Rayman 2: The Great Escape

Note: The timing of the code is very precise. It is performed to the rhythm of the game's theme song. Hold R, pause, release R, hold R, pause, release R, hold R, release R, hold R during game play.

Play the "Marshes Of Awakening" level after the first time. When you have all Lums/Cages, when Ssssssssam drops you off at the end of the level, in the intermission sequence, Sssssssam will be gone.

In "The Precipice" level, go to the area that is immediately after the area with the green water to the right and a mountain to the left. When first falling down and grabbing the red Lum set, veer right and do not follow the yellow Lums, hugging the wall as you do so. Continue to do this until nothing but black is seen. If done correctly, this glitch will make it seem as if Rayman is in a "black hole", where everything is black and he falls endlessly. He will eventually die from falling, however. This glitch can also happen in other areas.

In the "The Tomb Of The Ancients" level, go to the area that is immediately after the three floating oil cans and go to the next area (not the Skull with the Lum in the eye, but the regular route). As you open the gate, hop on the first barrel. Jump from the first barrel to second. Charge your fist at the pirate standing at the end of the small cliff. As the water steepens down, you can release the fist. The momentum of the barrel will launch it at the pirate, killing him before the barrel stops moving. This will also work if you jump off as the water steepens; Rayman will be projected forward and will be able to helicopter to the end of the barrel's path.

On the first level, where you first see Murphy, keep going through the level until you get to the space hole with the Teensies. Keep jumping in it until you get a "Try again". Go to the location where you got your first Lum. You will see another Rayman, but he does not move.

In order to get 100% at the game select menu you have to find a secret Lums in the Tomb of the Ancients level. In the first part of the level, after having activated the 3 switches that raise the platforms in the poisonous pond, jump on these floating platforms and climb the web on the other side. Once at the top, instead of just falling down the pit, place yourself at the edge of the wall, to the left (when facing the poisonous pond), Then, fly over the pond, go as far to the left as possible to find a narrow hall in the wall, and land on the platform. Follow this path and kill some pirates to get the 1,000th Lums in the skull's eye.

Go near the first frog in the Aztec Level to get the code to get 75% from the fairy.

To escape from Whale Bay, free Carmen and while you are in the part where the sharks are stealing her bubbles. Go into the ship with lots of air. Go to the window and swim up. Get the cage and the Teensie will take you to the Sanctuary Of Lava And Fire.

On the object with patches on it (machine that shoots things), pick up the bag. Every time you see a shot, press B(2). When you get to the machine, press A. Get the bag again and repeat the process until all patches are gone and the machine is destroyed.

When you see the triangle, walk up the stairs and flip the switch. Then, go back down and ride the rocket where the water is located and jump it. Open that door get a health.

When you see a sleeping pirate, you can charge up your fist and aim at him. The pirate will die while asleep.

Use the following trick to ride the walking shell in the Menhir Hills, Gloobox level, just before Whale Bay and the Sanctuary of Lava and Fire. Let it run after you, but make sure it does not catch you. It will start to snooze. When it is asleep, walk into it.

In any level of the game, enter this timed sequence to have the biggest life bar available and refill it. You may need some practice to do it since it's timed: listen to the thematic music of the game, which does something like "tam, tatam, tatatatam" and reproduce the timing using the right (or is it left? sorry it was a looonnng time ago) trigger. When you read the sequence, 'R' is "hold right trigger", 'r' is "release right trigger" and '...' indicates a small duration. It's really easy to do once you got it: all in all, you're just going to press the R button four times.

Successfully complete the game and wait for the ending sequence to begin. Quickly and repeatedly press A + B. A message will confirm correct code entry. In Nemesis, you are an "E" that can shoot. There are enemies that are "X"s that can also shoot, and a Boss "O" that can shoot in any direction.

Whilst the ending is playing, press A+B simultaneously and repeatedly, to play the Nemesis Minigame.

Press A, Up, Left, Right, Left, Right during game play to play the racing mini-game at the end of a level, regardless of the number of Lums collected.

When you end a level, there a Lums count and, if you have enough, you go to the race minigame. During the Lums count, you can enter this code to unlock the race event if you don't have enough Lums. For the curious ones, this code is the music sequence for "The Minuet of Forest" in Zelda Ocarina of Time, since the race occurs in the forest.
