    Question Something I found on YouTube



    Did Banjo and Conker (or any of these characters) ever make it onto the Xbox? (even as a cameo/bonus in another game by RARE on Xbox) or was this commercial just clearly stating that RARE was making games for the Xbox and not Nintendo's GameCube? (thou RARE started making Donkey Kong Racing for GameCube which was never released)

    List of games I know RARE have made for the Xbox 360: (as none for the original Xbox of which I currently know of)

    Jetpac Refuelled - Xbox 360 (Live Arcade)
    Kameo: Elements of Power - Xbox 360
    Perfect Dark Zero - Xbox 360
    Viva PiƱata - Xbox 360

    ---

    But no Banjo or Conker game? (and the other 2 characters) Have they been left in the past?

    Conkers Bad Fur Day was ported over to the original xbox (I'm pretty sure by rare) with greatly enhanced graphics (it looks great), voices (actually done really well I thought) and multiplayer. I think the single player was slightly different (a few bits cut out) also.

    It was called Conker: Live and Reloaded, I really enjoyed it. Never played the original.

    Microsoft bought rare in 2002 and the main guys left around the same time.

    In 2002, RARE was sold to Microsoft.

    There was a Conker game on Microsoft consoles, Conker: Live & Reloaded released in 2005 for Xbox. And they are working on Banjo-Kazooie 3 for Xbox 360, which will be released in 2008.

    I found an image of the Conker case, and wow haven't they stolen the SEGA font for the word LIVE?

    Banjo Kazooie 3 should be a good game, RARE should have never sold to Microsoft.

    I loved live and reloded it was a perfect port to me and it couldn't of been any better. Rare makes some of the best games around and even if they're now working for Microsoft it doesn't matter as long as I still get the good games.

    RARE would be even better if they re-made Goldeneye, cause that was an awesome game

    It would, playing multiplayer on the N64 with split-screen sucked...

    ...But playing fullscreen multiplayer online would be the coolest, hopefully they still have the Goldeneye license.

    iirc the reason they havn't is because they no longer have the right to the James Bond series.
