"Oddly enough, though, Rayman DS has somehow preserved the franchise's charm. The characters are still silly and endearingly bizarre; the style and music of the game is quirky and cartoonish. But even with all of this in mind, I can't help but feel that Rayman DS is 90 percent old news. From arena battles on the Xbox to a successful N-gage platformer, Rayman has seen it all and lived through the best and worst of times. Rayman DS is a valiant effort, but in the end, the transition from home console to handheld seems has taken its toll on the gameplay. I love you Rayman DS -- I'm just not in love with you. "

Poor Rayman DS. Also, I'm happy that the text and the score description match because it's always lame when it doesn't. He sounds like he's describing a "decent." Maybe I'll pick up Rayman DS in the bargain bin.

 

[bitwise]

DS is cursed.

 

[AniHawk]

I wonder what it'd be like on the PSP.

No touch screen analog simulation?



Banned.

I doubt that a "Karen Chu" is a he... heh.

 

[FeedMeAStrayCat]

Ah well, another one bites the dust.

I'm sorry, I didn't actually read the author

 

[Bristow]

Oh well, $30 saved. Polarium, Pac Pix, and Puyo Pop Fever next month!

I love you Rayman DS -- I'm just not in love with you.

I have heard that before

 

[evilromero]

On a side note, I hope Pac n Roll is truly slated for this summer. Judging from the early shots and from spending ample time with the awesome Pac-Pix, I can only imagine the greatness Namco has cooked up

 

[Dr. Strangelove]

Doomed? In all seriousness, the fact that there were only a couple of screenshots circulating the net coupled with the fact that nobody really even knew if this was a port of Rayman 2 should've sent up the red flags a long time ago.

DS is cursed.

Um. Blame it on UBISUCK.

 

[Shard]

Better yet, blame it on DC Studios.

 

[Andy787]

Better yet, blame it on the horrendous substitute that the touch screen makes for an analog stick.

Man, this is sad. I fucking love Rayman 2, a portable version would've --should've-- been awesome.

Yes it wouldn't be the system that seems to be making wonderful games feel like a chore thanks to its' control scheme.
