"Microsoft buy Rare?"

Thought you guys would be intrested in this if you haven't already see it

Please not that none of this article has been confirmed yet, and it's all just rumour.

Activision didn't have enough money, but Bill 'Richie Rich' Gates's company was willing to knock down 350 million for them. This is about 500 million Euro/dollar.

Microsoft is said to have held a meeting recently with Rare in a hotel near Twycross, the developer's base. A deal was made, and Microsoft will make make a big announcement at their X02 event in Seville later this month, where the company will showcase new exclusive Xbox titles.

The rumour continues. Perfect Dar Zero will be developed exclusively for Xbox. That would also be the reason why we haven't heard from it anymore since last year's E3.

Hmmmmm is this true, you guess is as good as mine.

it was fun, p!sses me off whitestripes didn't get banned, must be a special rule for ninty fan boys only hey.

Listen Dude, The Gamecube is just as equally brilliant as the Xbox, both consoles having the most original and most innotiative titles around.

I don't see how you can compare Wave Race: Blue storm to Halo though....

YAY someone gets it. how many ninty's have i seen compare Mario sunshine to Halo?

that's like comparing my car to a bike.

or comparing socks to pants hmmmmm think i'm losing it so i'll go while you kinda get the idea.

I wasn't comparing genres thoguh was I? I was comparing enjoyment, I get more enjoyment (and have more fun) from playing Waverace than I do Halo. Once again, thats why I didn't buy an X-box and Halo. Read, and don't bother replying if you don't understand.
