  Overall
 

Ubisoft seems to understand where Nintendo is heading with the Wii, and they are right behind them developing games the right way. Rayman Raving Rabbids takes a step in a way different direction from its previous installments. This is always a risky move in game development, but it has definitely paid off for Ubisoft. The game represents what the Wii is all about: easy, simple, and just plain fun. The only problem is this game is a little too simple for $50. With just around 70 short minigames, many of which are reused, the story mode can be beaten in just a few days. After that, the only thing to do is replay the exact same games all over again or with a friend. There are no online modes, harder difficulties, or anything else of significance. Rayman Raving Rabbids is a fun and enjoyable game, but after a week’s play there is nothing left to do but replay and replay again.

  Sweet to the Core
  Controls. Excellent use of Wii Remote and Nunchuck

 Audio. Wonderfully wacky!

  Going Bad
 Graphics. Not even close to comparing with games on the PS3 or 360, but decent for the Wii.

 Short Games . 70 is a good amount of games, but the games are short and can be played through quickly.

  Rotten to the Core
 No Real Story. The story mode is very shallow and focuses just on the minigames.

 No Online Multiplayer. Playing minigames online would have been an awesome feature, but you won

 Reused Content. Videos and even actual minigames are used multiple times and it gets old.
