So since the take over Rare has failed to deliver a single massively successful game or franchise for Microsoft. Its game quality has been the joke of the industry. So with Rare having developed a fresh IP VivaPinata for Microsoft that IP is suddenly like gold. Microsoft wants to see RareWare succeed and return to its prior glory. |
I liked your post...but this part is a massive fail. Games take much longer to develop these days so Rare won't have a hit every 6 months and calling a company "laughing stock" just because they are not the top company in the industry is not fair. If this is true, other laughing stocks should include Naughty Dog, Sonic Team (they are a laughing stock actually), Free Radical, Ninja Theory...etc. I don't see those being any better than RareWare.
4 games released by rare in microsofts hands are-

Viva Pinata rated 84 - http://www.metacritic.com/games/platforms/xbox360/vivapinata?q=viva
Conker for xbox rated 78- http://www.metacritic.com/games/platforms/xbx/conkerliveandreloaded?q=bad%20fur%20day
Well above industry average. Rare was something amazing in the n64 era but they are not the "joke of the industry" today. I'd still gladly have Rare developing from my console over 80% of devs
