Rayman Raving Rabbis puts you into a world with cute and cuddly yet loud and freaky bunnies. You play as Rayman and while having a picnic with some of your friends the bunnies hop out of the ground and steal your frog-like friends. You are then taken away to a arena and forced to play the rabbids mini-games. The main game is you getting to play 4 mini-games each day your in the arena and then unlock a new game after winning 3/4 games. Afterwards you are thrown back into the jail cell with your prize. When in your cell Rayman can choose a theme song for his cell by the songs you can unlock during the single player mode. He can also change his look as well, but only 4 costumes are available from the start. Rayman's mini games are fun and really entertaining, but if you plan on buying this you may want to spend and hour or two in the single-player mode before you call your friends over to play. You start off with no mini-games unlocked and to play them in the multiplayer mode you need to beat them in single first. A downer but you will have fun time getting the games unlocked. The Wii's motion censor capability's come in great with this game, either if you are tossing a cow having bunnies drink carrot juice or just dancing you will have the time of your life with the Wiimote.
Now some bad things are that some times the censor wont pickup some of the movements you make either making things much much harder or causing you to loose the game entirely. Also a few of the mini-games will ware you out because the workouts often have you moving for about 2 minutes straight and not being able to rest. Well I know what some of you are thinking "Oh well anyone can do that. It won't make me tired." Well trying to stay on track with the game and moving and thinking at the same time really can but a strain on you, luckily if you are worn out and need to take a break in the game you can pause during the mini-games.
Anyway to rap things up Rayman Raving Rabbids is a great party game to hold us over until something like Wairo ware shows its face on the Wii, if you ask me I'd say buy it, you will have fun and your friends will too.
Rayman Raving Rabbids is not like previous games (except Rayman Arena sorta,) Instead of a platformer, it is a party game. And this isn't a Mario Party rip-off either, it is a party game with many enjoyable games. the... Read Full Review
