Give me a link and I'll stop talking about it. My mod friend on Serebii.net forums say that Nintendo still has 51% share of Rare to this date, so show me a link that says Microsoft has 100% of Rare.
Plus, with Rare belonging to Microsoft now, it's like giving a waterlogged gun to your opponent and asking them to shoot you. I don't think that Rare's games on Microsoft are going to work. All of those people who used to work for Rare who worked at Nintendo aren't there anymore; most of the team left. Besides, Rare still doesn't have it's magical charm it once had when they were with Nintendo. All of their games have been 'adultified' in a way that a lot of people lost their appeal to Rare games. I read that Nintendo got pretty mad at Rare when they made Conker's Bad Fur Day for the N64; I saw how that game originally looked. The way that Rare changed it made me think that they got a hold of some pot and effed up their games. I was disappointed in Star Fox Adventure's story; the end of the game. Both Rare and Nintendo effed up that game in the game's ending sequence.
So for me, I feel that Nintendo, Rare, Microsoft, this day and age for 'mature' games has really meant the downfall of Rare. Otherwise I'd think the new character models look like utter crap on Banjo-Kazooie. Naznatips and BenKenobi bothed summed up the whole point of this discussion with pictures.
