Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description
Rayman 3: Hoodlum Havoc takes our hero Rayman on an epic journey through some of the most diverse worlds you've ever seen in a platform game, from the icy cliffs of the Summit of Fury to the bitter wasteland Moor of Mad Spirits. The story starts with a single lum gone bad, transforming all the lums in the universe--the resulting chaos threatens the lives of all creatures in Rayman's world and the very balance of good versus evil. Fight huge transforming bosses and whole armies, with more than 20 different types of enemies, including the Hoodlums, Evil Dark Lums, and the savage Knaaren, each with advanced AI and specific strengths and combat strategies.

The game features an all-new, time-based power system, imaginative means of transportation, and intense 3-D vertigo platforming action. You will journey through an extravagant living universe where each land has its own personality and is part of an epic dark cartoon fantasy adventure unlike anything Rayman has ever faced before.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good addition to Rayman PS2 series, oh, the colors.., July 18, 2003

By	CP "Commander Rann" (Portland, OR) - See all my reviews

Rayman 3 takes a mild leap up in game play from Rayman 2. It is very fun, VERY addictive, and kid friendly. The game is short if you blaze through it & decide not to go for 100% completion.

The GREAT:
-The colors and music are absolutely outstanding.
-The voices and dialogue are entertaining (John Leguizamos voice as Globox is classic).
-The game play is about identical to the rest of the earlier Rayman series.

The Not-so-Great:
-Same (sometimes) frustrating camera angles happen as Rayman 2.
-The 'Lock on' mechanism during a fight sometimes really messes up the camera angle if there are other non-combatants in the area.

The Bottom Line:
-Very fun, well worth the lowered price.
-As will all platformers this year, it can't hold a candle to Ratchet & Clank.

5.0 out of 5 stars Non stop fun, March 24, 2003

By A Customer

This game is fantastic. The first thing you notice about it before you start playing is its graphics. They are top notch. Also the voice acting is in english and not raymanese. Once you start playing, the game gets really good. All the levels are uniqely designed for maximun fun. There are races, swinging rope sequences, platform jumping, and awsome fighting. Rayman also gets many new abilities during his quest. This game is a must have for anyone who wants to have fun.

Graphics: 4.5

5.0 out of 5 stars Funny and fun!, July 9, 2004

By A Customer

I have this on the cube and it so funny and fun! It is short and easy sadly but it is (...)fun to replay and you may understand more jokes! Don't trust those people who say "Oh this isn'y the same as Rayman2" or "Oh this is too hard for a five year old!" I think it is a good thing that is differnt from rayman2!
