Really is rather good. It's got loads of footage of new gams, and a groovy into sequence. But there are 3 problems...
1) Where..are...the...demos??
2) The narrator is obviously just reading from script, and has no idea about games (lame example I know, but he said N - E - S (seperate letters) instead of just NES.
3) Whats with the exploding disk??
Everything else was good however. Play it on a surround sound TV, it sounds great. Really :D

My description was a little off, but with two pages of letters it wasn't that far off. Anyway, p104, letter titled "We're all doomed"
has the magic line.
Useless ? Come back and say that on Perfect Dark 0's release date, and Kameo's and the other four games Rare will produce over the next two years for the Xbox.

I don't useless is the right term but they're certainly not the company they used to be, starfox Adventures reviews speak for themselves. That game took them around 3 years to make which is a bit worrying.

I see it. And I still agree there's an upside to it all.

Perfect Dark 0? With that new look, the Goldeneye team gone and the original not shaping up to expectations things are looking very bleak for that FPS. I'll stick with my Timesplitters 2, Die Hard: Vendetta and Metroid Prime, thank-you very much.
And as for Kameo, Pokemon on the GameCube will easily beat it (providing rumours are true). Plus, four games in two years? Sounds like Microsoft are rushing Rare into a frantic frenzy of games - EA style.
Sorry, but Rare are no use to Nintendo, and if they got $230,000,000 for that, I'm not arguing.
