Definitely the worst version of Rayman 2, but it's still a damn fine platformer. And I still play it now and then.

>Working with CDs allowed for devs to work with less space restrictions compared to the limited space of N64 cartridges
>Despite this, Rayman 2's PS1 port had entire levels and sections of levels cut, combined some levels together, had less music and lums, and several other odd changes
>But now cutscenes have dialogue and it includes the 2D prototype as an extra
I knew it wasn't going to be as good as the Dreamcast and PC versions, but going into it I wasn't expecting so many changes and for it to be significantly worse than the N64 port. As poor as the DS version was, even that version was arguably a bit better considering it had the full game

Favorite 3d platformer?

>1st is tied between Rayman 2, and Ape Escape
>Crash Bandicoot
>Super Mario Sunshine (i know im not supposed to talk about it here but fuck you)

its bretty decent

Can anyone tell me if it's worth playing the PS1 version of Rayman 2?
It's 3 bucks on PSN and I might like playing it on my PSPGO. I've tried the DS version but couldn't get into it and the iOS version has shit controls. Is the PS1 version better than those?
