Why are Rare fans so retarded?
I'm sorry.
Rare wasted years as microsoft's kinect lackeys, I bet the studio could still whip up decent games but they hardly ever get the chance. Not that it matters anymore since we have Playtonic rising from the ashes.

Nintendo saw the writing on the wall given their Gamecube output. Think about it, they could have just straight up bought them like MS did.
Its just too bad they haven't found their new Rare to interest the western audience and cover their ass when 1st parties are delayed. I know people like to say Retro is the replacement, but Rare released 12 games during the N64 era.
Thats crazy.
Rare released two interesting games under M$, both being viva piñata.
Nothing else is noteworthy. Rare's talent has been wasted.
>>339503469
do you have any proof or verification that anyone actually said that
>>339504109
What gamecube output? We all knew that Rare was going to finish their business with nintendo after starfox adventures, the buyout already happened by then.
>Viva Pinata TiP will never come to PC
why live
SEA OF THIEVES WILL FIX
EVERYTHING
Nintendo knew what was up and let them go at the right time. Microsoft only made Rare's decline more obvious.

>one good game in 15 years
uhh
>>339503469
Look at how many quality titles they had on the N64 alone.
Now compare these to their titles on Xbox, 360 and Xbone.

>Rare was destroyed by Microsoft!
This bothers me more than anything because it's been made so damn apparent in the past that Rare's downfall was via their own choice. Microsoft had little to no influence on something like N&B
>>339504126
That's not Microsoft's fault
How many interesting games did they release on the Gamecube and GBA? It's Mr. Pants and Grunty's Revenge (which was done by THQ)?

but that's wrong you fucking retard
OP is an uneducated loudmouthed faggot as usual

>>339503469
Both VP were the only games I managed to get the 1000G.
most of the original rare members left after perfect dark. which is probably why nintendo didnt want to buy them out.

>Microsoft had little to no influence on something like N&B
They literally cancelled Banjo Threeie when it was halfway done and told them to make something different
>Viva Pinata
Oh hey, on that note, it's almost time to save the Viva Pinata Princess.

Get your asses in here if you like low quality waifus and wild shit happening.And maybe porn.
>>339503469
You are retarded, if you think that game redeems literally everything Rare made after the selling.
>>339503469
Good game, but not a redemption.
Rare was always pretty mediocre, they just made fun games, peaking at Conker.
Irrelevant who owns them, they suck now and never listen to their fans, having basically been turned into a "new-age tech" testing group.
>>339507481
Um...no they didn't?
S-S-STOP IT!
this was probably the only good game rare made during 6th gen
