In fact, the game in general was a much weaker offering, and players weren't happy about that.

The series went through a little bump though, as the second title didn't accomplish anything new when compared to the first one. Sure, the first RRR was released for other platforms too, but the world unanimously agreed that the Wii version was the real winner and certainly the most fun. Along with Wii Sports, this was possibly the most compelling example of how much fun you can have with the Wii, so it became an instant success. The game was made with the Nintendo Wii in mind, and the crazy bunny formula fit the game like a glove. People were amazed at how easily you could make things happen with the Wii's innovative motion controls. Things do get a bit frantic towards the end, and no doubt there will be higher difficulty levels in the finished game.Rayman Raving Rabbids was one of the most exciting games available when the Wii launched two years ago. It's probably a lot more fun when you're dancing in your own lounge with some drunk people, rather than dancing at a videogames conference with some PR people while being observed by a group of retail executives. In fact, there's so little challenge it's a bit dull. It's not too hard to pull the moves off, either, as there are healthy gaps between most of them. Trying out the game, it's easy to see how it all works. Here's hoping they make a Wii balance board game based on Cool Runnings. Moves include stretching your arm up and out then bringing it back down across your body, Saturday Night Fever-style, and waving your arms in the air, like you just don't care. Holding the remote and nunchuk, you follow the on-screen instructions and dance along to classic disco track Jungle Boogie. Once again, just one was on show at Ubidays - Dancing With Dweebs. Working the percentages it follows that around 50 will be playable with traditional controllers rather than the board. But we try to involve everyone else around you." So, for example, "There are sabotage games where you might be balancing using your bottom, and people are pressing buttons on their remotes to throw stuff at you at the same time, and knock you off balance."Īccording to Lacey there are more than 75 mini-games in TV Party. "Obviously, just one player can use the balance board.
"The difficulty we have with the balance board is we try to make all the games simultaneous, so up to four players can play at the same time," he says.
It seems unlikely casual gamers would want to pay GBP 69.99 more than once just to play their Mum at arseboarding. The Wii balance board is currently only available bundled with Wii Fit, and it's not cheap. RRR has always been about multiplayer fun, and battling it out using two or more remotes. Sounds interesting, but there's one obvious problem. "There will be dancing games, rhythm games, balance games - and a few I'm not allowed to tell you about just yet." "I reckon about 30 percent of the games use the balance board," he says. But, as game manager Adrian Lacey explains during our post-conference chat, there will be more board games in the finished product. Only one of these was demonstrated at the event - a sledging game played by sitting down and shifting your weight left and right to steer. What could it be? Tom Clancy's Bumfighter? Cheek to Cheek With Jade Raymond? A misguidedly literal sequel to Assassin's Creed? No, it's Rayman Raving Rabbids TV Party, the game first hinted at in a teaser trailer released in April.įor the third instalment in the RRR series, Ubisoft has decided to make some of the mini-games playable using the Wii balance board. And, of course, "A world exclusive, the first ever game you can play with your ass." There was lots of talk about innovation at this year's UbiDays conference.
