Ubisoft’s Rayman series came back with a vengeance with the November, 2011 console release of Rayman Origins, the first proper Rayman game since 2005′s Hoodlum’s Revenge for Game Boy Advance. Luckily, Ubisoft hasn’t forgotten about the PC gamers that also enjoy a good platformer.
Rayman Origins will be available for PC on March 29, 2012, a little more than two months from now, and will have no pesky DRM.
If you don’t have any idea what Rayman games are like, I highly suggest you check out some gameplay videos on YouTube. Here’s Ubisoft’s blurb from the press release:
If you pre-order through participating online retailers, you’ll get a free downloadable copy of Rayman 2! No word yet on which retailers will be participating.
The specifications for Rayman Origins have also been released. They don’t seem to be too bad.

I Am not sure if it really is yet another video game in the tale line, or if it can be just a remaster/remake of the original Rayman sport for the PS1.
And what console will it be on?
Which game is better? Rayman is back again following a long, horrible, rabbit crammed hiatus, but is his most current outing plenty of to defeat marios newest sidescroller?
No dedicated servers , thats why its dead.
If I turn the Wii off, does my game automatically save? I don’t want to lose what I’ve already done…
Console gamers always says PC gamers aren’t real gamers despite the fact that the community for PC gaming is bigger and has less little kids. Is it just because they can’t afford to buy a gaming PC that they are jealous or something?
PC games cost the same if not more than console games…?

Don’t the majority of games cost $60 regardless of what they’re for? And sorry for double post glitch.

I have Windows 7, and although i’m not too sure what else to put into this question… i also have a dell laptop. my problem is high ping in team fortress 2, and in my From Dust game, the game moves slow and laggy. What can i change on my settings and will these changes effect my computer negatively elsewhere?
I know its a little late to ask, but I still haven’t figured it out.
This is strange, considering that their franchise got famous and originated from PC.
Lack of dedicated server, no anti hacks, crappy spawn system, $10 more for what PC games cost, bad text system near end of match, no cheats, etc
I never gamed on PC but seems PC gamers always moan when a game comes to console why is this aint it time we let PC gamers just do one and buy a console and aint it PC GAMING more expensive all the upgrading crap
