Microsoft has said that Kinect's "not about moving from the core to the broad", but that doesn't mean the advertising's not aimed at the family market.
Below you'll find the smiley launch trailer for Rare-developed Kinect Sports, which launches alongside the motion cam in the US tomorrow and in the UK next Wednesday.
Craig Duncan reflects on Kinect and the cool things Rare was able to accomplish with the Kinect Sports games.
Kinect Sports was the most successful property that Rare had on an Xbox platforms 😒
But like it or not kinect sports was probably the best game that came out for kinect and sales show that. It may not of been there best ever game but than again the best games made don't always sell that well.
Rare is washed up.. That was a company i thought would give MS some unique exclusives after the buy out.. Unfortunately they became a shell of their former selves.. I have no clue why MS would assign kinect games to a team like that smh
I don't care what anyone says about rare because I'm actually really liking Sot. Yeah it could use some things in future updates but so far it's fun!
A summary of Rare since their Microsoft purchase fifteen years ago, going through each of the games and their performance across the various Xbox platforms.
I played through Grabbed by the Ghoulies via Rare Replay. I found Ghoulies to be descent, solid graphic, music and art, with tedious, repetitive gameplay.
You forgot to mention Donkey Kong Country 1-3 remakes, Banjo-Kazooie: Grunty's Revenge, Sabre Wulf, Banjo-Pilot, It's Mr. Pants, Diddy Kong Racing DS, & Viva Piñata: Pocket Paradise.
Yeah they aren't on Xbox platforms, but it's still worth mentioning all the projects they've produced since the acquisition.
Remember when Rare was a more respected developer in the industry than Naughty Dog?
you gotta thanks Microsoft for that!
When Microsoft bought them in 2002, I knew it wasn't going to end up well.
No im not, but I loved all the classic rare games up till n64. Yooka Laylee filled a lovely hole which hasn't been seen from rare for years. A shame really.
I can agree they haven't been themselves, but they have forever cemented their legacy in gaming. They will most likely never be the same again.
If you got young kids around the house, you don't want to be playing games like COD or DOOM. These are some kid friendly games you could get to keep your kiddo's entertained.
