"RARE ON XBOX"
"Now we're not ones to go spreading around rumors, but we've heard one to many whispers from our industry pals to let this nibble pass. It seems that Rare, the storied developer of Donkey Kong Country, GoldenEye, Diddy Kong Racing, Banjo Kazooie, and Perfect Dark is expanding it's operations to create games for the Xbox. Some sources close to the developer even say that Rare has had the Xbox development kits for several months now and is already hard at work. If this is true Xbox owners should be happy because it means that we'll be getting some great new games, and we could be getting them soon. You can forget about any titles that feature Donkey Kong, Star Fox, or other Nintendo characters, but Perfect Dark, Banjo Kazooi, and other Rare-owned franchises could easily make the jump." - oxm magazine page 26... author - i don't know it doesn't say. :)

they also say maybe killer instinct and banjo kazooie might be on the way as well. :cool:

btw - i can't post a pic i have no scanner.

Isn't OXM just repeating the rumor that we've all heard already? I don't think this makes it any more official. It's still a rumor at this point.

sounds real to me. and the pic of joanna dark looks like an xbox game's graphics, kinda like the cover picture of last months oxm with the chick from brute force on the cover.. it looks almost just like it (with smaller tah tahs) but different uniform (like in perfect dark) and has shiny plate armor on her, very cool looking.

u guys are starting rumors... oxm never said that rare is coming to xbox. they said it might, but i doubt it. they also said gta3 was coming to xbox, and look what happened

There is no hide nor hair mentioning of Xbox or PS2 on Rare's site from I can see all they talk about Is GC and GBA for there forthcoming projects.

you beat me to it, i was going to say the same thing. there is a reason that it's called the rumour mole, OXM talked how many times about GTA3, but yet, it ain't coming, at least not until 2004.

On that 5 year contract, when did those 5 years start? They have been making games for Nintendo for more than 5 years, and contracts can be bought out as well. Just like in monopoly, MS lends Rare a couple of million, Rare says "here you go Nintendo, i think this covers what i owe you", MS says "Yaaaaaa!! Rare is on our side!"

it could happen.

i'm not starting any rumors. it says just what i posted on page 26

for the time being, i reckon 5 years and ms/sony will bury rare's commitment, unless nintendo quickly buys rare

And so God created hell!

And along with it he made evryone's favorite "devil", Bill Gates, and so let it be known that he can pay for whatever hell Nintendo might fire up!

LOL, like that one?

as for all the people that don't think it's true go get the new oxm and see for yourself.

I think Rare will come to the Box, and PS2 I would wan't my product on all three consoles,

GTA3 note: I think Sony got Rockstar due to Rockstars Legal trouble , sony May have bailed them out of hot water any way when you think of MS just remember the Movie "pirates of Silicon Valley" .... and then remember that Bill Gates is a 21st Century
Alexander the great, he will conquer the known world ,,, (but won't die a drunk at age 33...since he is like older....yeah well ya know ....*shut up slacker* ..

Shane Satterfield of Gamespot recently confirmed this rumor, too. I can't point you to the quote (it was on TXB, I think), but he said something along the lines of this: He heard from a very reliable source that Rare is going multiplatform. He said that if you knew who he got the information from, you'd have no doubt it was true. He said he expected to hear official confirmation in a few days.

Granted, it's still just a rumor, but having someone like Shane back it up makes it sound pretty credible.

I don't think PD 0 is coming to xbox. They're just speculating the games that may come to xbox... pd 0 just happened to be one of the games. It means nothing. I know theyre a third party developer... but it doesnt mean that pd is coming to xbox any day soon.

rare isn't a first party developer. I remember seeing the news of their official third party move on xba news. Maybe you'll be able to find it in the archives.
