Ancel using small team to make BG&E2

Sure it'll be awhile before it comes out, but it's still being worked on, so that is the good news.

I made a forum a few years ago based off my favorite video games, and added a Beyond Good & Evil section to it: Brain Dead Circle.

We finally got what we wished for...though I hope it's on PC too, like the first one was, or the Wii. I'm not an 360 fan, nor PS3 one (I'm too cheap to buy a $600 game system).

mood: excited

hey what's everyone's favourite part of the movie?

From the press release:

"Today Ubisoft, one of the world's largest video game publishers announced plans to release the fourth instalment of the Rayman franchise, now officially titled Rayman Raving Rabbids, worldwide in Holiday 2006. Scheduled for current and next-generation video game consoles, Rayman Raving Rabbids also joins the line-up as an official launch title for Nintendo's Wii, formerly known as Nintendo's Revolution gaming system, and its innovative controller. Rayman Raving Rabbids is being developed by Ubisoft's award-winning studio in Montpellier, France led by Michel Ancel, creator of the original Rayman game, the critically acclaimed Beyond Good & Evil and Peter Jackson's King Kong: The Official Game of the Movie."

Jeux Expo posted an article stating that BG&E2 was currently in pre-production. However, Ubisoft hasn't comfirmed that as of yet. It's funny to see just how fast the rumor has spread though. I'm just hoping it's more than just a rumor. C'mon Ubisoft, don't let us down!

Other sites with BG&E2 info: Joystiq and British Gaming Blog and many more.

On another note, I've just opened up the Beyond Good & Evil Fanlisting, in case anyone would like to join. Show the BG&E love :)

Edit: Alrighty, I'm not as fluent in French as I'd like to be (why didn't I pay attention in French?!), but I think I can understand what this article is saying.
I think it says that Ubisoft has confirmed that BG&E2 is being made, and that Jade will have two outfits to wear. oO It also mentions that BG&E2 will be on the next-gen consoles. And the approximate release date is Autumn 2007.
I still find it a bit fishy, since I'd like to hear all this from Ubisoft first. Then I shall proceed to squeal like the little fangirl that I am. ;)

Edit 2: I'm terribly sorry for all the editing I'm doing, but this time I bring bad news. It would appear that Ubisoft said the rumor was false. It could be that they just want to keep it as a surprise for E3, or that they simply aren't working on it yet.

mood: cheerful

This remix has been out for quite some time, but if you haven't already listened to it you can find it here: http://www.ocremix.org/remix/OCR01189/
Beautiful job on this remix Aurora, Destructo, and SuperGreenX. :)

I made an art piece to go along with this:

This is an old art piece, but I figure I need to spice up this community some. Please let this year bring a Beyond Good & Evil 2.

music: Frame of Mind mood: okay

Well, I was looking for interests in Beyond Good & Evil and found no community about this game. Which is just sad. Thus, I decided to make one. I'm not sure how long the community will last, but Beyond Good & Evil needed a community.
