Forums - Nintendo - Rare is overrated if you ask me...

 

Is Rare Overrated?

Yes, they are 105 37.10%
 
No, they deserve the praise 178 62.90%
 
Total:283

I always see people praising Rare for their work in the 90s with Nintendo, but honestly, I don't think they are really THAT good

DKC 1 and 2 were pretty good, 3 is no doubt the worst in trilogy

I didn't like Banjo Kazooie, I'm not a fan of running around just to find stuff, I would take SM64 over Banjo any day. Banjo Tooie is pretty much the same

Jet Force Gemini was ehhh, just go play Gears of War for a better TPS

Never played DK64 or Conker, might pick up DK soon but Conker is just to expensive

GoldenEye is not very good either, not only is it not a very good FPS, but I don't think it is a very good game in general.

Also never played Diddy Kong racing, but I think I will just stick to Mk64 thank you very much

Last but not least

Star Fox Adventures SUCKED, I want a on rails shooter, not a bad Zelda clone

But what says you?

If you're not a fan of running around to find stuff then how are you a Nintendo fan?

Kinda weird your playing Metroid Prime Trilogy.



So you're judging their games to today's standards?

Metroid is different, Banjo is just running around on a small world, while in Metroid you are exploring a labyrinth type maze, which is actually fun to explore, unlike Banjo

Saying that, I love all 3 Metroid Prime games

When did I say that? I do in fact own a N64 and have the DKC trilogy on GBA

Also I don't own Perfect Dark nor have I played it

GoldenEye is legendary. It was a pioneer for FPS on the console platform. It might not look very impressive today, but in 1997...



Current gaming platforms - Switch, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Wii U, New 3DS, PC
