I am not laughing at Rare, Rare were my third favourite company and my first favourite company kicked 'em out to you guys. Oh no I'm laughing at the fact that Microsoft expect Rare to release 5 games in 2 years....

Trust me it won't happen.

The thing with RARE being really good games makers is because they take their time over games making them more better than if they were rushed for time (eg MS making deadlines already). I know because they spent over 5 years on SFA and look at it it's all a Adventure fan would want, if they are not into Adventure games, tough.

So I doubt MS would get anything good out of RARE unless they give them all the time they want.

Well garbe, if Rare can't make a decent game even when it's been in production for over five years, it looks like Microsoft just wasted their money doesn't it. ;-)

Gamespot? The company that is slated accross the internet for the most inconsistant reviews ever????????? LOL I can't believe you bother to read them. Planet Gamecube gave it a relativly low mark considering as well but why the hell are we arguing over a game they aren't even talking about! We're referring to Starfox the space shooter being made by Namco!

and Yes DMA must make another Body Harvest game.

Yes and that would be because they own a GameCube and a GameCube only? The reason why I value sites like IGN and GameSpot ETC is because the people who play the games also play on the other 3 consoles and they don't post biased reviews about a particular game. No game deserves a perfect 10 but sometimes its nearer to 10 than 9 so people opt for the higher score.

Well if someone wants to call you a fanboy then fine, but I haven't. I just stepped in because you were, yet again, defending the X-Box when it wasn't necessary! Whitestripes was merely making a point to Savatt about GBA games, and you step in and take it as an insult to the X-Box's line up!

Personally, I haven't seen you been called a fanboy, and though you can be a little too defensive at times, you don't deserve it. Anyway, this was just a misunderstanding, so lets leave it at that, eh? :)

I haven't seen IGN's review because the damn page keeps freezing on me, plus I don't really like Gamespot that much,
if you want 9's and 10's for it's review just look at the reviews page on SR.

Maverick don't pretend you are the hero! Defending the GameCube? I was called a fanboy for defending the Xbox yet I suppose because all of them were GameCube owners you won't be called the same! Different rules for different people, thats justice for you :)

Anuibus or whatever you are called, I don't call 8.3 of GameSpot and 9.0 off IGN perfect 10's do you? Also read some players reviews of the American sites, 3 people gave it below 7.0 and that was out of 7 reviews :)

No, that was garbe. I was merely defending the GameCube against any unfair attacks, and I appreciate you didn't want it to turn into a war. I'll give it a rest now anyway, before anything gets out of hand.
