Average customer review:Product Description
The rabbids have had enough of losing to Rayman, but going home may cause more mayhem than staying. You see, they've decided that the best way to leave Earth is to build a tower of rubbish all the way to the moon (not that they're certain that's where they came from).
- Playing as the maniacal rabbit creatures you tour each level in a shopping trolley collecting anything that's not tied down and a lot that isn't: from a chest of drawers to a runaway cow. Many items give you special abilities, like a skyscraper chase in a giant bubble and an aircraft jet engine that lets you suck up even more objects.
- With the rabbids' trademark humour still intact (your basic attack scares the clothes off humans, which you can then collect as well) and some of the best cartoon style graphics on the Wii this is a clever evolution from the old mini-game collections.
Key Features
- The rabbids have landed: The rabbids return in their first all action comedy adventure, with a very peculiar mission to the moon.
- Detritus Rex: Terrorise the population and nab objects for your collection - then deliver them to your unlikely space tower.
- Alternative transport: Catch a ride on a jet engine or inside a giant bubble as weird new objects offer up exciting mini-game missions.
- Steal 'n' go: Simple controls mean anyone can play, just jump aboard the shopping trolley and start terrorising the populace in true rabbid style.
- Race relations: Crazy cartoon style graphics look great on the Wii, with huge levels filled with thing to smash and grab.
- About the Developer: Ubisoft Montpellier
- Home to both Rayman and superstar producer Michel Ancel, this French studio has also been responsible for such classics as Beyond Good & Evil, King Kong and the original Rayman Raving Rabbids . It's also working on an adaption of the new Tintin movie from

Fantastic
Just picked this up today, and have already played it for about 5 hours straight! Easily one of the funniest, zaniest games to have ever existed, the rabbids are just packed with character, and the gameplay is excellent. The controls are very tight and responsive, and the handling on the shopping cart is fluid.
Create a character mode is a blast, and has some really unique options for customising your personal object-collection squad. Having them appear in the gameplay and al cutscenes is really something to behold.
The only thing letting it down is the ocasions glitch; once I have had to restart a level, and once the game froze, requiring a restart. I had hoped such problems had been left behind this generation, but I guess not.
Had it not been for these small problems, this game would have scored a complete 5/5, but is instead a very reasonable 4/5.
I expect to see this filling everyones stocking this christmas!
Brilliant, Hilarious game
Wow, what can I say! I bought this game on the day it came out and have been addicted ever since. Those crazy bunnies really make me laugh, and as you go through each level you collect presents which mean you can decorate your Rabbid with tatto's and accessories.
My girl rabbid who already came dressed in red lace G-string style underwear, is now sporting blue eyeshadow, pink lipstick, many tatto's and is wearing a traffic cone on her head!
I haven't had any problem with the gameplay, in terms of screens freezing etc, the only problem I have had is a swollen thumb, and paralysed arms from playing it until 4am in the morning.
I really like the music they play when you go into the elevators and the shopping malls, and the comments you get from the people when you chase them and then steal all their clothes and credit cards.
I haven't got any of the other rabbid games so cant make a comparison to those, but I do have about 30 other Wii games and this is by far my favourite.
Who ever designed it, has a really good sense of humour. It makes me laugh outloud, especially when I deliberately electrocute my rabbid (it likes it) as it rolls around the floor laughing.
Great for an evening's laughs with friends or 5 minutes alone.
I've really have tried (and failed) to "get" the whole gaming thing before, but Rabbids are my guilty secret!
The Wii remained mostly untouched until I discovered Rabbids TV Party, and I was wondering if this could live up to the fun and nonsense of that.
The wondering stopped the moment I loaded it, installed the Rabbid channel, and discovered the real live Rabbid living in my remote! I soon had him bouncing around, spinning off the turntable and giggling as I electrocuted his toes with a dangling wire. The electrocution became even more fun when I discovered you can totally personalise the Rabbid to look startlingly like Gordon Brown. Or you can download rabbids entered in previous week's "dressing up" competitions.
Once in the game, the music is great. Loads of original tracks you'll recognise, and the surround sound works really well.
As it doesn't say in the song: "Rabbids to the front of me, baddies to the back, here I am stuck in the middle with BWAAAAHHHH!".
I like the fact that there's a slightly politically incorrect edge to this game, and it tickled us when the scouts are all running around on one level and the scoutmaster shouts "Slippery Beaver, where are you?!". The tannoy announcements are very witty too.
The gameplay is smooth and detailed although some levels are more challenging than others. The whole thing is highly polished with lots of touches. On any stage, level or screen, if you leave the game alone for a bit, you'll come back to find the rabbids doing something naughty.
It's not without a couple of glitches - I found myself having "glitched" through a wall a couple times, trapped with no way out, and once a wall vanished, turned white, and I fell into endless white space and had to restart the level.
But seeing as I've now finished the game and overall it's so much fun, I'm not going to detract a star for that.
You'll definitely want a second player to help you though, but the beauty of this game is that you can spend from 5 minutes alone making music in "Cack-o-phony", or a whole evening screaming in abject hilarity with a friend on the sofa as you race a ticking timebomb cow against the clock!
Yes, I'm a grown up. Yes, I really should know better. But there's a Rabbid in my remote and he's in control...
Now if you'll excuse me, I have to dress my Rabbid up like Jedward and slap it around with a big foam hand...
