Microsoft announce the 2 titles from Rare exclusive to the Xbox

Grabbed By The Ghoulies - a fighty game
Conker: Live and Uncut.

Now sit back and await the "rare suc" posts from bitter Nintys. Conker comes to Xbox.

Nintendo aren't kiddies that think they're cool because they have a gun? Nope, it's the adult hoovering ghosts up and the X-Rated Pikmin, or the shocking filth of Super Monkey Ball.

Yup, those Microsoft babies.
Face it, Nintendo make games for kids and really stupid adults.
A bit like Harry Potter books.

More like Rare are used to working on a console that hasn't got a fan base of immature kiddy's who think they're cool because they have games with guns.

Er, but aren't all of those games out or on their way to the 'Cube? Apart from Silent Hill.

Anyway, Grabbed by the Ghoulies looks good, but they've taken the platforming out of Conker, and turned it into an FPS. I sucked at those bits of the N64 game.

Hur Hur.

If the GameCube's dead within 6 Months, the time when most of it's best games are coming out, I will decapitate myself with clothes pegs.

I mean, who cares, console wars are crap. Yeah.

Why do you say that?
GoldenEye wasn't kiddie, despite its appearance Conker certainly wasn't kiddie, and Banjo Kazooie/Tooie, again despite cartoony characters, were fairly difficult games to complete so were probably difficult for younger kids.
