Date played: March 7th
Platform: PS3
Time played: 40 minutes
Session fun rating: 10/10
Holy shit, this game is good. I played through the end of the second world and one level from the third. The levels are amazing in their platforming design. This feels like Donkey Kong Country Returns's cousin with a dash of Sonic the Hedgehog for good measure. There are also a lot of levels that remind me of Super Mario World.
Honestly, level design is really top notch in Rayman Origins. I would love this game if it had 8 bit graphics and no music. The fact that the graphics and music are amazing is just like a big dump truck of icing on the cake. There are also great chase levels where Rayman has to go through the level very quickly while chasing a chest. It sounds simple, and it is, but it is so well designed and choreographed that it's just better than the other levels in the game. It reminds me of the special secret levels in Donkey Kong Country Returns.
