No more rumors.. the truth about Rare!

Haha! Five games over the next two years? Rare has never met deadlines and I doubt they start doin\' it now, unless MS staffed them up massively and told them they better get use to short development times and meeting deadlines. And if MS did do that - how will that effect Rare games? Everyone knows Rare is use to being to perfect their games and having no set time frame.

/me hums and doesn\'t like the sound of any of the above propaganda.

Here\'s one of the games.

Rare and Microsoft Game Studios will be bringing the next Kameo exclusively to the Xbox video game system.

Those screens are a joke, right? I\'m not sure if I would even claim those screens if I was Rare. Given, they may be early screens , but still, they\'re lookin\' terrible.
At the same time  - it looks like a typical Rare game. Cute characters and probably item fetch quest. Good or bad, depending on how well you like Rare\'s formula.

Here\'s some Perfect Dark info:

According to Microsoft, Rare has five Xbox titles underway that will debut exclusively on the platform over the course of the next two years. The titles include a newly revamped Perfect Dark offering starring a transformed version of the heroine agent (who we will henceforth refer to as Jo-anime Dark). The cartoonish redesign of Dark is much improved over the stiff, possibly lesbian former model, we\'re happy to report.

Jo"Anime" Dark? GIVE ME A BREAK.

They\'ve lost their minds....

Jo"Anime" Dark was merely how IGN were referring to them in the article.  That\'s not actually gonna be her new name or anything if that\'s what you guys are pissed off about

But I don\'t like the fact that they\'ve \'sexied\' her up.  Bah... annoying.

[Living-In-Clip]

The name isn\'t what I was complaining about. It is the anime style that does not fit her, that bothers me.
Like I said, Rare has lost their minds if this is what they have in store for Perfect Dark Zero.

This is great news for MS its good to see MS first party get even stronger.

WTF is wrong with that tiger?  Looks like he\'s been through the dryer one too many times.

And Jo"Anime" Dark is a desperate attempt to try to get some Japanese marketshare, IMO...

Joanna Dark looks so cute now.

definately not what m$ needs to sell a few more systems on japan

Yeah, Rare was never that big in Japan anyways.
