In Part III of Newsweek's interview with Microsoft's Peter Moore he pays tribute to Rare's recent product history, defending the developer against claims that its output has struggled to keep touch with the critical and commercial successes of its output prior to its acquisition by Microsoft.
He describes Xbox 360 launch titles, Perfect Dark Zero and Kameo: Elements of Power, as having a "platform-driving presence" and how things were gonna be different for this generation with games like Kameo and Viva Pinata appealing to a different type of audience.
He also mentioned that Rare have a unique British sense of humor which he respects and how one of their strengths is their ability to come up with "great ideas for games that are potentially a little off-center."
