Kameo: Elements of Power arrived as an Xbox 360 launch title. It didn't reinvent the wheel, but deserves more respect than you might think.
There was a sequel in the works but got canceled because of the Kinect......
I doubt we'll see a follow up.
Wasn't a fan.
I give it another try every few years, but it always falls flat for me.
I remember following this game when it was a N64/GCN game. By the time it came out I didn't even care anymore. It spanned 4 consoles by the time it finally released. It was ridiculous. lol

I think the real issue is that the minds that made those games special are nowhere around. When it’s a series that gets new versions regularly like a COD, Forza, Gears, or Halo you can’t really feel the effects so much of teams changing although I’m sure they do, and all the time. Part of that original vision can live on through some of those team members that remain. In these LONG dormant games they have a far greater chance of ruining the memory of these games and the feel they have us than recapturing it. I think that’s also why Rare hasn’t had a hit since they left Nintendo. Rare should be left to their own vices to make a find a identity and make a new IP. ONLY time I saw a whole new team knock it out the park is the new God of War. Corey killed that.
Interesting list, I never heard of the gameboy game they had talked about. But I would still like new IPs this gen.
What are some of the greatest hidden games? Some titles are so unexpectedly good or obscure, gamers may have missed out!
I remember when they showed off some of the original footage when this was being developed for the GameCube... before Rare went to Microsoft and then delayed for development and launch on the 360. You had to catch the beasts, looked great. Enjoyed it very much when it launched.
