Hey, Rare and I are the same age.
It would be nice to see more come out of this studio. I really liked Banjo Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts, though I can admit Perfect Dark Zero did fall flat with me. Still haven't gotten around to Viva Pinata yet.

The new logo seems to me like it's selling "vitamin water". Doesn't it look like vitamin water to you? Rare vitamin water.
Looks awfully similar to GameTraders logo in Australia.

Maybe it’s for different studios, like how Rockstar has different colours for Rockstar North and San Deigo.
Either way they’re all nice.

Hmm. Perhaps this is all a big hype-builder for some new avatar clothing? That's pretty much the only noteworthy thing they've done in the last few years...
I liked the old Rare logo. The new one looks lame. Then again, I liked them better before they did Conker's Bad Fur Day.
Kind of an odd selection of choices. Why rebrand the name style while keeping the classic R? I can imagine they'll use the different geometric shapes for different business units/studios or something like that, but this doesn't really communicate clarity very well this way.
Also, apparently the classic R is trademark free in this logo so we can all use it from now on? :)
We can only hope they will start one studio that will focus solely on hex based strategy games...

In before jokes about Rare games always being about collections of things. Still a good enough excuse to go play some Solar Jetman.
Ew... like their game quality, the gold is now gone. The new logos bring to mind cheap but economical plastic.
(I only criticize because I miss their glory... *sniff*...)

We're not even looking at the real logo yet; we have to collect the four of these first and hand them over to an object with googly eyes.

Wonder if it's to avoid confusion with another major UK developer - Rockstar?
But Rare aren't who they were anymore :(

To celebrate, Rare should make Battletoads vs Double Dragon HD, Killer Instinct III... and New Donkey Kong Country, with 4-Player Co-Op and Level Editor.
I dont like it... looks like some sort of medical company.
But good for them I guess, a fresh coat of paint is necessary to start re-inventing urself and Rare sure needs that.

Oh Rare, what happend to you ?
Is this new, dull logo supposed to signify your mostly uninspiring and forgettable games developed during this generation ?

The new logo looks like it belongs to a public broadcaster.
I'm not a fan right now, but maybe I'll get used to it.

Ugh... They should "disband" instead of "rebrand". Rare has to be one of, if not the, worst companies in the business. Maybe second to Midway... blah.
My favorite was and will always will be the Rareware logo, back when they used to make good games for nintendo. Man it makes me so sad to see one of my favorite developers turn to complete crap. I am hoping they announce something cool at E3 this year KI3, Banjoo tooei 2, or Conker live and reloaded as a Xbox live game.
Sorry man but that Conker's remake they made for the Xbox absolutely sucked fucking donkey balls. Half the game was cut to all fucking hell. I dont care what they do, leave Conker the hell alone, tired of these studios remaking great games that turn out to be complete shit compared to the first game.
Hey Rare, instead of changing yor brand, why not you do a decent game and make come back your lost prestige
