I agree that the Rareware MS bought and the Rareware that brought us so many classics are night and day different, but you’re wasting words trying to convince the people in this community and whichever others you were referring to. These same people telling you that MS destroyed Rare would have been telling you on the day that MS bought Rare that they were a shell of their former selves and wouldn’t be any good. Look at the new studios MS opened and the downplaying there. Insomniac when they were making an Xbox exclusive versus coming back to Sony. The Obsidian rumor thread. Too far gone.

As much as Rare might have dipped in quality, MS still deserves a lot of blame just sitting on so many great Rare IP’s. Some of the games they’ve released could have been good entries. ReCore with Jet Force Gemini elements? Yes. Super Lucky Tale but not Banjo? Nah. No new Viva Piñata? Perfect Dark? Blast Corps? etc etc
