Eh, right now I'd only say between 3-6... Rare just isn't what it used to be.jt4mtb
i think its because they feel pressured by microsoft to make "omgz teh b100d 0n teh tV g0 squ1sh!" games. i think if they were under nintendo's wing, it would be better. (after all, nintendo actually helped them)
Kameo is awesome, and Star Fox Adventures was pretty dang good too.

yeah i know! but i think most people didnt like it because they liked that star fox was nintendo's first shooting game (dogfight wise) and the transition to action/adventure just seemed cliched to them (as for myself, my first star fox game was SF Adventures so it might explain why i liked it as much as i did). funny thing is...no matter what system Rare makes games on...they always seemed to be a perfect nintendo title.
Rare was awesome during the N64 era. But all their good programmers and developers from that time now work for other companies. I can count the number of good games they've made for Microsoft on one hand. Nintendo let them go for a reason.
Maybe for their platformers, but I don't even really think that Goldeneye or Perfect Dark would be that great on the VC. I think one of the main things that made that game work was the N64 controller. It worked so much better for FPS's than any of the current console controllers. Now, if we could get a third party classic controller that was designed after the N64 controller(don't see one coming from Nintendo), had some online multiplayer (not likely) then they would be a nice addition to my VC collection.
I would say around 1-3. Rare is actually NOTHING like their former selves as far as game development goes. The only advantage to having them would be to get back their franchises.
And don't think we'd get Goldeneye just because we have rare, because 007 is owned by MGM, which is owned by Sony at the moment.
Nirvana, and when I say Nirvana I mean it would suck. Rare isn't good anymore. They have been falling since the 64 days and seem to be continuing that trend. And the effort, time, and money for Nintendo to get them back would not be worth it. For all I care Microsoft can keep Rare.
But they would get Banjo Kazooie, Tooie, Conker's Bad Fur Day, Goldeneye, Perfect Dark, Donkey Kong 64, Jet Force Jemini, Blast Corps, Killer Instinct, and Diddy Kong Racing for the VC. That alone is worth the purchace to me.
Like an 8. I would instantly buy Banjo Kazzoie for the VC. I have 1100 points left to do so. But besides that, I would only hope that Rare brings us some great games. The DK series would be renovated and be good again.
Nirvana if we get Conker with online, and Goldeneye online as well. But if we get none of those then at least 3-5 i would be enjoying one of thier great Dk platformers or Banjo games

No, the only game they've made that can be considered bloody is Perfect Dark Zero. They suck, and it was becoming aparrent on the Gamecube era, Star Fox Adventures was great but it didn't have the 'magic'. Right now they're....meh.
