    Rayman 3D is well Rayman 2. The question that needs to be asked is if this can be called the definitive version. While Rayman 3D has a neat 3D effect and works really great with the button set not much sets it apart from it's predecessors and this doesn't mean the game is a complete traversty because Rayman 2 was a fantastic game for it's time and still is. However the aging visuals andRayman 3D is well Rayman 2. The question that needs to be asked is if this can be called the definitive version.

However the aging visuals and the aging gameplay mechanics kept here cannot be forgiven. Rayman 3D doesn't fix any of the problems of it's predecessors but keeps them exactly intact. The Camera angles are awful, some of the game like camera control should have been implemented on to a basically useless bottom screen within this game. Rayman 2 is a classic however this port of a classic merely adds a 3D tint.

    The New 3D And Portability Of This Game Is Quite Good, But There's Nothing Really New Here. Though It's Still A Good Game! Though I Think It's Best For You To Decide Whether You Should Get It Or Not.

    El mayor problema aqui es que esa versióon esta plagada de bugs. Si no fuera por eso seria de los mejores juegos de la 3DS, porque rayman 2 es de los mejores plataformas 3D que jugué en la Nintendo 64, pero no se puede admitir que un juego lanzado en 2011 tenga una calidad inferior al original de 1999.

    Ugh. What a mess. The original game is a fun 3D platformer with a jungle-theme that is implemented well. If possible, find the original game, because the 3DS port is messy and sloppy.

    Mediocre at best. The characters are plain stupid, the 3D hurts (I never actually have problems with that) and it's just Ubisoft being plain lazy. Get the brilliant Rayman Origins instead!

    remaking the same game for consoles later.

    not innovated much Rayman 3D because it is clear that Rayman 3D is a republication of Rayman 2 The Great Escape, the only inovasion I see is just the 3D effect in the game, you can play simplemnte Rayman 2 The great escape in other alternate versions as the NDS, PS2, N64 and others.

    Played in 2021. This is a decent little game. I had a good time clearing this out of my backlog but I wasn’t blown away. The level design is not as interesting as Mario 64 or Banjo Kazooie and a lot of the gameplay is pretty linear. It’s not necessarily a bad thing and the game does have some good puzzles and secrets hidden. The game doesn’t force you to backtrack much and is prettyPlayed in 2021. This is a decent little game.

It’s not necessarily a bad thing and the game does have some good puzzles and secrets hidden. The game doesn’t force you to backtrack much and is pretty generous about the number of secrets you need to find to progress which keeps frustration low but it doesn’t do much to reward completionists. Overall I enjoyed Earthworm Jim 3D (which came out around the same time and which I also played recently) more than this game. I found Rayman 3D was still worth my time though as it is not too long and it does not overstay its welcome!… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. = ik was verbaasd hoe goed deze game was toen ik een replay dee

    + de combat is simpel maar engaging

    +/- de paard-raket controls moet je gewoon worden maar ze zijn doenbaar

    - de elementale bazen hadden beter gekunt. er zijn 2 die echte bazen zijn, 1 is gewoon platform dat zelfmoord pleegt en de andere bestaat niet, zijn masker word gevonden maar hij komt nooit tevoorschijn

    + er zijn veel collectibles maar het voelt niet dat er teveel is. de 3ds versie heeft een glitch dat het pakken van 1 luma moeilijk maakt maar je kan het nog altijd krijgen door de hitbox detection

    + de villains voelen als een bedreiging. ze eten zelfs een lume op

    + de final boss is klimatisch

    conclusie:
    in het begin hate ik deze game omdat ik altijd vast zat (ik verstond geen Engels toen, en de level design hielp ook niet) maar een replay heeft mij deze game tof laten vinden. de game is toegankelijk op veel platformen, probeer het. het is meschien wel een beetje dated    … Expand

    A lack of true performance tweaking and additions makes this a rather hard sell on the 3DS, but it's certainly not the worst version of the game out there.

    Overall, Rayman 3D is a competent platformer but it's sinfully old. Rather than sprucing it up and developing a truly great re-release, Ubisoft was happy to repackage ancient materials and ship them as new content. If you've played the game already there is very little reason to redo it on the Nintendo 3DS. If you haven't played the original, it's likely too old to be worth your time. However, if playing tragically outdated platformers with more back story than you'll know what to do with is what you're after, Rayman 3DS is your game.

    Rayman 3D is still an enjoyable, but short platformer. Nevertheless, you don't really recognize changes to prior Rayman games and the 3DS support.
