Rare's twitter had something about deadlines but that just might be the daily deadline for making fun of fans. I guess this event is X11 then?Shiggy said:Kinect Sports 2?
That would be awesome. Loved the first one. Give me Halo:CE remastered, Gears 3, Forza 4 and Kinect Sports 2 and Microsoft will be set for the fall. Money will be falling in their laps.Shiggy said:Kinect Sports 2?

Neuromancer said:Excellent, we need some unannounced titles to be unveiled. I'm hoping for non-Kinect games.
Neuromancer said:Excellent, we need some unannounced titles to be unveiled. I'm hoping for some quality Kinect games.
Shiggy said:Yay, who needs creative and original games...
GavinGT said:What are those? All I know are sequels and reboots. Hell, remaking Halo would be a more original move than we're accustomed to.
Shiggy said:True. All MGS has is Fable Productions aka Lionhead, Halo Studios aka 343, Forza Games aka Turn10, UK-based Nintendo-Rehash Productions (might be renamed to Avatar Interactive) as well as a few other Kinect studios.
LQX said:I'm calling it. A different, Forza, Gears of War and Halo game.
Ha... reminds me a little of Sony tooV_Ben said:*laughs*.... then cries slightly.

Onion_Relish said:Most likely this, hoping for a new killer instinct. With the renaissance of fighting games, theres no reason not to shoot it out as an xbox exclusive.

Shiggy said:Don't worry, Rare still has some of the very best artists. Their work is just not used for Rare's titles. Maybe we will see some of their work in other titles of MGS.
Rare couldn't make it, they'd be stuck at picking the font for the design doc.metareferential said:That would be clever.
Besides, they should add a Kinect-mode; maybe first-person.
So you get an exclusive fighter (which the 360 is lacking since launch), you bring back a beloved franchise and deliver on both the casual and hardcore front.
Since it's such a smart move, it's definitely not going to happen.
V_Ben said:Ooh, that's good to know. It's nice to see their artists being put to work on projects that may make better use of their abilities

Might as well, but those studios will be pushing out those franchises for a couple of years.Afrikan said:for what it's worth, Killzone is working on an new IP and so is Sony Santa Monica.
I wonder if Liverpool, with the help of Evolution, will be allowed to finish off The Protector.
healthy for the studio or not, Kinect Sports was great. got great reviews and sold well too. that game had charm. Rare still have a soul despite everything that happened.Shiggy said:Don't that to be misunderstood. It's not as if they had any creative freedom when doing outsourcing work. They just create some assets for others, just as they did for Halo 3.
@GavinGT
Still I don't think it was healthy for the studio as a whole to abandon the Rare's company culture by shifting to an entirely different direction: Focussing on Kinect.

a) Bigbig focus the couple of years has been racing games for the portable, but recently been focused on porting.V_Ben said:Aye, but none of those were created with those sole franchises in mind. And calling BigBig a "port studio" is a severe f*cking disrespect. They made both Pursuit Force games, a PSP Motorstorm, and are currently at work on Little Deviants, a NGP game. Same goes for Cambridge. They're working on what amounts to portable new instalments in franchises, and do a damn good job of it. I could go on, but those studios are kinda homes to those franchises because it was where those franchises were created. MS created 343 to keep Halo going, but Turn 10 created Forza, no?

b) The discussion was about specific studios only working with one IP, Sony has a bunch that are mostly if not all focused on that IP.
