Here's a new Q&A from Voodoo Extreme:
Q: Is Microsoft canceling Kameo: Elements of Power?
A: Both Rare and Microsoft Game Studios are committed to bringing Kameo: Elements of Power to fans and to a wide audience of gamers. We will keep fans posted on the games development as updates become available.
Q: Is Kameo: Elements of Power still coming out on Xbox?
A: Development on Kameo has resulted in many changes including improved look of characters and enhanced gameplay features. Those modifications along with a postponed launch date are the only changes Microsoft Game Studios has announced. We will keep you posted on additional developments as they become available.
Q: When is Kameo: Elements of Power coming out?
A: A new launch date has not been announced. Rare and Microsoft Game Studios are committed to delivering a great gameplay experience with Kameo and wont release it until they feel theyve accomplished this. Stay tuned for an announcement on a new launch date.
Q: How is this going to affect the release of future Rare games like Perfect Dark Zero?
A: The Kameo development team is hard at work on getting the game ready for fans. This hard work, in no way, affects development of other Rare or Microsoft Game Studios titles.
Q: Why is Kameo: Elements of Power being postponed? Is it because Grabbed by the Ghoulies didnt live up to expectations?
A: Kameo is being postponed so that the team can focus its efforts on incorporating new gameplay elements that we all feel will deliver a great gameplay experience for serious and casual gamers alike.
Q: What changes to Kameo can we expect to see as a result of the postponed launch date?
A: Kameo has been through a lot of changes since fans first saw it on Xbox at E3 2003 including a radical new look. Neither Rare nor Microsoft Game Studios are ready quite yet to talk about additional changes to the game. We will keep fans up to date on developments as they are solidified.
Q: Whose decision was it to postpone Kameo: Elements of Power?
A: Postponing Kameo was a joint decision by both Rare and Microsoft Game Studios. Both are committed to the game and felt it was best to postpone the launch to focus on ensuring a great gameplay experience for fans and gamers.

It should be obvious why this game was delayed. Since it's on the Xbox/Xbox2 now, Kameo needs a futuristic war environment and the main character needs a boob job.

So it's heading to PS2?Q&A session said:
Translation: No. It'll become a Xbox2 launch title where it's only hope of success lies. All launch titles sell a lot more than usual for obvious reasons.
Translation: I said Xbox2 launch!! You fucking deaf?
Translation: Uhm....they're separate teams, dumbass.
Translation: Sudeki bombed
Translation: Well with any move to a new platform, the game will get overhauled in the graphics department. Oh and there may be a sex change involved as well
Translation: *Sigh* Does it matter?

No surprise here. I dig this game's graphics very much, but I HATE the visual design, it looks so cheap and generic. Conker is the way to go now.

What if they don't? MS paid 300 Million for... Grabbed by the Ghoulies...? in the first two years. Hey, they might get a port of a 4 year old game sometime soon, too. When/if PD ever comes out, maybe it'll be different. But that;'s a loong ways away, and I'm sure Nintendo has put their money to use by now.
Indeed. I'm a huge fan of Rare but even I have limits.Razoric said:
I bought my Xbox for Rare's games, but so far they have only given me Ghoulies. Sure it was enjoyable but far away from expected. I'm actually beginning to think they've lost all the talent. Until they've proven me wrong, they are dead.
lol. lol. lol. lol. I'm somewhat surprised and yet, considering it's Rare, I should be ashamed to think this is unexpected. In over 2 years with XBox, Grabbed by the Ghoulies and maybe, maybe, maybe (with Rare you have to say maybe unless the game is actually in your hand) a Conker with some XBox paint. What the heck are those hundreds of people at Rare doing with their time?!?!?! The handheld division has almost no one and they release more games than the XBox teams!!
Not necessarily my view, but passed on from a Canadian friend: "it's rare our games have a decent framerate"

I doubt it'll be a Xbox2 launch title.

This reeks of the Dinosaur Planet/Star Fox Adventures thing though.
They redesigned that and switched platforms, but Rare still couldn't make the launch.

DFS, for imitating the beyond reproach Keroro Gunsou, Rawk Hawk approves your comments.
On a more serious note, why does Microsoft assume Kameo has a fanbase? Is there anything left of the game I played on the Gamecube way the hell back in what was it, 2001 or 2002?
WTF Man!?? Why does it seem like a lot of you WANT Rare to fail? What do you gain from them not being as great as they used to be? Why would you want one of the Top game developers EVER to die? Just give them some time. Capcom isn't what they used to be, but you don't see people dissing them left and right.
It's not that anyone wants to see Rare fail... it's just that they're easy to make fun of. =PMrparisSM said:
Just seems that many people in here are just really let down that dev like Rare was once considered a powerhouse and now they have nothing to show except ports and so-so knockoffs.
At least Capcom shows that they can still make great and fantastic looking games (viewtiful joe and that other cel-shaded game about a fox or something).

Perfect Dark was Rare's only existing IP that really had a chance of selling on Xbox, and that clearly isn't coming anytime soon. Conker has a bit of a chance, but even though Xbox is in a better position than N64 was when the original was released, it's still pretty difficult to market a game that combines an E-rated aesthetic with M-rated content.
I think your all idiots for being so fucking short sighted.
Conker a rehash? At first yeah, Not now. Its got a brand new multiplayer mode bolted on. Graphics, sound, dialogue are all being redone. There ofcourse will be some updated humour too (like the piss taking of Edge)
And the majority moaning are the nintendo fans. Who bring up the stupid "Made out like bandits" in every Rare thread. As if you guys were looking foward to Kameo in the first place. So tired of your bullshit.
