Nope. The last thing they did I liked was Golden eye and at that point my donga was so pointless my tongue was
Well lets keep this pg.....
Heres the point. Most people dont know who the hell rare are. They know the symbol from old donkey kong from snes and golden eye from N64.

Nobody knows what banjo is. nobody cares who rare is unless you say those people who created the donkey kong games when we were kids are creating another game. The best reaction you get most time from them is oh well they have gone crap.

Not even my words, just when I say to people guess what dev made this game that has now made this game?



The only thing they had going for them was the fact they could have gone back and made donkey kong. Another dev has done that so rare is like the sexy girlfriend you had years ago who you split up with then met years later to find out she turned into a fat stinking drunk.

 

Edit: You are putting this dev against aginst a full company of devs consist of:

Polyphony Digital (1)

Naughty Gods (2)

Santa Monica (3)

Japan Studio

Guerrilla (4)

Media Molecule

Need I go on? I know things can be subjective but to me this just seems overly silly. Sorry if I come across overly pompous but some things are just not up for debate. I believe this is one of them.

(1) gran turismo hasn't been good since ps2 days, probably a-spec was the peak of the series. they do nothing else but gt and people aren't exactly clamoring for it. (plus racing simulators are in decline generally: see forza horizon 2's abysmal sales.)

(2) interactive movie makers

(3) last good game was in 2010 (god of war 3); since then biggest game was ps all stars which was a smash bros rip off and more or less objectively a turd of a game (and boy did it sell like one).

(4) are you kidding?

you'll notice i exempt japan studio and media molecule. they're very different from one another but are alike in their commitment to quality at their best. listing a bunch of stuff =/= making a point. and i'm just about the furthest thing from an ms fan.

also i don't know what a donga is but the internet tells me it is "a small ravine with steep sides."

ND games are far from "interactive movies" aka Heavy Rain/ Beyond lol c'mon that's a lame reason. They've also improved on UC2 -> UC3 multiplayer & TLoU is unique albeit I haven't played the online too much. I can somewhat understand people complaining over their gameplay & how it doesn't do anything innovative but their controls are solid & crisp.
