Rayman Raving Rabbids TV Party to invade DS

Rayman's Raving Rabbids games might not have always been the best quality gaming experiences, but you can't say they're not funny. We're not ashamed to say we've stifled many a snigger watching them stuffing their ugly faces with food, dancing inappropriately to disco music and while shooting at them with sink plungers.

Which means we're actually thinking Ubisoft's just-announced new Raving Rabbids game, Rayman Raving Rabbids TV Party, could be quite good. Not least because it promises to parody a whole range of TV shows, pop culture and even advertisements throughout the game, which sees the Rabbids invading people's televisions.

Ubisoft announced the game, which is due for release in time for Christmas, for both DS and Wii, with the Wii one taking centre stage in the announcement because it will be controlled with the console's Balance Board.

Pah, we're not interested. What we want to know about is the handheld version. Alas, few details were available on the DS game, but Ubisoft says it will be on show in all of its cackling Rabbid glory at E3 in July.
