Well, I'm not a fan of the old rare so I don't care too much. I do wish they'd use some of the steller IP they have though, they're more than comptant at making games in their current form (VP was awesome)

If I'm not mistaken, you haven't played their older games, so how could you be a fan? Their games were awesome and though I've never played VP, from what I gather their old games had much more warmth than their more modern offerings. I did play Kameo on the 360 and I didn't like it. It felt incomplete. Time would have made them improve that, but as he says in the interview schedule comes first.

What I'm telling you is not magic, Chris explained why in the interview... it's because artistic liberty is cut short there due to modern business constraints. He seems to like Nintendo's approach better, and explains that in detail. Mind you I have my doubts even Nintendo will continue this fine practice, as they need to be absolutely competitive as time passes, but for now he seems still enamoured with Nintendo, so he must be happy with their current ways.

But hey, if you like Rare's current offerings, all the power to you. But the point is they don't have the soul they once had which made Rare what it became, before things went corporate.

But in your favor at least the studio is still good, it's just not great anymore.

You're right I havn't, hence why I'm not a fan. Hence why I don't care.

All I care about is what they're going to bring to the table in the future. If it's Kinect Sports 3,4,5,6 ect that'd suck, If they bring some of their more established IP's out though I'll be happy, (as long as they don't butcher them like Nuts and Bolts)

Viva Pinata was enough for me to know they're good at making fun controller games.

Nntendo fans have some sort of problem with anyone liking Rare these days. You're not getting the IP, the old days back, or old rare staf joining Retro en mass, so just get over it already.
