Rare doesn't really exist anymore. It's just a name and the major people that were involved when it was in its prime have moved on.

Thing is, from a business standpoint, rare basically was a cash cow with those kinect games even tho I never played a single one of them.

Been saying Nintendo was smart to sell them off. Without Miyamoto's hand guiding them they weren't shyt and look at how true it was once they went to Microsoft.

Meanwhile Retro Studios stays putting out hits.

It they announce Jet Force Gemini 2 or a remake I'd buy the Xbox One now instead of waiting till next year.

Phil spencer has been making all the right moves. Hopefully he pushes Rare into some new greatness.
