XBOX buys Rare

**Liquid Gears** · 11-30-2002

I don't know about some of you but XBOX owns the company Rare now. That's awesome, they're the makers of a ton of classic games. Now there's a good chance XBOX will be getting games such as Perfect Dark & Killer Instict!!!! SWEET BABY!!

Hate to tell you this, well actually no I dont. This is really old news.

**Premium Xbox** · 11-30-2002

Wow! Even though it's really old like what Kraft said.

**Cloud Strife** · 11-30-2002

That's very old news. I can't wait to play their Xbox games though.

Wow!

Not as in the whole deal thing...

Or how old it is...

but the whole wow factor here is that you said "XBOX owns Rare."
If you dont know what company is behind the Xbox then I am scared...

**Kraft** · 11-30-2002

Eh. I will be more 'wowed' if MS buys out Sega...

**TheCovenant** · 11-30-2002

**Liquid Gears** · 11-30-2002

**TheCovenant** · 11-30-2002

I'm just hoping Rare doesn't delay any of their games as bad as Star Fox Adventures. But at least they should give the Xbox more quality games.

For a second, i thought the first 3 or 4 pages of posts disappeared and we were back a month or so...

**MerimacHamwich** · 11-30-2002

I could careless if Microsoft bought out sega. I like that they bought out rare though. Rare made all the best games on N64. Hey, Liquid, Perfect Dark is one of two confirmed games for the xbox. Sweet eh?

**XBOX Dude** · 11-30-2002

holly crap liquid were you been? last month maybe? sorry to rag ya but this reaks of oldness

**Liquid Gears** · 12-01-2002

The Rare news was probably brought up when I was in surgery awhile back. Sorry for missing out, pal. You don't have to be such a jack a$$ about it

This is REAL old news. Microsoft bought Rare sometime ago. Nintendo still has the license for it's characters, which means no Donkey Kong or Banjo, but Rare already said that Perfect Dark Zero is coming to Xbox, so it ain't old news.

xboxaddict.com put this info out Sept. 24. More than 2 months ago.

Actaully Microsoft gets Banjo Kazooie. All Nintendo keeps are Star Fox characters and Donkey Kong characters.
