Microsoft won't allow them in the game whatsoever. If they were in at all, I'm sure they would be playable, and not just an AT. They're waay too good for that. I don't see why Microsoft won't allow it, It would be excellent advertising to hype up the new Banjo-Kazooie game for 360.
Yeah, and yet MGS4 is being advertised on Brawl with their "Love theme."
......he looks like Hitler.Mr. Pants
Yeah. Move over, Mr. Game & Watch.
Rare didn't do anything, Nintendo sold them, they had to leave. It wasn't their choice to leave.
You mean Rare and Miyamoto, he always disliked their work from Donkey Kong Country onwards, he did nothing but critisize, sure he often "apologised" but I still dislike that man, he's the reason people disliked DKC and were glad to see Rare leave.
Also get Viva Pinata, it's proof that Rare has returned to their former glory.
As long as Shigeru Miyamoto is alive that will never EVER happen.
JINJO!
Rare is second party for Microsoft.
It's been in decline since DKC3 though, slipping a bit further with DK64. However the games were still at least fun, unlike the travesties that would follow after RARE passed on the mantle... Kinda funny how Nintendo's done a worse job at handling one of it's own series...
DK64 was originally intended to be like the DKC series having the partners and everything but because those mechanics didn't quite work they decided to make it similar to Banjo Kazooie but also keep many DKC elements.
) and Goldeneye being one of the few FPS games I enjoy. Even on the gamecube Starfox Adventures was fun, not as a starfox game but as a platformer. Donkey Kong Racing also looked really good.I was referring to the Rare's handle of the DK series, not their entire career as a Nintendo second-party, numb nuts... Of course I am very aware of their N64 glory days. Blast Corps, James Bond: Golden Eye, and Jet Force Gemini are some of my all-time favorite games. Even their last Nintendo project Star Fox Adventures, despite it's flaws, was still a highly enjoyable experience IMO. There's no denying that Rare still has a hell of a lot of talent at their disposal, but they aren't perfect as Grabbed by the Goulies made us painfully aware...DK64 was originally intended to be like the DKC series having the partners and everything but because those mechanics didn't quite work they decided to make it similar to Banjo Kazooie but also keep many DKC elements.
Also Rare's games were still fantastic around that era look at all their N64 games, genious. Diddy Kong Racing is my second favourite racing game of all time (my favourite being MK64 gotta love that Moo Moo Farm
During their XBOX years they did slip a bit with Grabbed by the Ghoulies (fun but not a great XBOX game) and I didn't really like Conker Live and Reloaded as much as BFD. But with the 360 and VP they have made a huge improvement and they are back to the high calibour games that we all know and love from Rare, so I can at least be sure that BK3 will be great.
They weren't slipping with DK at all, DK64 as I explained before was supposed to be more like the originals but the mechanics didn't all pan out and were hard to work with so they made it similar to Banjo Kazooie because the formula worked, and well DK64 allthough not as good as the DKC triligy was MUCH better than ANYTHING that Nintendo has done with the DK series. Plus did you see the trailer for Donkey Kong Racing, that game looked phenominal, also they had two other DK games in the works Cocnut Crackers (now known as It's Mr Pants) and Donkey Kong Pilot (now known as Banjo Pilot). Those two are pretty shabby games but still Rare is a more console company.
I'm not disagreeing with you, and I actually like DK64 - it's just not as good as I had originally hoped. And I do believe that I said something along the lines of Nintendo being unable to properly handle the series since they've returned to developing for it, despite it being one of their own properties - which I think would indicate that I preferred Rare's take on the franchise. Yeah Donkey Konga was pretty fun, but Jungle Beat looked like a complete joke - I never conjured up the will to play that one...
Good times indeed...It was as important to me as Smash is now.
Fulgore would be my main, I can tell you that now lol. I miss my N64Ever since the first SSB game, I always thought that Fulgore was missing. He really deserved to be in the game as he was KI's poser boy. If not, then Orchid.
Fulgore would have shredded Sonic.
I'm going to my friends house later today to play Goldeneye, Diddy Kong Racing and KI.We'll never get them back with that attitude. We can do it! We have to believe!
