Raving Rabbids now exclusive!!

"It’s so different from the other consoles that we decided to reconsider everything…We believe in the Wii and building gameplay around the controller. So now we are designing Raving Rabbids specifically for the Wii. It’s not just an adaptation. It’s a very special project, because this is really a revolution for us. Now we have to focus on one version - the Wii version," said Michel Ancel.


Great news on many different levels!

So here's a new screen



It seems like there will be many a mini-game. In the top picture it looks like you have to milk the cows (and pigs) before something bad happens. In the second, it looks like you have to close the rabbits stall doors or something.

Either way, the game is actually look very clean. I like the art style.

This is actually, unbelievably, my most anticipated Wii launch title... AND IT'S FROM A THIRD PARTY! WHAT IS HAPPENING TO ME?!?!?!?

Zelda doesn't count because I'm trying to avoid spoilers and keep my hype meter low on that score.

I never thought I'd say it but the Wii launch is too good.  Good games are going to get lost in the rush.

Not if I can help it. I've been saving for the Wii for 3 long, grueling, life-sucking years, so I'm going to spend as much money on games as Johnny Fanboy will spend on his PS3.

Then I'll live on Ramen for the rest of my college life.

Meh...

As much as I want to, I don't think I'll pick up the Wii when it releases. It would kill my social life, ruin my grades, and most likely get me fired from my job.

So...I'm going to wait till winter break to buy one (*heres hoping there's one left) so I can play for 3 solid weeks, and continue my life on January 9th.

Requiem, in the second pic, yes you do have to close the stall doors.  According to the NP article, the doors slowly open, and if you dont close them in time, the rabbid will scream and throw a plunger at you.  The writer of the article said that he had trouble playing just because he was laughing so hard.

"As you complete the trials, Rayman's prison cell will become increasingly more luxurious."

That is too cool. They really did steal the story right out of Gladiator, but it sounds like it'll work very well...And the graphics look absolutely excellent!

I've had a theory for a long time now that 3rd party devs will make much better games when they only need to focus on ONE console. Looks like that theory will be put to the test with the release of RRR...

The main difference is that unlike the PS3 fanboy, you will be able to not only get the Wii but tons of games while the PS3 fanboy gets the system and no game. At least you will be playing something, instead of staring at the pretty lights on your new blu-ray player that also plays things called games.

Kairon welcome to the real college student club.  Ramen is a meal of choice in college and White Rain is you shampoo.  Yes I'm really looking forward to this.  But I'm sort of sad that the Rabbids don't have the fur they have in the little videos and we haven't gotten a new one yet.

Do you guys think we might actually have to dance to "outwit those rabbids" as Ancel would suggest?

Cuz that's damn halarious!

"Hey! What are you doing over there" Says the blood thirsty, slightly dumb Rabbid

Requiem starts pop-lockin "Oh sh!t....oh......oooohhhhhh snap, I'm too good nigga. I'm too good! Get-the-hell-off-me! Get. The. Hell. Off. Me.! Oh, watch out now....I'm dancing my ass off, i'm dancing for my life son!"

"Hey! Stop it! Stop....Stop doing that!

*mezmerized*

Don't stop...."
"Hey....

But, if she slips man....if she slips, I slide!"

I was already interested in this game, it was actually probably in my top 5, but like a true Nintendo fanboy, the news that it's exclusive makes it that much more tasty.  I need to start saving money for Wii!

You mean they stole the story right out of the American prison system, right? Work more, buy more comforts.

Great.  That means Rayman's getting a college education, the best of Medical care, bad food, and a good library.  Though I hear the internet is lacking but soon it should be every cell.

Seriously, with this, and the news that Sonic Wildfire might actually be good, there is plenty of platforming for launch.
