We'll still have our grand platforming adventure, it'll just have modern graphics AND a modern soundtrack. Bringing platformers into this generation. I like to imagine if Grant could have a live orchestra back in the 90's, they absolutely would have. He tried to mimic real instruments as best he co...

All of the characters in Diddy Kong Racing (save Diddy himself) made their debut in that game. Plus, Playtonic has said that they will fill Yooka-Laylee with characters that can (and very well might) lead their own games. I like Taylor 's overall timeline.

I agree with Scrubber . I think the new something "uniquely Rare" will be something new and unique, hence a new IP . Anyone who's been following Rare closely these past few years is probably aware of the many Rare IPs that are either passed on to new developers ( Killer Instinct , Conker's...

I looove the Kameo soundtrack. I still listen to it a decade later. So, needless to say, I'm looking forward to what he does here.

I'm so pleased David Wise, Grant Kirkhope, and Steve Burke are all involved. This is going to to be a sonic treat.

I think camouflage would be great! (Obviously. Check the username. :P) As mentioned already, camouflage could be utilized for: • Color puzzles • Temporary invulnerability to certain conditions I think camouflage could also be useful for: • Evading enemies • Confusing prey and predators • Shaped-base...
