Re: What games are you currently playing?
I've been playing Splatoon Raiders since it came out a couple of days ago. It's been pretty fun so far, and considering my previous track record with Splatoon 3, it's safe to say that I'll likely stick to single-player experiences when it comes to these games. :hap:

The world map also seems to depict it as mostly a desert environment, so they avoided making it food/day of the dead themed even there - making it look completely different from the new footage or from the original game. Very strange.
You know, this is actually how I imagine the world works in-universe. The way I see it, the Día de los Muertos-themed environments shown in Legends is simply the way that the people of the Mystic Mesa celebrate the Fiesta de los Muertos holiday. Perhaps other worlds do smaller-scale celebrations for it, but in that world specifically they go all-in on it. This would make it make more sense why they avoided naming the world after the holiday, since that is temporary and the world itself probably isn't permanently in that state. The areas explored in Legends might just be one part of the Mystic Mesa and the rest of it doesn't have as many decorations tied to the holiday - Mariachi Madness and the end of the Stinkbog's dragon flight would certainly support that theory.

Sure, maybe they should have chosen a name that implied Mexican ties considering stuff like the Mariachis and Luchadores are probably there year-round, but if all of the decorative environments are just part of temporary festivities or only make up one area of the world, then the Mystic Mesa's name still works well enough in my opinion. :)

Yes, it looks like the bosses are no longer inherently evil, but possessed by that mysterious hooded villain instead. At least, they all share the same purple glowing eyes.
Yep; we've seen Grunderbite, the Armored Toad, El Luchador, and even the Mechanical Dragon (in one shot of the reveal trailer) with the possessed eyes, and the Bubble Dreamer's description of Grunderbite being the protector of the Old Teensie Kingdom does mean that the bosses are no longer evil by nature. I like this new angle, since some of the bosses and enemies didn't really seem like the hostile type (e.g. El Luchador and the aforementioned Mariachis and Luchadores), and I'm intrigued to see how they are described in their normal states.

Though I do wonder why the Mechanical Dragon, a robot seemingly built by the Dark Teensy, needed to be possessed? If he's working under the new villain, then it shouldn't require those extra measures, right? And how on earth are they going to explain Hades' Hand? :P

Re: What games are you currently playing?
I spent an hour to an a hour and a half playing one of my favorite PopCap classics - Heavy Weapon Deluxe - on one of my retro PCs. I tried to beat my 20-year old record in Survival Mode, currently sta nding just over eleven and a half minutes. No luck. Although in all of my attempts I got a Top 10 time thrice, the first place stayed about 40 seconds out of reach. Oh, well, maybe next time. :P

Re: The Awesome and Cool Rayman Poll Thread - #84: What's your least favourite world in Rayman 1?
Band Land because Gong Heights. The rest is adorable, but *shudder*... no thanks.

Re: The Awesome and Cool Rayman Poll Thread - #84: What's your least favourite world in Rayman 1?
Bro, you could even remake it with AI and it would be the Cabes of Slops.

As for myself, I voted for Candy Château. Too underwhelming of a payoff after being forced to 100% the game.

Re: The Awesome and Cool Rayman Poll Thread - #84: What's your least favourite world in Rayman 1?
Probably the Cabes of Skops. I hate Cabes. Wish it was just a cave.

I'd doubt they'd be able to do that since Retold was made in a separate game engine and not made in Ubiart Framework, It's a matter of time if they decide to make an in-game launcher for Retold which includes Origins Enhanced Edition
I think it would most likely that once you buy Retold, a separate icone for Origins Enhanced Edition will appear on your console menu...depending on which though. I could be talking outta my head though...
No worries, I already know! When I pre-ordered it on PlayStation 5, It showed another game with no icon on it indicating that it's definitely Rayman Origins Enhanced Edition!

The physical version of Rayman 30th Anniversary Edition was released today.

Alongside the game for modern platforms such as the Nintendo Switch 2, this physical release includes a set of three postcards, a few stickers, a double-sided poster, and a reversible cover.

For players who held out on the digital launch due to early save-related glitches, these issues have now been resolved following the recent v1.1 update.

It's official: the rumors are now reality! Although many details leaked over the last few days, Ubisoft has formally announced both Rayman Legends Retold and Rayman Origins Enhanced Edition during tonight's State of Play presentation.

Both games are coming to PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch 2, and PC on October 1, 2026! The bundle will retail at the price of $39.99, with Origins Enhanced Edition included free!

Rayman Legends Retold represents a significant modernization of the original title. It features a visual overhaul that replaces the classic watercolor look with a modern 2.5D aesthetic, alongside an entirely new storyline and a fresh villain. Other key additions include brand-new music levels, a realistic redesign for Betilla, and a minor cosmetic tweak for Rayman himself (who now has two separate eyes), along with new costumes referencing older games and other series. Most notably, the game is set to introduce fully 3D segments featuring rail-shooter gameplay, where players take to the skies on the back of a dragon to shoot down enemies.

As for Rayman Origins Enhanced Edition, running in 4K resolution at 60 FPS, this remaster updates the game for modern platforms with quality-of-life and accessibility features. It also appears to integrate the previously exclusive PlayStation Vita content, alongside updated photoboard designs and Murfy.

Following up on the teaser from a couple of days ago, Youtooz has now officially revealed the full design of the upcoming Ly the Fairy plush!

But that's not all: the manufacturer also unveiled a brand new Rayman "stickie". For those unfamiliar with the term, Youtooz "stickies" are mini plushies equipped with magnets inside, allowing them to stick to metal surfaces (like fridges or PC cases) or to each other.

You can check out the full reveal images of both the Ly plush and the Rayman stickie below:

The rumors were true! After the rating leak earlier this year, Ubisoft officially unveiled Rayman 30th Anniversary Edition during today’s State of Play. Developed in partnership with Digital Eclipse, the compilation brings together five versions of the original game: the PlayStation, MS-DOS, and Atari Jaguar releases, as well as the Game Boy Color and Advance versions. The collection also marks the first official commercial release of the 1992 SNES prototype.

In terms of extra content, the package notably features the Bible of Game Design, developer interviews, and unreleased concept art. The collection also adds modern quality-of-life features, including rewind capability, save states, and toggleable cheats (infinite lives, unlock all levels).
