I'm suprised they haven't renamed her to SHARAAAAAAAN Dark.

You guys should be glad Nintendo sold Rare....

You're not looking very hard then. Are your eyes broken by any chance?

It's good to know someone else has heard of him :) I do a Limewire search every so often to see if any of his stuff comes up. He's worked on all three Splitters games and Second Sight, plus Perfect Dark, Jet Force Gemini, Blast Corps, Goldeneye, Donkey Kong Land and Killer Instinct.

And if you need any more convincing he's a top banana, just remember the Anaconda mini-game music from TSP2 :)

He does some amazing pieces of music. Like the Wild West one in TS2.

To confirm, it was David Doak, Steve Ellis, Karl Hilton, Graeme Norgate, Lee Ray who left for FRD. Graeme Norgate by the way is the person who composed all the atmospheric TimeSplitters/Second Sight music if you're wondering.

A couple of points. I don't think anyone was saying the game will be naff, if they were they're jumping the gun. Most were just agreeing the screenshots are looking dissapointing, which they are for what is supposedly a Next-Gen game. Secondly, do you have a source for gathering that most of the same team remain? While yes, it's unrealistic to say that they've all left specifically for FRD, many have moved onto other companies or left since.

Most of the new Xbox's release date line-up is available on other consoles, from the looks of it.

Sniper says the same thing in every single topic about Rare these days.

It's like some kind of automatic defence very similiar to sticking your hands over your ears and shouting "LALALALALALALA" to drown out things you don't want to hear..

For sods sake! Free Radical have like 3 people from he Goldeneye team. One of them is the lead designer, David Doak, yes, but that is all.

Just because the same team is not working on the game (although from what I gather it is most of the same team from the original Perfect Dark) does not mean the game will be naff.

Because it's not made by the people who developed Goldeneye the main batch of them left for Free Radical or elsewhere.
