Perfect Dark reboot canceled.
Layoffs at Rare.
Gregg Mayles and Lousie O’Conner gone.
This hurts. We need to stop pretending Xbox and Microsoft have not mismanaged Rare IP and have been consumed by profit at all cost. Please support Yooka-Replayee, just don’t buy it on Xbox.

The awesome thing about the L.O.G. Cast being in Spotify is you can listen right from your Xbox while you play Sea of Thieves. 😛

Finally managed to snag a Series X on the GameStop restock today. I can’t wait for it to arrive so I can play Banjo-kazooie In 4K 60fps HDR, which is clearly the man reason why one should buy a $500 next gen game console.

Why is this game not backwards compatible, @Xbox ? It’s a first party xbox studios published game with a beloved @RareLtd IP. (Though not developed by them.) legit almost forgot it was a thing because it’s been locked to the 360 all these years. #FreeThePartyAnimals

Speaking of these new/old episodes, I’d like to cast special spotlight on this one: we had planned to release a GBTG audio drama in October 2017. Written by @ClayHoward and narrated by @rare_fanatic.Please enjoy the surviving table read for the first time!
