Thats actually all from reliable sources.

Rare also have nobody from the original teams of these games.

Its like having a football without its old amazing players. Keeping the same very good name they are expected to produce excellent games. Now though it'll end up wrong.

Something funny went on with Conker. I looked at my copy and it has the THQ logo. So it looks like Nintendo licenced Conker but THQ put up the cash to published it.

Rare are the nearest MS will get to Nintendo gameplay quality. I'd love to see Rare try a Mech game. I still think PD will be the mutts nutts.

We shall have to wait and see....

I go where the PD goes...

If I could gamble all my other games to get the next Perfect Dark now, I would.

Far from that.

Infact, Rare are still riding on the success of Goldeneye and Conker. These were games that are over four years old. Remember that Conker was complete for the N64 in 1998, (called back then Twelve Tales). It was merely altered by a new team and delayed until they included all the funny bits.

Tis true. The new Rare then spent years on Starfox. Which was worse than crap.

Rare have their hearts in the right place. The have bad blood with Nintendo now. I think Nintendo pressured them on release dates etc towards the end of the N64. Rare are perfectionists. They are where they want to be and they shall produce the goods.

TGM, you forgot about Acclaim. Their bad patch lasted up until the N64 was released. The N64 really sorted Acclaim out. No wonder they love Ninty so much!
