Has anyone here taken a trip down memory lane, blown the dust off your N64 and rammed a seemingly huge cartridge in their ancient console?
I know i have!
Conker,Banjo and zelda are the best games i've ever played, but are all made by RARE!
Now with the release of Conker:Live and Reloaded approaching, the anger at Microsoft stealing Rare is just... Arrgh!
Why!

Rare had to get used to the new hardware etc.
I think come Xbox 2 we'll see some proper heavyweight Rare stuff.
Microsoft said they just wanted a foothold this time round, no doubt there'll be an even bigger push for Xbox 2 and no doubt there'll be some Rare titles shortly after, if not at launch.

Not that i'm bothered how much Microsoft spent. Nintendo were the ones laughing all the way to the bank!

You must be joking! I cannot believe you mean what you have just said!
Kameo has been in the works since 1972 and everything Rare do is postponed. EVERYTHING!
It wouldn't be so bad but Microsoft paid millions for them and what have they had back in the 2 and a half years they've had them? S*d all! Oh apart from GBTG! Yeh great! That must've made them at least £500.

Dringo, I KNOW you'd be drooling over Kameo if it was still set for Cube release! ;-P
So you'd rather they were like EA and released half-finished games because they said it'd be done by a certain date?
COME ON!
COME ON!

This is just another reason Nintendo were wise to get shot of Rare. The postponments were, and are just a joke now!

I can't see Conker: Live and Reloaded, being anything but superb.
I know I'm getting it.
I'm not too keen on the look of Kameo though.

Theres no 'if' about it anymore. As far as I know EA own the rights to make Bond games now so unless they sell those rights it'll be EA on the box, NOT Rare! And I doubt rare would EVER do a re-make even if they could. I think they got sick and tired of Goldeneye in the end as if it was the 'be all and end all' with gamers!
