You should change all those Guardian quotes to "...industry had past [sic] Rare by..."

when he says "their skillsets were from a different time and a different place " he obviously means when they worked for nintendo. the only quality rare games came out on the 64, and hopefully Peter Moore's words will finally kick some sense into rare to come back!

I'm sure Nuts & Bolts will be fine. But it's hard to be as good as you were when most of your team left.

So Peter Moore likes to talk poorly about his ex's? REAL mature!

Must... suppress... Rare fanboy rage.......

I had written off Rare after their two mediocre Xbox outings and their lousy 360 launch titles. But then they released Viva Pinata and Jetpac Refuelled, showing that they still have that creative spark. I don't think Rare has anything to worry about.

Why would you get too upset? Unless your a deaf fan-boy (is there any other kind), he's talking sense.

Rare haven't come up with anything near as decent(or major) since they left Nintendo.

Unfortunate, but I'm tired of us all giving them second chances with "Ooooh, new Banjo Kazooie, maybe they can finally port an IP from the Nintendo days without making it suck!"

Already got VP2, gonna pick up Nuts and Bolts. I say, the $40 point makes these games perfect, I was able to trade in The Simpsons, Civ Rev, and the old Viva Pinata and get the game for free and credit back.

More Co-op family fun time games please!

Rare is a funny subject. We all loved what they did in the past, but that doesn't mean a whole heckuva lot in the present. I remember everyone going head over heels for Atari back in the day, too. Anyone still doing it? Sooner (rather than later), you need to pony up, and show us another line-up of great games with the rare name on them.

What would Denis Dyack say about this? Nintendo let Silicn Knights go as well. Also, Factor 5 was let go and all they came out with was Lair.

Rare's new games have been lacking lately. It's not that the market doesn't want the kind of games that they're making.

I enjoyed Kameo plenty.

Rare has not had anything decent since donkey kong country games on snes.

There N64 stuff sucked balls, except for Ki gold, (and really how hard could it be to screw up a srcade port).

Golden eye sucked balls and nobody into FPS cared about fps on a damn weak ass console when PC people where playing quake 2 online and had ground breaking UNreal engine games in like 1998 after that looked and played 60 fucking times better than even perfect dark they put out in 2000.

So who the fuck cared about rare or it's to lame console FPS? nobody but little kids and people too clueless to use a PC they think and still think it is the "BEst thing ever" when in fact it blows.

jet force gemni is total garbage.

donkey kong 64 is now a a even lamer mario clone that some how took everything bad from every 3d platfomer out at the time and turned into a collect a thon and some of the worst music on n64 (and that is saying somthing since the n64 hardware sounded like crap.)



No no after all that n64 crap they was improving on gamecube and xbox 360 there games are now at least decent to look at.

oh no wait never mind grabbed by the ghoules was total crap too, I take it back again I forgot about that.

And conker... well that is just better by the fact that it was no longer constrained by the poor designed n64 and it was still an average 8 out of ten game, that only lived what little life it had on it's s"hock value" od what it was doing.

much like the crappy mortal kombat games did, and now that it has wore of they still keep coming back thanks to there rose tinted glasses.

Some one was is even more of an idiot for not playing theere last damn game starfox adventures on gamecube that has the large RARE logo stamped on it.




god dude I don't that looks like some major gamecube coding to me.

Some of it might have even gotten into Conker remake on xbox OMG!>!

Seriously do you even play the games you say are so good and or do not exist?


banjo kazooie sucked and it music was annoying as hell, it bunch of poorly mized banjo music that sounded even more crap on n64 than it would have in real life.

and if you think banjo looks good then you did not see any real GPU's on PC pumping out graphics at home since it was a freaking blocky mess even for a n64 game it looked bad.

and as for perfect dark played like crap, and it story was some for gettable lame ass story about aliens and some spy chick where I had to fairy some flying laptop alien or some junk around an office with AI gaurds as dumb as rocks and blury textures that all looked exctly the same on every level.

It is like the crappy libary level on halo 1 but for the whole game.


rare never was great there time passed and went after they did something nobody seen on the SNES in graphics and sound (not i am not imcluding good gameplay) and that was it, then they went down the toliet with nintendo during the n64 days, no wonder they are targeting other markets on wii now and dumped rare that was when sony and microsoft started walking all over them.
