When people think of Ubisoft, one of the first things to come to mind is Rayman. This popular limbless hero has been spotted in plenty of 3-D platform adventures, as well as helping spin off the poplar Rabbids series. But Rayman was originally a 2-D hero in the 32-bit PlayStation era. Now Rayman has gone back to his roots with Rayman Origins, a lush, 2-D platform action game for nearly all the current major game consoles (3DS version reviewed here).

Welcome to the Nintendo Land tour!
Posted on November 22nd, 2012 by
Welcome everyone! As you may or may not know, I just got a Wii U (click here to read my unboxing article). I’ve got two games for it so far. New Super Mario Bros. U is fun, but it’s really just another paint by numbers, play it safe Mario game. And there’s nothing wrong with that and it’s still fun, but not inspiring to write a lot about. However, Nintendo Land is great and I like it so much, I’m going to be your tour guide for a quick visit and run through of the park’s attractions! So stay with the group, and keep your hands and feet inside the blog at all times.
