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

That's because they literally are the shell of a company they used to be. Most of the ones that worked during Nintendo's "Dream Team" era aren't with Rare anymore. Some went with Martin Hollis to Zoonami. Some formed Free Radical. Some joined Nintendo. What was left was this hollow of a company that used to exist with all these wonderful properties. It's actually quite sad. I wish Nintendo would have kept those when they sold them off but oh well. Guess we'll just continue to let this new Rare tamper with them.

 

This, all the left over guys have seemed to do right is make updates to old games, like Conker BFD on Xbox and the Golden Eye update for XBL that was never released, otherwise it's been a waste of money on MS's end.  The guys left at Rare seem to be on easy street though, making only a couple of games since they've been bought and not even having to worry about the quality, I mean everyone got excited over a new Banjo game and then felt let down but no one was surprised, which is sad.
