Hey, if you think Starfox adventures, Banjo Kazooie 3, perfect dark zero, and viva pinata can even hold a candle to the old rare, more power to you.

oh god, i haven't played the other games but starfox adventures is definetly in the running for my most regretted purchase ever.

Well who isn't gonna suck up to a major source of income? What I wouldn't see coming is any developer who wants to continue working with MS coming out and saying natal seems like utter shit and we won't be developing for it. Now that I wouldn't see coming.

As to the article what's interesting is not that Rare like the look and potential of Natal, rather that Rare basically said "we really hated being bought out by MS because they're probably the last console we wanted to be exclusive to". Of course they didn't say it like that but in diplomatic speak "for me this is really the first time that Microsoft and Rare are on a very similar path,"... "But obviously the hardware is aimed at a different demographic, and so we’ve always battled against that." is pretty much as insulting as you can be to someone who totally owns your ass.

But now all is forgiven.

Some people complain...But I'm quite happy with my Avatar..

Thanks Rare!

If it makes you sleep better at night...keep believing that.  I can see how shooters and fighting games just have no palce on the 360...lol.

OH SNAP SON!

Too bad rare hasn't made a good game since the N64.

RIP old Rare =(

Sometimes you're a very difficult person to figure out Zizzla. But I'm going to assume that you agreed with what Ph4nt said.

I thought Live and Reloaded was a good game...And people need to get off of the I hate the new rare wagon anyway..it was not any less annoying when the I hate SE wagon took off...Geddit?

Maybe Rare will come out with a game one of these years.

Seriously.... I mean, what the hell are they working on right now?!?  Their last game was BK: Nuts & Bolts and that was almost a year ago, and we haven't heard a peep since.  It doesn't take THAT long to port Perfect Dark or KI to XBL or to make another Viva Pinata lol!

@ the people saying Rare has not come out with a good game...Here is the ole Meta in the eye

I'm not going to argue against that. But bringing that game to the table as a counter argument to that Rare hasn't made a good game since the N64 days would be kind of silly. Since it's a remake of an N64 game, I mean.

How exactly is it a Remake?

As in they took the N64 game (Conker's Bad Fur Day), improved the graphics and sound, and added a new multiplayer mode.

Kameo was pretty bad. It sucked hardcore compared to their glory days. Donkey Kong Country, and Golden Eye 64 are so much better it is laughable to compare them to anything from the Gamecube era on.
