We already saw it, remember? it was part of the BETA R3, where Rayman and Globox were riding it to get to the Bog of Murk I think.
Ok, I thought so, I just wasn't sure.



Apparently Rayman was on a Mickey Mouse magazine.



And a modifed render of this as well. I never seen it before.

The GBA version has the same:



And I think that the "beta" version of the super powers of Rayman's 3 with the R2's design were taken from that magazine.

Was this possible in R2? I don't remember...
Rayman: "WHEEE!" xD Now, what I loved to do in N64 R2 was to run away from the Robot Chicken thing in circles until it reached and made the Shell and Rayman go "BOOM"...it was funny.

How funny. xD

And for those who played Rayman M/Arena



Was this in one of the full versions? It wasn't in the one I played, I had the PS2 version.

That's weird.
The Japanese boxarts of the original Rayman didn't depict Rayman with his blue torso...


..but is then depicted with the blue torso...

...and is then changed back to normal.


I wonder why it's only depicted in Rayman 2?

I think it was a designed choice because of some misconception of that whole "purple means death" kinda of viewpoint someone thought Japan had, but it wasn't. I think it was because of some events that might have occurred during the time of R2's development.

I don't recall it being on the GCN version.

Hmmmm.... I still don't get it.
I mean, what event would've possibly triggered an overall change of Rayman's design for Japanese audiences, when it was THEN changed later? Wouldn't it still have caused controversy?

Can someone tell me does this happen in the full version of the game?


Ly is indeed running on all fours, but I don't recall this in the Great Escape nor Revolution. I heard it was a scrapped conception, since she is part feline. Also at 0:53, the Flying Shell is also has Running Shell textures.

She does actually, but it happens when you outrun her.

Ah, so it may be the Beta version. Pretty neat!

And well, it had to be something over there that cause things to change, like Ly's overall design.


:urg: Ugh...

D: HOLY POLOKUS! RAYMAN IS IN THE MATRIX! Er...BLUE MATRIX!
xD And speaking of which, I think that was the conception behind that level.

Also, something wierd and awesome!

  1. I don't remember there being a circle that represented Rayman's health and breathing meter.
  2. There was no Robo-Pirate shooting at you when you're on the Walking Shell in the final version.
  3. Ly.... Sorry, I think she only ran upright.

So wait, does that mean some beta elements was going to make R2 like Mario 64?



It had a life bar and breathe meter too.

You can call me "Ertshy Ernie"

Guess which one of these was the pre-named-by-SFM "rayman4"

I don't know if it's a spelling error, but in the 10-second French promotion, they spelled "Ubisoft" as "Ubit Soft."

I agree it would've been like SM64.
However, in the beta, it's shown that these two meters were separate from each other and were on opposite corners.
It's like Banjo Tooie, with the yellow Honeycombs stretching across the top of the screen and the bubbles going down.

Nice poses of Ray! Looks great!

xD Look, found something cool.




I wonder why they used R3 Ray render with R2 advertisement?

And this is wierd.



Those enemies aren't in the final version, but if that one video that said that the combo meter was added at the last sec, then why were this scrapped?

Man, that magazine can see the future.
They were so eager about Rayman 2 that they wanted a render of R2 Rayman, but unknowingly revealed to the whole world the first look at the new Rayman in R3.

Wow, you got his expression pretty good.
I thank you for the kind words, Andrea! But there's more that meets the eye... *rimshot*
upload_2015-7-6_23-13-5.png

Rayman's eyes didn't exactly have the standard "Move this thing to make him look here", his pupils are seperate models from his eyes
Which leads to some wonky images when you turn the camera.
Kinda like Rayman's Smash 4 trophy, but not extremely drunk :4pacman:

It's the same for what I had to do with the model I had as well.



There seem to be a screenshot of something with Rayman when a video covered Beyond Good and Evil

I wonder what these drawings are based off of?

The first one is an artwork from Rayman Revolution and the second as they said, one from the cancelled Rayman 4.

I thought that the game was going to come to consoles, I think that is "good" that it's only for mobiles, I think we can wait for one game for the consoles, the CGI trailer looks awesome, and that new Rayman look.. it's a little weird xD.
