Rayman Origins 3DS delayed... again

[granville]

My biggest gripe is the slippery controls on the 3DS. I didn't feel like I had control over Rayman. I bought the game on Steam and play it with an Xbox controller, and that version is fantastic. 3DS version was crippled beyond any hope of getting a good score.

I've played side by side both the PC (with gamepad) and 3DS versions, there's no difference in how Rayman handles whatsoever. Same response time, same friction, nothing has changed in terms of the controls. I also have played the Wii version as well, which again controls the same as the others. So I disagree that the 3DS version feels any more slippery than the others. The game itself has a certain level of momentum you have to get used to during the first few minutes, but this is true of the game itself and all its versions.

That's what happens when you make your games Nintendo exclusives. Should've went multi-platform, Ubisoft.

Rayman Origins is multiplat.

What is smoking you?

Payback for Legends.

This. I even had to test the PC demo against the 3DS demo, and it showed no difference in gameplay, control, response, etc. I think it is the drop from 60 to 30fps that is giving people the notion that something is wrong with the mechanics of the 3DS version. I will say though that many of the non-interactive sequences in the 3DS demo seem to run at a slower rate than on the retail game. Hopefully, this sort of feedback is the reason why the game got delayed yet again so that they can fix the problems and give us a good port instead of a crappy one.
