three at a time? he'd be glad to take on all of them! I'll just go plummet over there while the real show is about to begin! 🎙️🎼💕✨🌟🎶🎵 (I'm sure Rayman wants to pummel Phantom over his remarks against him)

Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory
Admittedly, Chaos Theory was fairly disappointing on a replay. I had remembered it being great, but there's only a few solid levels before it dips down in quality fairly rapidly. The level design was often muddled, with it being very unclear where to go. The variety of environments was also lacking, with it feeling fairly samey. Maybe one of the more disappointing replays I've done.

Do you remember that post where @strawbunniiee measured Phantom's height in Kingdom Battle?
He was measured using Peach as a reference and he was a bit less than 5m (16.4ft) tall if I recall correclty.
I just wanted to make a new one as now we have an even more reliable measurement as he actually stands still next to a character we know the height of.
Behold the new unit of measure: the Rabbid Mario. Which is approximatively 1.50m (4.9ft) according to the life size statue of him in the Ubisoft Milan Studios.
Tumblr media
With this, we can accurately say Phantom is almost 3 Rabbid Marios tall, so almost 4.50m (14.7ft) tall.
And for his thiccness waist size he's 2 Rabbid Marios, so 3m (9.8ft).

In 2010, Rayman was dead. After two popular minigame collections with his then-co-stars, the Rabbids, Rayman was usurped from his throne as Ubisoft’s mascot and relegated to cameo appearances in games like Academy of Champions: Soccer. Sam Fisher has suffered a similar fate recently.
Then, a miracle - Ubisoft released Rayman Origins, a gorgeous 2D platformer with excellent movement, incredible music, and enough charm to make you forget all about the limbless wonder getting kicked out of his own series. Not a Rabbid in sight.
Origins was an incredible new beginning for Rayman, but it was only the beginning. Two years later, Ubisoft Montpellier did it again with Rayman Legends. Not content to simply be an improvement on the first game, Legends was one of the best 2D platforming games of all time. It looked like things were only going to get better.
Tumblr media
Unfortunately, despite massive critical success, Rayman faded into the background once more, with only a few minor mobile games since then. Now, his long decade of silence is finally over thanks to Ubisoft Milan who, ironically enough, have brought Rayman back in a game that stars the very creatures who originally kicked him out.
“I would say that I started thinking about the DLC as soon as I saw the work on Sparks of Hope going in the right direction,” Sparks of Hope’s creative director Davide Solani tells me. “I loved the idea of closing this fantastic journey of Sparks of Hope with Rayman, as Rabbids were originally introduced in a Rayman game. I felt it was the correct thing to do”.
Rayman in the Phantom Show marks Rayman’s first appearance in a game in some time, which gave Ubisoft Milan the opportunity to redesign the character for his reintroduction, which also marks the first time he’s been in 3D since his Super Smash Bros. Trophy model in 2014.
Tumblr media
Solani tells me that extensive work went into designing Rayman’s new look for the game, with the idea being to aim for something “new, current, and fitting for our universe”. Specific effort went into Rayman’s facial expressions and the body and shoes, for which the team challenged themselves to “dare a little” by introducing pockets and a larger hood to give the limbless wonder more comfort and a sense of identity outside of adventuring.
Of course, one of the most important elements of Rayman’s design is his hair which, beyond the whole lack of limbs thing he’s got going on, is one of the key parts of the character’s identity. Rayman’s hair is used both to fly and to look fly, and it’s a core part of this look.
“[It’s] one of the most 'representative' parts of the character,” Solani says. “We wanted to avoid just an indistinct mass, but also not to go overboard with details. We therefore focused on creating this balance between volume and details. A fully animatable tuft that would help to underline the character's charisma and emotions.”
Rayman may have a new design this time around, but Sparks of Hope isn’t above referencing the hero’s past. The Phantom Show is stuffed with nods to Rayman’s history, including reworked versions of his combat fatigues from Hoodlum Havoc, a cutout of Globox and some plum juice from the same game, a cardboard recreation of the first level from the adventure that started it all, and even some shoutouts to the pirates from Rayman 2.
Tumblr media
Another Easter Egg Solani points out is Rayman’s weapon in the game, which resembles the plunger gun that he used in Raving Rabbids. You’d think that Rayman would want to avoid memories of that particular encounter considering everything that happened after, but he’s rocking a brand-new one in the Phantom Show.
“I loved the idea of paying a tribute to the plunger, in a way,” Solani tells me. “With my team, we’ve imagined how a new plunger could look like years later, and how this new basic weapon could be transformed through the various costume transformations, and what special ability could result from each. It was a fun process for us.”
It’s not just Rayman himself who returns for the Phantom Show, as the DLC also sees the return of David Gasman, the voice of the limbless wonder for nearly all of the games in the series before Douglas Rand took over the role for Origins, Legends, and the mobile spin-offs.
Tumblr media
“Like many players, for me, David Gasman is Rayman’s voice. Also, we did use David as Rabbid Mario in Sparks of Hope, and it was a tremendously fun experience working with him. The idea of having him going crazy to voice both Rayman and Rabbid Mario was too good to miss. “
One of the most interesting things about the DLC is that it’s not just a reunion between Rayman and the player, it’s a reunion between Rayman and the Rabbids as well. The limbless wonder hasn’t been on-screen with them properly since TV Party, with only a small cameo from the screaming nuisances in Rayman Adventures between then and now.
The DLC plays into this time gap, with Rayman holding a grudge against the Rabbids when he first runs into them. Solani says that this was one of the ideas that the team worked with and that they loved seeing Rayman and the Rabbids bickering, but that they start to work together across the expansion, as Rayman quickly gets over his grudges in the name of being a hero.
Tumblr media
Rayman in the Phantom Show closes the door on Rayman’s past while being brutally honest about the hero’s long absence. It has fans wondering if the DLC opens another door for his future, one that many want Ubisoft Milan to be involved with.
“We don’t know yet what we’ll do in the future,” Solani says. “But I can assure you that working on Rayman was a true honour for all of us.”

