Resident Evil 4 is no longer exclusive to the Nintendo Gamecube and the game is now due for release on the Playstation 2.

Mr. Pants is a puzzle game.

We have the best of RARE still to come. Ports of their older games on the DS.

Go on RARE's GBA team. you know you want to.

whats my pants about anyway?

GBA doesnt push rare at all. rares games are packed to the brim with gameplay and always have cutting edge graphics. look at the lengths of games like goldeneye and PD compared to others released on cartridges. no wonder it took them so long to develop. GBA just wont show the games off. the near future for rare does look bleak but i have faith that they will release a smash within the next couple of years on the xbox just to show how good they are. maybe the nex games wont be as good as previous rare games since they have lost ninty trademark characters like DK and fox but im sure they games will still be excellant for waht they are... especially conker. i will probably get the games on the gba anyway if they get decent reviews

But how many of those GBA games are 'Rare' quality.

DK ports - poor

Banjo - disappointing

Sabre Wulf - fairly good

And can Its Mr. Pants and Banjo Pilot save Rare? Well, I wouldn't bet on it.

They had Rare for Starfox and look what a classic that was.

Yes, it was rushed. But Nintendo still have Rare for their good GBA games. Which is the only thing they're good for these days.

The DK ports don't count. Other than them, Banjo and SabreWulf are great. It's Mr. Pants doesn't look bad either, probably pick it up some time.

Billy Hatcher was better than Grabbed, but both were complete and utter crap.

At least we know it won't even look half as good on the crappy old PS.2 as it will on the small-on-the-outside GameCube, eh!

Take a look at TimeSplitters 2, and then, look at the current footage we have available of installment No.3...

The GameCube's power, along with hungry developers, is providing us with some quite astounding stuff - and I haven't even mentioned the new Zelda! :)

Hah. I bet they thought Wave Race: Blue Storm 'looked good'....

:D

well it topped the ninty charts for a little while

Well I enjoyed it.

I guess it's a platformer thing. I tend to enjoy all platformers.

I've never played Hatcher, but Goulies is truly woeful.

*slaps Rare*
