As a part of their latest GT Countdown entry, Gametrailers rounded up their picks for gaming’s finest (ten) years. Unsurprisingly, the years 1997 and 1998, both years of what many consider to be some of Rare’s greatest titles, made the list- specifically, Goldeneye (1997) and Banjo-Kazooie (1998).
2005 was also listed, being the year of Conker: Live and Reloaded, as well as the Xbox 360 launch titles, Kameo: Elements of Power and Perfect Dark Zero. Click the link below to see for yourself. Don’t worry, folks, my links are Rick-Roll Freeâ„¢!
Throughout Rare’s many years as a development studio, they’ve created some of the greatest games to ever be released on a variety of consoles. Donkey Kong Country, Banjo-Kazooie, Killer Instinct, Conker, Perfect Dark, Goldeneye, and Viva Pinata are but a few–and I mean few–of these titles. A full list of all of Rare’s games is available to make your choosing easier.
For myself, I have to say Banjo-Kazooie. The story told, the great gameplay, outstanding memorable soundtrack, the magical charm…I could just go on and on. It’s a mixture of these things and so much more that has allowed Banjo-Kazooie to become my personal favorite game that Rare has developed to date.

A couple of weeks ago, Banjo 360 was shown to select media in Rare’s Twycross HQ. What media and information regarding the game that was revealed has been kept tightly underwraps. That may soon be changing. A member at Neogaf is reporting that the embargo is to be liftedon May 13th, meaning that everything the media was shown can be unleashed upon the world. Ladies and gentleman, the time is upon us. A possible mere 3 1/2 weeks to go…can you withstand the wait?
One thing I usually try to do is avoid posting anything that doesn’t relate to Rare. I’m just going to have to make an exception this time. It’s no secret that I’m not much of a Halo fan, but Bungie does deserve credit for allowing Halo 3 to be such an incredible way to customly create your own videos thanks to the save capabilities. Enjoy this video: Halo meets Nintendo.
