The same interview says 'We have no need for old Ips' so, good luck on that one.

rare is a shadow of what they were under nintendo control , now they seems to have lost their touch ... i'm not waiting for anything from them now .

@Bereaver

RARE was Great in those Nintedo Days when the Guys from [FREE RADICAL] were part of the Dev Team, now I really don't know, but at least they try, is up to x360 owners by buying their games..

Edit:

Double Post [?]

Unfortunately, they probably will. They probably will.

From the guys who murdered Rareware and Banjo-Kazooie....

I shouldnt raise my expectations , but if your going to disagree , then please post the staff roster of the current Rare company .

It is just a plain and simple fact that the key member are gone to other pastures.

The new blood being as talented or not , is however debatable .

Yeah, the 'awesome' that left Rare for free radical went on to make Haze then went into administration and have been bought by crytek.

Yeah, they were fkn awesome.

*caveat - Timeplitters was fun.

they still did did much better games like well timesplitters . One haze wouldnt erase that .

In comparison what has done Rare so far and lately without them ? Who even remember Kameo ?

Are you guys seriously asking for a Killer Instinct natal game? LMAO.

Please no KI for natal they already raped poor banjo just leave KI be.

Yea I'm sure they said something like this when the 360 launched and look at them now. Rare is a joke these days, just like Square-Enix. They are an insult to the Rare/Square-Enix of the past. The only thing that can save their reputation now is if they make an awesome Killer Instincts 3 game (BUT NOT FOR NATAL)! *prays*

If there is one developer that M$ can rely on to make good use of Natal, that would be Rare. They have that casual niche like Nintendo. I look forward more to what they have to show than Lion Head.

Reading that article was very re-assuring to me. Rare is very confident that Natal will deliver in a convincing manner. Notice they didn't mention "Move" or the Wiimote. These guys are focused on what Natal can do and how best to implement this. I can wait for E3 to see what they will show.

For a sec I thought these guys were the devs of ALan Wake, (but they are Remedy right? >.< )

Alan wake + Natal might be an interesting experience.

But E3 will tell all. This E3 will either make or break Natal (For me.. most people already hate it or love it by now)

but I would actually like to see a grabbed by the ghoulies 2 where you actually "grab the ghoulies".

Just a thought.

The New Xbox experience proved that even when we were skeptical RARE hit it out of the ball park..

THIS is what RARE was made for. Let the Free boys make Haze 2 or try to bring back Timesplitters..

But, if RARE and Microsoft pull off THE compelling post waggle experience that funally moves the generation forward VIA NATAL they will be nothing short of developer of the year.

the confidence in the interview is evident..This is definately one of those 'actions speak louder than words' kind of moments

Simple..RARE develops a brilliant pack-in with every Natal that will be inserted into every newly designed or SKU'd 360 and the WII will not be the only system selling out of the stores in mass numbers this holiday.

Safe to say..alot is riding on RARE right now..will that oft-maligned M$ purchase finally pay off in spades?

Time will tell

Evil

Oh, yeah, good ol' NXE.....making my old themes worthless and putting advertisement everywhere.

'Oh, yeah, good ol' NXE.....making my old themes worthless and putting advertisement everywhere.'

LOL @ 360 haters trying to pretend that they are so disgusted with NXE because of advertisements?

NXE blew away the old system and Im could care less that my abundance of ancient themes arent still in use..because what was gained in features from the old blade system easily outweighed anything that was lost..

@1.11

You remembered Kameo, so doesn't that make a point? I hope they make a sequel for it - as dated as the game is now it was fun.

And yes, One Haze *did* erase that - by putting the company into administration.

From what I understand their projects weren't canceled they were just put on hold most likely for Natal's release.

Rare has a short clip of a reloading animation from Perfect Dark 2 floating around the web somewhere. If Perfect Dark sells well on xbla (which I'm sure it will) I'm sure they'll pick PD2 back up and finish it.
