They said multiple games would be revealed... I would assume one is a kinect game, the other is a PD game (popular shooters), and I am hoping Banjo or Conker make a return but a safe bet is Kameo 2 since the first went platinum.

I mean they have 3 studios. Are the games in developement for the Xbox 360-2?

I mean do not get me wrong, Halo 4 looks killer (though I am more of a Gears of War TPS guy), but I have been waiting for a good 3D platformer since that Banjo teaser came out (Nuts and Bolts was amazing but that was a kick in the face to fans imo to tease a remake or 3rd game).

I miss the early life of the 360 when Microsoft was pumping out quality exclusives all the time (Mass Effect, ToV, Kameo, Doa4, etc.).

Get ready for a Third Person Shooter Conker and a Kinect Killer Instinct.

TPS Conker actually sounds alright (better than nothing for a franchise that had low sales).

As bad as Kinect Killer Instinct sounds... Either of these two are better than nothing at this point.

Conker died with the POS that was Live and Reloaded. And no, no Conker is better than a TPS Conker. Rare should just stick to making new IP's leave the other franchises to other studios. Maybe Double Fine could make a proper Banjo or Conker game.

This is true.

Sorry TC, but Rare doesn't exist anymore.

It's basically a defunct (dead) studio.

Well for me Rare has so many platformers that I would be fine with one transitioning as long as it retained some of its platforming (think ratchet and clank).

Sorry, I don't believe in ghosts. Rare is not coming back from the grave.

I don't see this game being anything other than a kinect game.

I would love to see a Killer instinct though

Both Kameo & BK Nuts & Bolts were amazing. So much colour & personality. Games these days just dont have that magic & adventure that RARE can do. We dont need anymore shooters, we need more RARE

Hope to see something from them in the future but nobody supports anything that isnt cod so there might be no point since they wont make any money, further pushing them into the grave. Ill support RARE as long as their games have nothing to do with Kinect.

Agreed, I liked Viva Pinata and PDZ as well... I feel bad at them for having the huge shadow over their head.

I really wish Microsoft would capitalize on atleast one of Rare's franchises even if Rare does not make the game... (Preferabley not Perfect Dark though as there are plenty of FPS games atm).

I thought that new president they got last year stated that they woud only be focusing on Kinect games. Not that it matters since the team behind their legendary games don't exist anymore.

They are being revealed. All those avatar-based Kinect games are all they work on now. Both their shooter and platformer teams are pretty much gone anyways.

Nintendo ruined Rare imo... The PD team left before Nintendo was considering selling Rare.

Rare when sold to Microsoft still made great games... Kinect Sports was a decent Wii Sports clone ( from what I have heard as I never played it)... Major said though like last year that they would reveal new games at the upcoming show... I waited and nothing happened. I am not calling Major a liar but I think that maybe they are being pushed for the 720 launch...

I really doubt that Microsoft is going to just let all of the IPs they obtained with aquisition of Rare go to waste.

If you are looking for a good 3D platformer from them, then you are looking in the wrong place.

It's in my top 5 favorite games of all time.

I read back in the day that it wasn't release in half of europe, maybe that's why it had low sales?

I totally forgot rare even existed,it's a shame since they were bought out by microsoft that there company totally changed and hasn't delivered 1 aaa title since the microsoft acquisition. Most of my favourite childhood gaming experiances where with rare's title's,such as donkey kong 64 and my most beloved banjo kazooie.

Nintendo didnt sell Rare, Rare's founders sold their majority in the company to Microsoft. Nintendo at that point sold their stake in the company since it was useless to keep it. Rare's founders went on to abandon the company several years later. If anything, that is what ended Rare, along with the other major players leaving shortly after that. Dinosaur planet would have been the same game regardless of whether Starfox characters were in it or not, and it was a damn good game anyways. Nintendo never really mistreated Rare either, they were always pretty free to make whatever they wanted.

I know I've already6 posted but I'ma post again. imo, Rare should dump all their old franchises and give 'em to other comapnies. live and Reloaded,, PD0, and Nuts and Bolts were all Bad imo. However, Rare should focus on Making new Ip's and continuing the one's they've started (Viva Pinata and Kameo were both great imo). Oh and stay away from Kinect.

People talk as if Nintendo once owned Rareware, but was it really a major stockholder that onced owned less than a simple majority of stock in the developer? It was never a first-party developer and before it was sold to Microsoft, it was for many years a second-party developer.