Hello! Hope the Covid situation is going well and you, fiance and doggo are all alright!
To lift up the mood, I just relized if in the Space Opera Network there's a set for a cooking show, this silly skit might become reality, lol.
Tumblr media
Thank you!! I'm pretty much back to normal (and Victor never caught it!! ...Nor did Shadow XD), although I have been more tired than usual since recovering, but I don't know if that's just because I have been sitting around too much and gotten lazy, lol.
YES, I was thinking about this, and also when we were talking about Phantom hanging around the Ubisoft Milan office to whine at them... What if he possessed the doll as a means of entering our dimension? Remember when he fell off the shelf in the background lol
On the Space Opera Network, I can imagine him trying to upstage any of his guests. Like he has invited Alkementor for a cooking show but as he's explaining how to make the perfect sparkling water, Phantom pops through the wall and is like "Why don't you try this?? Don't you think this flavor would work better??"

Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Pandora Tomorrow
Pandora Tomorrow was fine, but it was a slightly less janky version of the original. I don't see any real reason not to skip straight to Chaos Theory.

You know it’s actually more of a misconception that Rabbids “stole” the series despite the claims. Every main Rayman game was made by Ubisoft Montpellier where Michel Ancel worked at. From Rayman 1 all the way up to Rayman Legends Montpellier only worked on 2 rabbids game the first Rayman Raving Rabbids and Rabbids Go Home. They haven’t touched Rabbids since 2009.
It’s actually Ubisoft Paris who made all of the other Rabbids games From Raving Rabbids 2 and onwards. Ubisoft Paris hasn’t worked on Rayman since the 90s. They even helped out Ubisoft Milan in Sparks of Hope. Aside from rabbids the other games they worked on is Just Dance. People tend to forget how huge Ubisoft actually is seriously they employ over 19000 people.
Fun fact Rayman Origins started development in 2008 by Ubisoft Montpellier.
oh i didnt know about those details!
but in general that conception that some radical fans have against the rabbids always seemed to me stupid,cause it aint the fault of em but the people who consumes em (and not really) and ubisoft,or part of it who saw the golden goose xD
