I never played Rayman 2, which this game is a port of, but I got this one thrown in free when i bought my DS Lite. The graphics are very hard on the eyes, and textures are not flattering to the already jagged object models. The gameplay is a bother to get your head around as the camera is unintuitive, controls have no finesse and the poor graphics make it hard to spot important game-objects. Largely negative comments yes, would I buy it out of pocket? No. Although I cant complain as it's a freebie. Save your money for Advance Wars or the upcoming Zelda: PH.
