Well okay then, and thanks for reminding me of that. So Rare was with Nintendo from the start, and from what I understand were actually working on N64 titles from before the N64 launched (like Goldeneye). That played a part. On the other hand Rare was working on GCN titles until it had to shift it's development a year after the XBox launched, so that would have an effect as well...
Well, the fact is that I still think Rare released more than 2 games every 3 years while under Nintendo. They were making some Gameboy games too during the N64 days, so that doesn't quite explain the holdup as well as I thought before...
Eh, so far it would seem that, at the very least, Rare was bought for 360... Maybe they'll pick up development speed to what it was before (and ya know, I really don't have any complaints about that :D) and the 360 may end up with Banjo KazooThree or something.
