I loved playing Rayman 3, its fun, colourful and very funny... Just don’t be expecting either a major leap forward for the platform game genre or a stiff challenge as its lacking in both.
It's pretty, it's quite a challenge, and is loaded with rewards. But you'll quickly come to the conclusion that for all its charms, it doesn't offer enough new ideas, and that its competition is just too strong.

There's a certain amount of wit and flair evident throughout Hoodlum Havoc's cut-scenes, and there are certainly some very slick production values. The problem is that, in terms of raw enjoyment, the game is somehow underwhelming. [May 2003, p.104]

Rayman 3 enfatiza el humor, el ritmo frenético y la interacción con los enemigos, más que la lectura precisa del espacio. Los niveles son más variados y el juego introduce elementos de combate y power-ups que amplían el vocabulario de acción, aunque a costa de cierta claridad y pureza en la plataforma. Sin embargo, sigue siendo notable por cómo cada acción, cada salto y cada objeto se siente como parte de un sistema coherente: aquí, la diversión surge del juego mismo, no de la narrativa. Más espectáculo, sí, pero con fundamento jugable.

Rayman 3 is the best platformer I've played. I honestly have no complaints after playing, Rayman 3 has great replay ability with maximizing your score in levels, or going back for cages you missed. The combat is fantastic in this game and is probably my favorite in any platfomer I've played. 10/10 better then Bomberman Act Zero on the Xbox 360

Rayman 3's most awesome attribute, as incredible as the movies, dialogue, and gameplay are, is a level of visual splendor that defies everything I've come to know about lighting effects in a video game. [Mar 2003, p.47]

Rayman 3 has all the things that make it good, music, gameplay, dialogue, and controls. This is one of the best games on the Gamecube, the HD version is only slightly overwhelming and the others are solid like the Xbox.

Aside from a few new gameplay aspects, this is "Rayman 2" all over again.

Rayman 3 is the best Rayman 3D game, the level design, the music and combo mode are really fun! I love the Easter egg and all secrets!

This is really a 7.5. The graphics are really good! I wish it supported 480p. That said, this game's frickin hard. If you're expecting a basic platform, that's not the case. There's a lot of puzzle elements.
