In this review, Luke from All Age Gaming looks at how Rare's old Nintendo 64 game fares in the Xbox Live Arcade library. Was it faithful to the great gameplay the Nintendo 64 version had, or did it convert to the XBLA badly?
Microsoft has added touch control support for several Xbox Game Pass titles for Android including (among others) Call of the Sea and Genesis Noir.
Tocuh controls are usually iffy at best. I haven't tried them in while. I might give them a whirl.
What will happen when 8 dedicated speedrunners take on one of the most grueling speedruns of all time? Only one way to find out! The Rareware 301% takes place this weekend, and it is bound to be a great showing. Check out Peteredea's intro for the event and learn how you can participate.
Banjo-Tooie might be the perfect example of why bigger and longer might not always mean that the game will turn out to be better.
Haha these games were charming. I'm glad rare has their head above water again with sea of theives.
Normal like everything else xbox touches.. Killer instinct is forgotten, I don't know why cause I think x1 really had cool games at launch
Banjo-Tooie was as big and expansive as it was due to internal competition at Rare. The Banjo-Tooie and Donkey Kong 64 teams wanted to see who could make the bigger, more content rich game.
Donkey Kong 64 was definitely a top tier N64 game. I think I played Banjo Tooie once and never again. But I also wasn't able to finish Banjo Kazooie until after it was re released on Xbox 360.
Oddly enough I played the kazooie, Tooie and DK 64 when visiting other people. I never played through and beat Banjo-kazooie and Banjo-Tooie until the release of Rare Replay! I prefer Kazooie over Tooie. I found Tooie to be occasionally frustrating.
