Rayman Origins (Xbox 360)
Rayman Origins saw the return of everybody’s favorite limbless video game character. Origins sees Rayman embarking on a new 2D platforming adventure in search of finding enough Electoons to restore the Glade of Dreams. They’ll also have to fend away the encroaching nightmares that seek to destroy it and put an untimely demise to our ever-happy hero.
Rayman Origins is an ode to the old school platformer. A game whose stunning presentation, and incredible rhythmic music, make Rayman’s return to our screens one of the prettiest experiences of last generation. Though its story isn’t something you’re going to remember forever, the perfect handling and enjoyable challenge make Origins a great trip down the memory lane of platformers.
Metacritic score: 87
