" ... and news on what Rare - the makers of Perfect Dark - have planned for Sony's console ... "

And the PS2 isn't exactly the easiest console to develop for either....

It's hardly concrete evidence, is it?

Also, if Rare were looking to go muliformat, they would have been looking to employ people with PS2 development experience, and I've seen nothing to suggest that anywhere yet.

It might happen in the future, but PS2 owners shouldn't hold their breath, Rare are hardly the speediest developers out there!

I too saw this I think that it is a typo and they wanted to say nintendo. It would make much more sense. Rare is a seccond party developer so it would create quite a fuss if this happened and I think we would all know from nintendo by now. That is just my view.

What about Crash Bandicoot, Spyro the Dragon, all those Disney platformer games?

I think Rare's platformer games would fit right in, and then receive FAAARRR better review marks than any other platform game on the PS, because all of Rare's are faaaarr superior!

I still don't think it would work, unless Rare are gunna start making Perfect Dark-type games ONLY for the other 2 consoles.
Games like Conker and Banjo Kazooie would stil be seen as 'too kiddy' for all Sony's and MS fans, and they'd only really appreciate the likes of Perfect Dark and the 007 games.

That's another thing, if they do go multiformat, then they may for one reason or another have a better chance of getting the full Bond license from EA/Eurocom due to their impressive works of the likes of GoldenEye on the PS2 and X-box.

So it could be good, but as a big Ninty and now Rare fan, I still feel that it's just not right. :(

Doesn't matter mate!

I should have given the topic a more of a telling you what it's about title, but I thought I'd be different for a change!
