I almost have an heart attack when I saw this news about BK remake! I wondered why Rare allowed other third-party developer to make a remake of their game like Banjo-Kazooie?

I don’t know why Rare would let a third-party developer handle Banjo on the Live Arcade, but perhaps they have got to much going on in their offices…
