Rayman Origins looks nice and all but should a 2D game really be commanding full retail price? I mean that kind of stuff belongs on XBLA or PSN. I really wish this console gen had more 3D platformers. It's nice that developers are looking to the past for inspiration and there's a lot of creativity in these 2D games but I wish platformers would go back to being brick and mortar big budget releases with 3D graphics that showcase the hardware like they were on the 128 bit game systems. It's BS that gamess like Killzone and COD get $40 million dollar budgets but we're still waiting this whole generation on a new Sly Cooper or Oddworld.

Im a bit skeptical about Rayman as well, but overall Im looking forward to it, despite its price point. I also share your feelings on 3D platformers this gen, there are next to none, which makes me sad. Especially as a 360 only owner, since most of the PS3 and Wii platformers are first party, I just get shitty movie games for the most part. I do see why Killzone and CoD get those budgets while platformers do not though.
