Microsoft Rare Replay (Xbox One)

Yeah Granted it’s painfully disappointing that Goldeneye 007 and the Donkey Kong Country trilogy is not on this game however it is what’s on the game that still works, Between Battletoads, Perfect Dark, Conkers Bad Fur Day, RC Pro Am, The two Banjo Kazooe Games among others that lineup alone is why it’s worthy! Here’s Hoping Rare quits messing around and gets back to being a good game corporation again one day!

Older games I have never played. Thank you. Put it in my collection 😁

I wanted one game off of this cd. And you needed a subscription to play it - killer instinct. All the other fav games load janky also- not recommended

Been a RARE™ fan for years. When I say that they put together a compilation of their best games, I had to get it. I was not disappointed. Some of the older games are absolute crap, but once rare found their niche; the games got better and better.

Great multi game, it brought back a lot of memories of my N-64. I definitely recommend this product, Great job.

Lots of games for very little coin. Fun, and somewhat nostalgic.

My family loves this game! There's something for everyone.

I understood I was going to be receiving a used product, the description stated used-acceptable. However, the disc has deep gouges and scratches, it has a corroded or burnt area, it even smells burnt. This product is unacceptable and I am requesting a refund!

Bel pacco di capolavori Rare, sono compresi molti bei lavori di questa software house nella confezione e alcuni che hanno contribuito a lanciare la fortuna del Nintendo 64. Ad un prezzo ragionevole si prendono una ventina di giochi da cui sicuramente una buona maggioranza troverà il gradimento di tutti. Per gli affezionati di giochi platform e avventura un acquisto consigliato

I'll admit straight away that the Super NES and N64 eras of gaming were dearly cherished on my childhood hugely to Rare's contributions over that timeframe; Donkey Kong Country and Goldeneye to name only a few because if I named more, we'd be here all day... So my verdict is more or less biased by default. However I've always took every game I've played over the years and rated it based on quality in all aspects, and as a homage to the history of this developer, the quality shines as golden as the original R logo. So, let's get started. What is Rarereplay? It's a compilation of games developed by, you guessed it, Rare. It covers games for systems back through to the ZX Spectrum, NES, N64, Xbox and the last gen 360. Aside from only having the odd game per system here and there (Grabbed by the Ghoulies is the only Xbox game included) the roster evens out to about 6-7 games per system, so there's a good chunk of era variety here. It's worth noting that Rare were originally known as ULTIMATE PLAY THE GAME in their Spectrum days. Admittedly the Spectrum selection is the one I've spent less time with, mostly because I grew up with the NES onwards and didn't have a huge window to the Spectrum craze, though I can at least ay they are grand in the sense that they're perfectly emulated with the laser like graphics and "bit bot" sound effects. The NES selection actually holds up very well as an addictive hook with the likes of PRO AM RACER 1&2, they're so simple in their lap based racing yet the quick yet light speed races keep you going for more, and the pre-race upgrade purchases give a tactical element. Battletoads is also a great addition with it's variable gameplay elements like beat em up and racing, though I must mention that the arcade version is a massive jump in quality; what with classic arcade machine music tracks and a wider selection of overall sound and voice effects, it's still as addictive and Rare do well to design games with concept art that doesn't age. For me personally, the highlight is the N64 selection. Jet Force Gemini doesn't get the biggest rep but that was my personal favourite game on that system ever made (sorry Banjo Tooie ;) ), but the likes of both Banjo games, Conkers Bad Fur Day, Perfect Dark to name a few, are already worth the purchase price at this point in time. Rare get a bad rep around their Microsoft buy-out era as it seemed their titles were lacking the punch or charisma of previous years, I couldn't comment at the time because I couldn't afford an Xbox or 360 around then, and my last Rare game was Starfox Adventures. But after getting a fee minutes in Ghoulies, I did find a massively addictive beat em up with another unaged el shade design and quirky music and voices (the voices of reminiscent of the garbled tracks from Banjo). The 360 titles aren't the best of the package but they're still warranted a play. Perfect Dark Zero and Kameo show a variety in gameplay as FPS and epic magical adventure, and Viva Piñata is a charismatic world of character that will eat your time! I've tried to describe small features about particular games as to give a feel of what to expect for those unfamiliar with Rare, and wanted to jump in with this compilation to see what the fuss is all about. But for the fans, whether it was Jet Pac or DKC that was your first game, you all know what Rare is about and how it's their very own culture, how they try to made everything in terms of genre and then some, and every game has a quality and magic to it that keeps it going over history. We all have our own memories of Rare, maybe some we missed out on (I didn't get to play Tooie or Conker at the time do this is a chance for me). So really, the big question is, is it a good selection of games and do they run well on the emulation software. Yes and yes. Only thing to note; basically, some N64 games are actually the 360 arcade versions that have been made backward compatible with the XBONE (Perfect Dark and Banjo mainly). So these games require a silver online account to install. However it's nice to play these games in wide screen 16:9. Conker and Blast Corps are still in 4:3 and retain the old framerate drops of the N64, but this didn't bother me, more so nostalgia of what the system was doing at the time and the games are so immersive and awesome that I forgot about those issues. Jet Force had a pre-built backup for these hd days, it had widescreen support on the original cart so pop that on in the options and you'll have a better visual experience. And for any Jet Force fans, Rare released a patch for a different control scheme which I highly recommend,it's a game changer :) So that's it, a great selection of games from an all time favourite developer, highly worth the current price!

Das game kam pünktlich wie angegeben. Der Zustand ist top. Sowohl die Hülle als auch die disc.

Super collection de jeux rétro qui me ramènent à mon enfance. Les graphics sont franchement pas mal, et je n'ai pas remarqué de bugs. Super collection de jeux.

Broken box, did not open the seal as it might be broken to.
