshine was awesome, there have been better Mario games, but Sunshine was still an enjoyable game.

I saw Rayman 3 on Extended Play, and it looked alright, maybe if it's in, I'll rent it.

I kinda liked Vexx......but not all that much.....I think it would've been a great console launch title.

Sunshine was a very cool game. But I sold it.

[Majora]

... that's not saying much is it?

I think Sunshine was a great game. I think people are just starting to get bored of the star collecting layout.

[Nights]

I don't know if the bored factor was stars or not

I just that it was dumb and boring from the start
after two hours of playing it I bough the thing haven't touched it since... why

cause I don't want to... It was dull... the watergun lame

yet I loved mario 64

[Majora]

Dammit this was a Rayman thread!

Oh well.

The water gun was cool but not good enough for a Mario game.

I loved SMS..unfortunitaly for me the replay value = next to nothing with me, since i played it for like 3 weeks straight then it just got boring because i beat it.
