- What kind of multiplayer games can we find in RRR2?
We have pushed the multiplayer side of the game much further then the original Rayman Raving Rabbids and have made about 80% of the games playable with up to 4 players simultaneously. The games are designed not only to give a competitive spirit on screen but also off screen. For example, in Balancing Burger players can use their bunnies to shove each other on screen, but can also nudge their friends next to them to help them lose control!
- What about the musical game that was a very big success in RRR?
We decided to mix disco dancing and a musician’s dream to create a stage where you and your friends can now form the ultimate bunny band.
The idea is to create a real concert with rabbids. So with 4 players you can play 4 different instruments at the same time. For example, players can pick a classic rock song track, and with three other friends, play anything from the guitar, drums, keyboard and mic, which allows player to control the rabbids vocals!
- Can you describe the customization options?
The customisation is a fun addition. Players can not only create their own custom “holiday travel” campaign, but they can also customize the rabbids. For their travels, players can change the rules of the game and choose the mini-games he wants to be part of his particular trip campaign.
For the bunnies, the player can change the look of the rabbids. He can mix loads of different costumes by choosing from a huge database. Each rabbid can wear a hat, a costume and a skin. Of course you can also customize Rayman in the same way.
- In RRR, one big issue was the difficulty … How will this work in RRR2?
We learnt a lot from the first game as it was the first year for the Wii. Now we have focused on making the mini-games as accessible and fun as possible. The interface itself has had a big makeover and the difficulty levels have been balanced to give players the choice. That doesn’t mean you can just beat any high score you want, we still want to make it challenging for those more experienced players.
- And what about the online feature of the Wii?
We want players to be able to brag about their high scores. So when connected to the internet, players can automatically check their worldwide ranking. And as an extra little bonus, players can see pictures of the custom rabbids created by other players around the world!

Although it does not include all the patch notes, I thought I'd add this now so you get the general idea of what will change in the next major World of Warcraft Patch 2.4.0.
The image on the Blizzard Entertainment Splash Page is updated, continuing to raise expectations that an announcement is forthcoming from this weekend's Worldwide Invitational event.
Electronic Arts Inc. announced today that The Sims Castaway Stories for the PC is on store shelves across Europe.
Tornado & LightHouse PhysX Mod maps for UT3 ready for download now.
Although Pro Street has been released, EA continues to create new patches for Carbon.
Welcome back, LEGION. Indeed, Joe Kucan is back, portraying the legendary self-proclaimed prophet Kane, through 20 years of Command and Conquer history: past, present and future. The 13 missions spread story explains what happened to the Brotherhood of Nod right after the Second Tiberium War, and fill the history gap left by the original Command and Conquer 3. And then of course some more, the action takes us a bit more into the future, showing just a sneak peak of the shape of things to come.
"A murder?...a suicide?...an accident?...a coincidence?... Follow the evidence and find the moment of truth. It's all about the evidence and more like the show than ever" We'll see...
The stellar "Sins of a Solar Empire" hits our PCs with a unique interesting new combination of game genres and a few cool ideas that should draw the attention of quite a few strategy fans. The newcomer Ironclad Games managed the impossible and created a competitive title indeed. But aside from all the prays and high marks this game received overall, its approach on RTS and the mix of elements it brings, one can find some things that will bother a few players and that will eventually influence the grades of this review. Ok, let's take it from the top.
Sherlock Holmes, the worlds` greatest detective, created by Arthur Conan Doyle is about to face his biggest challenge so far: Arsene Lupin, the worlds` greatest thief, created by Maurice Leblanc. Who is going to win this battle of wits? Who is going to be victorious, and, most importantly, who would you like to see as the winner?
I thought a bit about how to start this. While saying that Silent Hunter IV is the best submarine simulator out there is true, it doesn't mean much, especially for new players. Saying it is one of the best simulator games out there is again accurate, but again, a bit of an understatement. Why? Well because... despite the high complexity and realism involved, Ubisoft Romania managed to develop a game that is appealing to the beginners as well, in a certain degree.
Lineage II had it share of success. At the time the game was released, it was one of the most beautiful MMOG on the market. To take its place as the most beautiful MMOG, the Ragnarok Online (or RO) developers from imcGames created Sword of the New World: Granado Espada.
We were able to take part in 2 battles and what we saw pleased us. The transition to the 3D helped the game and gave it a better view on the battlefield. You can move the camera and this way you get a better look at the action. The units are amazing and their animations are clean and good looking. Same goes for spells and effects: you will love what you see.
Last week I began to search some new independent games. Suddenly I stumbled upon this interesting racing game called Nitro Stunt Racing. The title sounds non-original but the content tends to be if not original, at least interesting.
In a perfect world, everything is controlled by a balance between Chaos and Order. But what happens if things start to get messy and a great evil is about to unleash an epic conflict onto the universe? This is what NCsoft decided to unveil and also explain why Aion is a MMO bound to have success.
So here I am back on the road with a BMW. This time in Race 07 demo. The only racing-simulation game that really impressed me at GC. But only with the help of the Steam client which probably will become the "god" of online distribution! Anyway a big minus for this decision of playing the game only through Steam.
must have rogue macros
must have priest macros
must have mage macros
must have druid macros
Just for you, some Medieval 2 cheats.
| Rayman Raving Rabbids 2 July 17, 2007 The mischievous bunnies are back in a hilarious sequel that is guaranteed to be even crazier and funnier than the first – and with even more wacky games!
They've invaded the world of Rayman®, and now the insane Rabbids have a new objective: invade planet Earth! They have established their base at a shopping mall and begun training for their nastiest scheme yet. As part of this training, the Rabbids must carry out several missions around the globe to help them in an attempt to dominate the world. The Rabbids will also try to study human behavior by mimicking everything we do…but in the Rabbid sort of way, with no logic…of course.
Back to battle the Rabbids and stop the invasion is Rayman, who will infiltrate the Rabbids by disguising himself as one of them.
