Their fall? R.I.P Rare?
They seem to be doing well right now on the 360. I think they have just got to figure out where they fit in on the 360 still. They had the gaming world by the balls when they were with Nintendo, but things changed when they moved on over to Microsoft. Their games were still good, just that it was a different market over there. Perfect Dark was not longer the big game that it once was. There were other shooter/action games out there that people wanted to play. Banjo Kazooie was still a great game, but for reasons I do not think I can mention here, it was not for the 360.

Does Microsoft own Rare or are they just being ..leased..(I do not know the right term) by them? If leased, when is that lease up?


Note that I said "fall of the old Rare".

They're nothing like they used to be, and, as far as I know, Robin Beinland is pretty much the only great Rare employee that's left. The rest is pretty much people that Microsoft ordered in.
