Microsoft expect Rare to have made 5 games in the next 2 years with the first appearing in Spring next year.

So not only do they have to convert current games onto the new platform they need to be made in the next 2 years....

HA HA HA HA HA either Microsoft are stupid or they are rushing Rare.

Killer Instinct and that Mickey Mouse racing game as well, but still Microsoft are havin a laugh if they want 5 top class Rare efforts, thing that makes rare games so good is when they eventually come out they're so finely tuned and ful of little details, i'll be intrested to see how good the future gamnes are.

Also they haven't got Nintendo helping them out anymore and I can't see Bill Gates and his brown fingers being much use.

By my count Rare made...9 games in...six years for the N64

Blast Corps
Goldeneye
Perfect Dark
Banjo
Banjo-Tooie
DKR
DK64 (pants)
Jet Force Jemini (v. average)
CBFD

They expect 5 in two years?

They started Dinosaur Planet for the N64, and thats only just coming out!
