There's this post I saw on YouTube by a guy named jordin mccoy (That's how he spelled it), and here's something interesting he said:

"I have a theory of why Rare is making bad games for Microsoft: they want to get fired, so they can go back to Nintendo, and make Banjo-Threeie, Conker's Next Bad Fur Day, and, yes, Tiptup Nuts and Bolts."

That seems like a likely theory to me, what about to you guys? Do you think Rare is trying to get themselves fired from Microsoft so they can come back to Nintendo?

I don't know how much you know about Rare

You understand that they're the most profitable that they've ever been in the company's history right?

Why would Microsoft get rid of something that was making them money?

[/QUOTE]

Because Rare has been making nothing but Wii Sports clones. It's like they're at least TRYING to make bad games (they succeeded with Banjo Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts).

You obviously never had a job, huh?

If they'd do that noone would want to work with them in the future anymore because it wouldn't be a good reference for future money-givers.

Also, gaming industry isn't like slavery. If they wouldn't want to work with them anymore, they'd just say bye bye.

Also, why on earth should the fact MS doesn't want to work with them anymore automatically employ them to Nintendo? Mind to explain?

Aaand....what would keep them off of doing so? You can have an exclusive right for a game or maybe a series, but nobody has the exclusive right to a whole company, except they've buyed them, which isn't the case as far as I know.

It's because of how the public views Microsoft and it's decisions made with Rare.

Besides, Nintendo is able to take companies who have screwed up and get them back on their feet. After all they allowed Sega to work on an F-Zero game and F-Zero GX was a masterpiece. Who's to say Nintendo couldn't fix Rare after Rare butchered Banjo Kazooie.

[QUOTE="Black_Knight_00"]Sure, Satoru Iwata and Reggie would DEFINITELY greenlight another Conker rofl :lol:[/QUOTE]

My point stands. Rare hasn't made a good game in over 5 years.

M$ hasn't allowed them to do so. They have been told to make Kinect titles, that's what they're doing.

Just as I said, they haven't made a GOOD game in over 5 years. Microsoft has been throwing away so many missed opportunities with Rare that it's gotten hopeless.

[/QUOTE] That's because most of the original talent has left. By now only the Rare logo remains. That's why they get stuck with making sh*t kinect games.

It's the people who make a great studio, not the name.

Might as well change their name from Rare to Repulsive.
