Introduction :
The history of Rayman is intertwined with the history of French developer Ubisoft , for though Rayman 1 was not the first game made by the company was the game that really designed , making it a well known and respected developer , as we note below.
Rayman created by today's most renowned employee of Ubisoft , Michel Ancel , was a game released in 1995 for the Atari Jaguar , PlayStation and Saturn , and in 1996 was also released a PC version . This is a beautiful , humorous and challenging game in good old 2D style platform that boasts some impressive technical qualities for the season : uses a palette of 16.7 million colors and has superb animation sprites ( think only comparable to his contemporary Earthworm Jim ) . The game is also famous for its high degree of difficulty (or challenge, depending on your point of view ... I prefer to see from this angle : the challenge ) .
Who is Rayman ? ? ?
The name is also the first game of its protagonist , the charismatic Rayman a character who apparently has no arms , legs and neck ( at least not in a visible manner ) , whose hair spin like a propeller and whose main weapon the shot their fists .
While Rayman 1 has been released for various platforms mentioned above , the Playstation was where the game really shined , becoming one of the most sold console and bring a large financial return for Ubisoft who thereafter turned quite comfortable industry of games .
The villain of the first game of Rayman is Mr. Dark:
The introduction of the history of Rayman is the following : Mr. Dark has stolen the Great Proton , which is nothing more than a sphere (or globe) energy that brought balance to the world of Rayman . The great Proton was guarded by Betilla , fairy, Mr. Dark to steal it . Due to the theft of the Great Proton Electoons the creatures that inhabit the world of Rayman , were scattered and imprisoned . It is up to the hero Rayman departing on your journey to recover the large Proton and restore balance to their world , however, this arduous task he will face many challenges and enemies , including the redoubtable Mr. Dark .

With the success of the first game , Ubisoft tried to provide a continued only this time with the focus on 3D . Behold in 1999 is initially released for the Nintendo 64 and the long awaited PC Rayman 2 - The Great Escape , a great 3D platform game style that later ended up also being released for the Playstation , Dreamcast and Playstation 2 ( a version with some new powers and some additional stages named after Rayman Revolution ) . Even the Nintendo DS was awarded a version of this great game in 2005 .
Rayman 2 was a landmark, being hailed by critics . Just to give you an idea , the portal IGN elected Rayman 2 The Great Escape as the best game of the Dreamcast in 2000 . 's Game was also a great sales success and Ubisoft has even more known and respected , and increase pretty profits the firm could then expand further in the gaming market .
Michel Ancel , with this game , was elevated to the status of genius (which would later be proven with the also fantastic Beyond Good & Evil ) .
Rayman 2 besides being set in 3D brought a nice novelty : Globox , Rayman 's best friend and also , in the opinion of this humble user retroamigo and yours truly , one of the best and funniest sidekicks in the history of videogames. Globox has two main qualities : his enormous cowardice and extreme loyalty to Rayman .
The introduction of the history of Rayman 2 - the Great Escape is: robot pirates from outer space, under the leadership of Admiral fearsome Razorbeard invading the world of Rayman and detroem the 'Heart of the World' , the heart ( core ) of world and break even enslave the inhabitants of the world of Rayman , including himself who ends up being thrown into a dark chain of parent Razorbeard vessel , the Buccaneer . However , Globox , Rayman loyal friend , comes to meet him and helps him escape , but the escape was through clumsy ...
To defeat the pirates and robots restore the balance of your world , Rayman must meet again 1000 lums ( 800 in the PS1 version ) which are small " fireflies " yellow (which ended up being dispersed during the invasion of pirates ) and which together constitute the World Heart and also must find four special masks which will awaken a powerful being called Polukus . During his journey , Rayman will have the help of Ly , the fairy ( originally imprisoned ) , Murphy ( green fly) and some other characters , apart from his faithful friend Globox .
Rayman 2 has graphics, level design and great gameplay . The story also unfolds in a very nice way and the difficulty level can be said to be balanced. Moreover , the game is filled with several mini -games , and the PS2 version there is a tournament in which players are the many puppies Globox (not sure if this mini -game exists in other versions ) .
With the success of Ubisoft Rayman 2 course planned a sequel this time focusing on the islands of 128 bits and behold, in 2003 the third game of the series , titled arises: Rayman 3 - Hoodlum Havoc was released for the Playstation 2, Game Cube , Xbox , PC and GBA and also for NGage portable .
The introduction of the history of Rayman 3 is as follows : a red lum named Andre turns to evil , losing his enlightenment and becoming ugly to look like a nasty black big fly . When playing other red lums , André also ends up corrupting and creates an army ( the Hoodlums title ) stealing pet hair and weave "garments " , giving them a strange appearance of hooded humanoids who use firearms and with the objective spread evil in the world of Rayman . Accidentally , Globox ends up swallowing Andrew and then part with Rayman Globox ( André and the evil inside him ) on a journey to rout the army of Hoodlums and save your world again .
The big difference Rayman 3 for its predecessor is the presence of power- ups accessible temporary duration Rayman through special cans scattered throughout the game . There are 5 power- ups in total: the first one makes Rayman shoot small tornadoes that help you " unscrew " platforms and decrease the size of their enemies , the second is to use a claw Rayman allowing him to grab " rings " and floating also electrify their enemies , the third gives Rayman the ability of a super punch that breaks doors with ease , the room allows Rayman to control a missile ( looks more like a rocket ) remotely and the fifth and last is a hat - helicopter assists Rayman achieve greater heights . Another difference with the second game is that Rayman can collect jewels and increase your score in a Combo system.
In my opinion, Rayman 3 is a platform game in the style very nice, fun and underrated ( underestimated ) that ended up not having the same success of sales in the second game , although it has many fans around the world as the present writer .
An interesting curiosity is that Globox in Rayman 3 is voiced by John Leguizamo ( the guy who did Luigi in Super Mario Bros. movie . ) .
