Rayman 
2008-12-22
It's a little tough to get a hang of the controls and even then it's kinda hard to move around on some of the screens.
very good

I just loved this game. The graphics are good( from 1-5 it's a 3.5), it has lots of characters to choose from (and you can chooose how your character will be dressed!), and the gameplay is great! Both battle mode and race mode are REALLY fun,the levels are ingenious (yup, there's shortcuts!) and the game in general is great great GREAT!!
This game is more and less like Rayman M, but the difference is that Rayman M is for PC and has less characters, WAY less clothes or outfits to choose from, and less fun. If you have a gamecube and can't decide between Rayman M and Rayman Arena just know this: They're NOT the same! They're may be alike, but Rayman Arena is WAY better! Don't hesitate and buy Rayman Arena today!

Total mayhem 2003-12-14
Get kicked into Raymans now crazy world as you fight all sorts of characters. A young fairy named Tily, a blue thing called Globox, a purple thing(the evil form of the Globox)called (duh) dark Globox, the imfamous slaver razorbeard, razorbeard's wife (duh again) Mrs.razorbeard, the teensies, a couple of robots and the hero: Rayman! All the butt whup in one small game, yeah the best part is clobbering your friend but to get some hidden characters I guess you need to do single player. The real downside is the cp players know the shortcuts in race and in Freeze battle they know where the lums apear. I recommend this game, but, it can get *sigh* depressing.

Rayman's world kicks into multiplayer overdrive in this total competition crash course featuring the cast of
Rayman 2. Smoke the competition on mind-bending racecourses, or spark up a lum-flinging firefight in the battle arena. The game features eight characters, 24 maps, and up to four combatants. You must take risks, use tricks, and trip up opponents as you sprint, slide, climb, and helicopter through 12 courses in an all-out rush for the checkered flag. There are 12 gladiator-style arenas, frenzied firefights with power-ups, traps, and special ammo, and a mode with four-player split-screen action. You can unlock rewards such as bonus levels, additional modes, character skins, and bonus characters by competing for the best times and highest scores.
YUCKY 2002-12-31
This game is NOT worth the $... bucks...Its dark and BORING. Rent it first. LAME GAME. the reason you see 3 stars is because the same person rated it 2-3 times. I will give it one star for the graphics and the price but IM BETTING IT WILL GO FOR $... soon
Too easy...and slow too.

There are four different modes of gameplay. Two of them are racing modes: Obstacle Course & Time Attack. Two of them are battle modes: Total Fight & Freeze Combat.
Here is a breakdown of each mode:
Obstacle Course - You try and make your way through obstacles and get to the finish line before your opponent(s).
Time Attack - You try and build a 6 second lead against your opponent(s) while running through the obstacle courses.
Total Fight - You try and hit your opponent(s) more than they hit you.
Freeze Combat - You try and collect colored orbs while keeping your opponent(s) away by freezing them.
You play through 12 different levels for each mode. After you beat the extremely easy Beginner Circuit, then you move on to the pretty easy Pro Circuit. After you beat that, a final Challenge Circuit is unlocked where you have to go through all of the levels in all of the modes and beat Dark Rayman at them. You can also unlock bonus characters and four bonus race tracks (which look AWFUL!)
Needless to say, I was not impressed with this game. Racing around on foot with Rayman is terribly slow and you get frustrated watching him poke along. A better sense of speed would have made things more exciting. The difficulty of this game is also skewed more toward the 8-12 year old group and older gamers will find it way too simple.
This game does have a Multiplayer Mode but you and your friends will definitely be bored of it within an hour of playing. This game is only recommended for younger players.
fun 2002-11-27
ok, super smash bros it is not but it is a very original game and very fun.
i mean where else can you find a guy with no arms or legs, a frog man, a robot badguy and his wife (secret person) shooting little energy balls and or racing to the finish line?
no where me thinks.
not to mention the cool skins
so if you want the game of the year... play halo... if you want a fun and wierd game for a good price ... play Rayman Arena
good game 2002-11-27
ok. so it is not super smash brothers. but it is still very fun.
i mean what is more original than a guy with no joints, a frog thing, and a evil robot and his wife(secret character)shooting yellow balls at eachother and racing?
i dont think anything is.
so if you want the game of the year... go play Halo, but if you want an original... good time, play this
