I know there's a topic already on this but i really don't mind Rare going to Microsoft!!!! Banjo Kazooie in my opinion was OK but not a great game, Perfect Dark was brilliant but i doubt very much that it can live up to the expectations of the first one, and they rushed it at the end anyway, why aliens??? Other Rare games were good but not massively missed {ok it is ashame we're not seeing Perfect Dark} My Gamecube is great and has not one Rare game on it, Nintendo making Donkey Kong will bring it back to it's roots and will be fantastic, Go through the list of Gamecube games Import and Pal that you have and name me one Rare Game.

I have:

Animal Crossing
SMB2
Resident Evil
Beach Spikers
Mario Sunshine
SSBM
ISS2

All great games which have came out in a matter of a few months!! I don't Care about Rare!!!!!!! Are Gamecube's will still stay the greatest system... Believe me, I WANT TO KEEP STAR FOX ADVENTURES THOUGH. :D

Did some Rare memebers go to Retro Studios?

They're gone I suppose, but it isn't a great loss. The good half of Rare are gone (Free Radical Design & Retro Studios) and no doubt some will be leaving after the X-Box Only news.

Thanks for all your opinions on this subject. I wouldn't cry about Star Fox Adventures not coming out because it has been said on Planet Cube that it's not worth the wait after all. Also i still hold my opinion on all Rare games being OK i didn't like Banjo, Get Force Gemini or Donkey Kong, Nintendo will make this better. I must admit i'll miss Goldeneye but that was ages ago and i can live without one now, Time splitters 2 is identical anyway. Some of you take into account that people have different opinions while others mock what you like and dislike, it's starting to grate, this forum is about people's ideas and opinions, you have to start changing your attitude towards other people if you want to get far in life and live with people not being like you, no names being mentioned. Oh and by the way i think Tennacious D are great and that's why my tagline is that!!! :)

What was that point made for ? I said my earlier comment because Rare seem to be making the graphics for PD a bit more cartoony than the realistic graphics it had before. I put it down to taking a different route in order to make PD that bit more different to other X-Box FPS games. :-)

And Savatt, Gamecube also has a line of very realistic looking games e.g. Resident Evil and Metroid Prime ;)

I know what you mean, reading the Xbox users saying "we've got Banjo kazooie, Conker and Jet Force Gemini coming out" really annoyed me.

Well with so many X-Box FPS games having realistic graphics, I suppose Perfect Dark Zero taking this route could help to make it a different experience to what other games are offering.

I find it a bit ironic how Rare have turned Perfect Dark into a cartoon..
