Ancel to bring Rayman 4 to PS3, 360, Revolution
Ubisoft has confirmed what
their leaked release schedule
already told us last month: Rayman 4 is coming to current and next generation console Holidays 2006! Their
press release doesn't specify which consoles that includes, but the leaked schedule lists PS3, Xbox 360, Revolution,
PS2, and Handheld platforms. The project is under the care of (Sir?) Michel Ancel, the lead designer at Ubisoft's Montpellier studio. Ancel not only created the original Rayman series, but worked on the critically praised Beyond Good and Evil and the impressive King Kong: The Official Game of the Movie. Ubisoft bossman Yves Guillemot said, "Rayman is one of the brands that encapsulate Ubisoft’s ability to create characters and universes that appeal to all kinds of players ... We are expecting this new Rayman video game to sweep players off their feet."

This will be interesting to see how the Revolution version differs from the 360 and PS3 version. I would expect it will be an entirely different game using the wand.
And this is exactly what i'm looking for in games. Somethign entirely different.

I believe it's "chevalier" Michael Ancel.

Understand this. Order of power of next and current gen systems that were listed.
1. PS3 (some people say 360)
2. 360
3. Revolution
4. PS2
5. PSP
Now what im saying here is that there will likely be a huge gap in the quality of the game from the PS3 and oh say ps2 or psp versions. Were already seeing this trend (GRAW anyone?).
Test Drive Unlimited, which was originally a 360 only launch title is excpected in late JUNE 2006. Which is a pretty massive delay for a launch title. But furthermore, its being release on ps2 and psp according to gamespot. WHAT?? i say, Port it to ps3 and rev and dont waste your money on the old systems. Ghost recon advanced warfighter did xbox and xbox 360 and look how much better the 360 version is...
