piRayman Raving Rabbids/i is the edgiest and most off-the-wall gaming experience in the history of the Rayman franchise. This new Rayman game features the funniest, zaniest, wackiest antics ever when hordes of nasty bunnies invade Rayman's world. They enslave him, forcing Rayman to participate in a series of gladiator-like trials. In order to win his freedom, Rayman must entertain and outwit these crazed, out-of-control bunnies. /p table align=left width=250 cellpadding=10 tr tdimg src="http://images.amazon.com/images/G/01/videogames/detail-page/RaymanRabbidsLogo.jpg" border=0 align=topbrbrsmallibBeat the bad bunnies and become a superstar!/b/i/small /td /tr /table table align=right width=150 cellpadding=10 tr tdimg src="http://images.amazon.com/images/G/01/videogames/detail-page/RaymanRabbids1-sm.jpg" border=1 align=topbr br smallibUnlock mini-games to play with friends.

View larger./b/i/small/td /tr /table pbWelcome to a new generation of Rayman/bbr You'd be hard-pressed to find a game with as much character as iRayman Raving Rabbids/i. From the creative minigames to the quirks of the bunnies, this game packs an immense amount of entertainment on one disc. It's rare in games that failing during a competition can bring you as much joy as actually succeeding, but iRayman Raving Rabbids/i does an admirable job of rewarding your failure with a large dose of comic screams, flying plungers and crossed eyes. /p pOf course, the point is to succeed and not let the bunnies laugh at your failure. iRayman Raving Rabbids/i may have a lot of style but it has very little plot. Each level consists of four minigame challenges and one "boss battle," so to speak. If you complete at least three of the minigames, the main gate opens, allowing you to take on a greater challenge. Once you play a minigame in the Story Mode, you unlock that minigame and can play it at any time and against friends. /p pbExercise your Wii Remote/bbr Hand it to Ubisoft's development crew as they really took advantage of the Wii Remote and Nunchuk controllers' capabilities. Some minigames are as simple as twirling the Wii Remote like a lasso and pushing a button to launch a cow as if you were in a hammer throw competition. Some minigames really test your coordinating, asking you to swing the Nunchuk like a jump rope and flicking the Wii Remote up to make Rayman jump. /p pEach level has one consistant challege, however: a rhythm game. As a song plays, the bunnies approach a spot on either stage left or right. When they hit that spot, you'll shake the Nunchuk (if the bunny is on the left) or the Wii Remote when the rabbid hits the mark. /p pWhen you take on the boss stages, you'll find yourself, more often than not, playing a rail shooter. The Wii Remote becomes your light gun, firing plungers at the horde of oncoming rodents. When your plunger supply runs out, shake the Nunchuk to reload. In recent years, the rail shooter (where you don't control the movement) has been forsaken for the first-person shooter and free movement. The Rayman boss experience will make rail shooter fans rejoice. If other shooters can perform as well as the plunger-fueled firing action of iRayman Raving Rabbids/i, the genre will come back with a vengeance. /p pbImpressive replay value/bbr There's extra incentive to play the many minigames of iRayman Raving Rabbids/i. When you complete a game in Challenge Mode, the game gives you a code that you can enter at the Rayman Web site which basically gives you access to special features on the site. /p pThe minigames of iRayman Raving Rabbids/i skew toward a younger audience, and at first, an above-average gamer should find the games to be pretty easy. However, once the minigames are unlocked, a big challenge awaits you to get the highest scores and blast your friends in multiplayer challenges. That's when the real party begins! Rayman delivers exactly what the Wii promises: fun and lots of it. Here's hoping the bunnies come back for multiple invasions!/p

 fun game November 16, 2008

My son loves this being a part of Wii collection. He wanted me to pass on that it makes him mad sometimes when he plays it because some areas are just so frustrating to get past but he said other kids would like it too.

I really enjoyed this game because it is not your typical sit in front of the TV and move your thumbs kind of game. I am not much of a gamer before getting the wii and this game made me fall in love with my wii even more. My husband and I really had fun taking turns with the challenges / mini games. My favorite part was shooting the plungers because it's so whimsical. I enjoyed the variety in this game and it was unlike any game I had played before.
 repetitive! October 8, 2008

this game is very fun at first. it is like a funny cartoon. but the mini-games start to get EXTREMELY repetitive and old. at first the mini-games seem exciting and fun. but as you so through the game they start to repeat the same mini-games over and over. a lot of the games are hard, frustrating, and/or annoying and if you dont like a game you have to play it over and over to beat it and move on to the next one. i beat this game in 2 very long tiring days. no mini-game is so fun that i would want to play it again. i havent played the game since i beat it and dont plan too.
Fun game full of imagination September 6, 2008

My kids LOVE this game! It is full of funny little things to do, like shooting toilet plungers, throwing cows and that kind of stuff - who comes up with this stuff (very funny). It is a game that is for any age, the younger ones get a kick out of seeing what they have to do and the older ones have a challenge trying to get through everything. I wasn't sure what I would think of this game but my girls (8 and 14) really enjoy it..
