Geek vs Life

Rayman Raving Rabbids for the Wii was awesome, and it didn’t seem like either of the other systems would be able to touch it. It was closer in feel to a platformer on things that have already come out. And I’ve been wrong before, and I’m wrong here. For the Xbox 360, and those that own the little webcam thingy, you can do motion capture for physical movement in the game, and it has a couple exclusive titles! Wii! Err…no, wait….

Official fact sheet after the jump. (And the Rayman Valentine)

Rayman Raving Rabbids™

Product Description
Developed by the team behind Beyond Good & Evil™ and Peter Jackson’s King Kong: The Official Game of the Movie, Rayman Raving Rabbids™ is the edgiest and most off-the-wall gaming experience in the history of the Rayman® franchise.

This new Rayman game features the funniest, zaniest, wackiest antics ever when hordes of nasty bunnies invade Rayman’s world and he is enslaved and forced to participate in a series of gladiator-style trials. In order to win his freedom, Rayman must entertain and outwit these crazed, out-of-control bunnies.
