E308: Buns-on with Raving Rabbids TV Party
![]()
I am happy to report that Raving Rabbids TV Party maintains the same balance of well-designed, intelligent motion-based minigames and puerile humor that have made the first two Rabbids games a not-so-guilty delight. The addition of the Balance Board just means that the team at Ubisoft has a new tool in their ongoing effort to compose you look ridiculous. Which I certainly did while sitting on the floor impersonate to sled in the middle of the E3 show floor.
My demo consisted, obviously, the Balance Board-based sledding minigame, in which you control a Rabbid riding an upturned wildebeest (or similar ungulate) down a mountain. You control your movement by leaning on the board, and attempt to slalom amoung flags. It’s a lot like the skiing game in Wii Fit, actually, apart from on your butt. (Note to self: try
Some ramps launch you not only into the air, but into another minigame within the minigame, in which you pull off aerial tricks by performing QTE-style motions. The tricks all entail striking ridiculous poses with the wildebeest. After three to four tricks, you hit the ground again.
The other level being shown was a dancing game in which up to four players use Wiimote and Nunchuk poses to match outlines scrolling across the screen. I would have played it, but far too many citizens were lined up to dance along to the Austin Powers theme. folks really seemed to love that demo.
