Raving Rabbids gets the preview treatment

Now that's one ugly bunny!

Apparently the ruler of the cannibalistic humanoid underground-dwelling bunnies (see: rabbids), this dude is not a member of the Rayman fan club. As such, Rayman must utilize the power of appeal and gain popularity in the underground society in order to challenge the status of this hulking behemoth.

During the preview, it's revealed that Michel Ancel's major inspiration for this game was the movie Gladiator. As such, Rayman will take part in over 70 different scenarios where he must entertain the bunnies, winning them over into his fan club. These different contests is where the versatility of the Wiimote most appealed to Ancel. By winning these contests, and in turn the admiration of these insane bunnies, Rayman can then unlock items to customize his jail cell.
