RARE without Nintendo is not what it was to be....

You are correct. I don't think many will contend against the notion either.

During the N64 years, Rare made 2 AAA games every year. No company has managed to do that since including themselves.

While I agree that RARE at their peak were pretty much the only guys who could slug it out with Nintendo in terms of quality over time, I really wish you hadn't said that.

Said what?  That for 5 years straight Rare managed to release 2 AAA quality titles each year and no one has been capable of that mark since?

 

Was it really 2 per year? I loved Rare back in the day but... lemme think...

I wouldn't call KIGold, Blast Corps (which I love dearly), Jet Force Gemini or Mickey Kart Racing AAA titles.

Hrm... not quite, but close enough.

*sigh* I miss the N64 days...
