Nick Chester Writes:
What was surprising was learning that Microsoft wasn’t bundling this sports game collection with its Kinect hardware, instead opting for Kinect Adventures. As a pack-in, Kinect Sports would have been given a pass if it skimped on modes or features. But as a standalone, it would have to prove itself full-featured enough to justify its price point.
While Kinect Sports packs in a number of interesting mini-game sport experiences, it stumbles trying to support itself under the pressure of offering that standalone value.
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 😒
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.
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?
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.
I don't think it surprises anyone that all the launch games are sh*t except for Dance ...(whatever it's called)
Its surprising that places like gametrailers are saying that sports and adventures fail to work lol and they give it a 6.....
