ForestLogic 03/24/18 4:37:34 AM #10:	Modern Rare is pretty pointless but I will say Sea of Thieves sounds like a lot of fun. If I still had Gold Live I'd probably get it, but I can't justify paying $60+ a year for a service I only use a few times a month. Darklit_Minuet posted... If they stayed with Nintendo we could have had more Donkey Kong Country and Banjo Kazooie games I mean, we ended up getting more DKC games from Retro. And yeah I know DKCR wasn't that good but Tropical Freeze is on par with the original trilogy, and IMO surpasses it.' Yeah Banjo Kazooie though, I'll never stop being sad over that.

Stop spouting this "MS killed Rare" bs. MS probably saved Rare's asses. To be fair, Rare didn't want Star Fox Adventures to be Star Fox Adventures. Nintendo forced that on them during the N64 days when it was just Dinosaur Planet. Also FWIW I unironically loved Star Fox Adventures. I wish Rare(Playtonic?) could make either a sequel to it, or better yet just make a Zelda game. --- AKA Level 36 ForestWanderer / ObjectiveLogic #MasterChiefForSmash <cite>ForestLogic posted [p:898393108] in Remember w...
