Talk about Rareware games here. You know, Donkey Kong Country, Conker, Banjo-Kazooie etc.

I heard a rumor that Rare might make a Donkey Kong Country 4, but only if Nintendo directly asks for it.

Rare is working for Microsoft, you know, which means probably no Donkey Kong Country 4 by Rare for you.

I played Banjo-Kazooie, Banjo-Tooie, Conker's Bad Fur Day ( awesome games! ), Kameo, and Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts ( less awesome ). Rare was really awesome back in their Nintendo days, but when they joined Microsoft, some really great people left, and their games now are still pretty good, but not as good as before... :(
Let's hope they may rise again and bring us some more great games!

Yeah, I know, but they stated that they might make it in an interview. I doubt it will actually happen, but c'mon, that would rule!

I also heard that they were planning to make a Conker sequel called "Conker's Other Bad Day" (name sucks :) ) but after they joined Microsoft they were forced to cancel it. So they released Live & Reloaded in an attempt to fill the void.

Though at the same time, we can't fully blame MicroSoft just because some peoples' leaving was an event that coincided with the buy-out.

I loved Perfect Dark back in the day. PDZ is definitely nowhere near its level of awesomeness. Perfect Dark was the Halo-Killer before Halo was even born. The only thing one could wish for was online multiplayer instead of just local.

I do.

I fully blame Microsoft for it. Rare was making phenomenal games, but dropped to just good at around the time they joined Microsoft. I don't really consider that a coincidence.

Nintendo and Sony are definitely evil, (Nintendo for that cartel thing, Sony for that rootkit thing). But Microft is the most diabolocal corporation ever to exist.

~I don't know about Apple, but Google definitely isn't evil. After all, isn't Google's slogan "Don't be evil"? Or did I dream that?

Google are evil. They dream of world domination.

Apple are even more evil than Microsoft. They have the worst customer service in the history of man.

Well, as someone else said, they don't take advantage of people's unintelligence. However, they are in an extremely good position to do that. Some people have trouble telling the difference between Google and the Internet as a whole!

Care to elaborate?

If you're talking about the Aztec belief that the world will end in 2012, I may be forced to never take you seriously again.

Google once got done for violating privacy rights... they took their users' IP addresses without warrant or something.

That's all? What does this have to do with the ultimatum that Tobbe was on about?
