Rare Replay |OT| Jetpacks and Googly Eyes, Here We Come
- Thread starter dancrane212
- Start date
My digital preload of Viva Pinata (which fully downloaded days ago) just started updating about five minutes ago. I thought that meant they possibly unlocked Rare Replay a bit early, but no such luck.
Fifteen minutes remain! I changed my XBone color scheme to the blue from Rare's logo in celebration.
Conker marathon here I come.

Bought at the last minute. Interesting how the only games I have on my xbox one are remasters and/or remakes (halo and this). Will probably get gears too.
Now to watch how fast or slow the downloads will go T_T

Banjo-Kazooie is arguably just as good as Super Mario 64 - just in different ways. Obviously B-K wouldn't have been possible without SM64 laying the groundwork first, so there's that, but B-K has been one of my top ten favorite games ever for many, many years. I maintain that the three Banjo games in this collection are worth the price of admission alone (with the original being the undisputed best of the trilogy).
Jump on it, son
Not possible to get is what I've read on here.

Go go go its up
I've been trying to remember the name of this game for years. Had no idea Rare made it. Every time I see Spelunky I think of this game for some reason.
Now that's interesting. If they fixed the framerate that'd be reason enough for me to get this...
welp
Nope. Sorry, buddy. It's not called Rare Play For the First Time.

Oh my goodness. That musical intro. I'm already in love with this collection.
It plays real weird while games are downloading. The individual menus for the games in the hub interface have super gnarly sound distortion until everything is downloaded as well.

Was so hard to choose one to start with. Totally settled on Conker. lol
Thought I'd downloaded everything already, guess not. Thanks. Noticed Banjo needed a 544MB update as well; not sure about other 360 games at the moment.
Edit: The "update" is just option of you installing 360 games.

And just like that Xbone went to being my perfect kids console: downloading now! Seriously debating whether or not to get Disney Infinity on this or PS4 now...
it should have release day delivery. I ordered it on Sunday (8/2) and it just shipped for me a few hours ago with guaranteed delivery tomorrow (day one)evening. also, a fucking $1 a game. so worth it!!!

Pro am 2 has some good ideas but the ai is an absolute pain in the ass. It's very difficult to win races at all.
I sold my copy recently. Maybe it'll be easier to play here.

My copy arrives tomorrow from Amazon. I don't own an Xbox One.
What have I done?

So playing Conker and yea they need some settings for these games. The stick sensitivity is a bit too high on it. If you push it all the way you can't control him too well. Also not digging the horizontal stick inversion. Right and left being reversed is screwing with my head.

Damn, alright then! Will get to that first.

So I'm playing Conker and so far, it runs like an n64 game. Some random hitches here and there but I'm pretty used to it. I just don't know how others would respond to it because its definitely not smooth all the time.
I haven't played the original version so I have no idea if it runs better or not but at least it looks really clean I guess.

I've never played Battletoads before, but this game is awesome!
This was what I was gonna do, was gonna buy a copy just to show my support.
Then I bought an Xbox One last week. lol

I want to anvil smash-punch the creator of the Jet Pacifist snapshot. (Love the package so far!)
Serious?
That's a great reason to get it then. You get to play games you have never played.
Thinking about getting this tomorrow. Can you get this and not download the 360 games? Or only download the ones you want? I have no need for PDZ or Kameo, but I wouldn't mind having Viva Pinata and BK Nuts and Bolts.
Also, are the pre-360 3D games running at 1080p 60fps, or are they just regular straight emulation?
He probably means do the old games still hold up if nostalgia plays no factor in them?

Anyone else having issues with Banjo Tooie? It says it needs an update then it just says there was a problem with the update.
*edit*
Hmm a reboot fixed it. now it isn't needing an update. hmm

They are running of BC so yeah, straight emulation. The 360 games are separate installs so you can install the ones you want
Straight emulation (I believe they are higher-res though), except for Grabbed by the Ghoulies. Since there's no Xbox emulation that one got a special 1080p60fps port treatment.

So I've never played Battletoads before. I got to the hellish speederbike part (how do people beat this normally?). Somehow, I got a "Mega Skip" and skipped two levels. How did I do that?

Hey guys, has anyone pre-orderd using Amazon UK?
You touched a warp, that's how!!!
Also I never use warps when I play the game!!!

I didn't even mean to. I was just trying to get past that speeder part. It's so tough.
Yeah Conker chugs here and it's hard to say for sure if it's worse than it was on 64. 64 games in general often had shitty framerates and so I was pretty desensitized to it at the time but even back then it stood out as pretty choppy which made sense considering it's release at the end of that generation .
Curious to hear something definitive about if they if they were at least able to maintain parity with a game that perhaps pushed the system a bit further than it should have but should either be faithfully replicated or 30fps at least.
It will be interesting to hear how modern gamers not used to the common high-teen framerate of many 64 games will feel and if they can adapt.
Yeah it took me over 50 tries to master it.

Battletoads is so damn hard. It's good though. I think it holds up well after playing it for the first time. Just finished the elevator level. I don't think I could ever beat this game without rewinds.
